Dr. Adorable brand (found on ebay and amazon.com) I love avocado butter for my hair! I have been using it since September and haven't tried anything else until now :) I chose to give shea butter a try because it is soo popular! It is probably the most talked and raved about butter among women with natural hair :) Needless to say, I was very excited to give it a try and I wanted to compare it to the avocado butter that I have been using.
To my surprise, when I tried the butters out side by side( on my bangs lol), I noticed that there was not much difference between the two lol! They both perform almost equally when used straight from the jar. Although these two butters are VERY similar, avocado butter is still the pick for my fro :D It's just soo easy to work with and it does what I need it to do for my hair. My hair loves it! So what am I going to do with the shea butter??? Although my hair likes it, I think I'm going to use the shea butter for my skin... maybe feet, elbows, and knees lol! I'm really glad I tried it out :D Have a blessed day!

You are speaking my language. I LOVE avocado butter and it's my staple butter and many times, all I use! I have been using it since the early internet naptural days when "fromnaturewithlove" was the site to get it from (Oh, how times and prices have changed lol). Anywhoo, I get the Dr. Adorable brand too! I sometimes order from Etsy. I love it, thanks for sharing your review!

No problem Toy! BTW, here's the kind I get :) People have let me know that sometimes when they order from amazon the butter is hard. (There are different kinds :D)

Hey,Crystal.Thank you for the informative post!I just bought avocado butter from a local wholesaler after seing how well my hair responded to avo-oil last year some time.I mixed the hard butter with EVOO and applied it to my hair about a week and a half ago, but my hair still had the white residue the next day..Needless to say, I did not do my research prior to application, because then I would have seen "a little goes a long way"-laugh out loud!BUT WOW I was sooo pleased two days ago when I unravelled my twists and my ends were SUPER moisturised after only spritsing my hair thrice over the previous 10days!Wash hours(no more washday for me:)!) and detangling has been so peaceful. I thank and praise God this product is locally available, because my ends has literally NEVER been this happy!!...and my scalp is not itching anymore.My African hair is singing!!

Just a tip, use both mixed together! Avocado butter is an UNsaturated fat while Shea butter is a saturated fat. Unsaturated fats help deliver saturated fats....so your avocado will help deliver the fats from the shea butter into your skin and hair ;)
