Black people have used petroleum based products for years... It's not all bad... But it can be bad with overuse... If niccas in here are taking a third of the product, applying it everyday and not washing weekly, then of course you gonna have some problems with dryness down the line.

Nah, I wonder why half of non-moderation "us" dont have no hair, constant health problems etc... But don't get it twisted, I'm down with the non-petroleum based, too.

I use black soap to clean my face and shea butter as a moisturizer

What's the best shampoos and hair moisturizers to use? Right now I'm using creme of nature shampoo and just rubbing some coconut oil in but I just looked up the ingredients on the creme of nature and some of it is looking kinda

Black soap is great to wash your hair with too

I use Jamaican Black Castor oil to condition my hair

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

I don't use shampoo, just an ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar) rinse and then some butters I mix myself. I tend to lay off the black soap in the winter tho, it tends to become very drying. But I don't even trust these fraud USDA labels from Wholefoods and health food stores, I buy Nubian Heritage/Shea Moisture etc. cause they're black owned and I wanna support.

Just shea? You ain't even mix it with some oils or nothing?

I just mix a whole bunch of butters and natural oils and make it into a fluffy creme. That's it.

Just add a few butters like mango, avocado, shea, and oils like evoo, coconut, grapeseed, sweet almond etc. and then mix em until it becomes fluffly. I've become lazy so now I just order it online.
