Jerusha Manoj Hi everyone, thank you for checking out my blog. I hope you found something helpful! I want to make a disclaimer that what works for me may not work for you and vice versa. I'm also still learning about my hair. This blog is to document what I learned. Enjoy the read!

Shea Moisture : Strengthen and Restore Leave-in

Shea Moisture : Strengthen and Restore Leave-in

When I first used this product, I thought I would hate it because of the word “strengthen”.

I stay away from products with that word because I have low-porosity hair. If you don’t know, low-porosity hair contains a lot of protein within the hair strand. That is why you want to avoid heavy protein-containing products (or protein overloading can happen). So when I see the word “strengthen,” it gives me an indication that the product will have a lot of protein.

However…

This product was great for my hair. Keep in mind I only used a little bit when I did my hair routine, and I only use it once in a while.

Now, would I recommend it? The answer is maybe. First off, I wasn’t able to use it alone, and it’s a hair butter. I am learning about my hair every day, and I recently found out that hair butters and heavy oils are terrible for low-porosity hair. I have been using that all my life.

Overall, though, I didn’t have a bad experience with this. But I feel like if I used it every time I styled my hair, my hair would be over-moisturized.
