- 1). Comb out your clean hair and gently detangle any knots.
- 2). Apply a generous helping of Shea butter on the hair shaft and ends.
- 3). Massage the Shea butter into the scalp as best you can. In its solid form, Shea butter is not very pliable, so warm it in your hands if it doesn't spread easily.
- 4). Wrap your head in a warm towel for 30 minutes. The warmth of the towel insulates the hair and uses the butter to soften the hair.
- 5). Release your hair from the towel after 30 minutes and style it as desired.
