So fall is fast approaching and with the cooler weather means protecting our tresses against the cold and locking in that moisture even more. Many of you, myself included, seal in your moisture with oils; but when teamed with a butter can help seal even better to keep your hair looking and feeling right all fall and winter.
I swear by my shea frosting but I've been interested in possibly expanding my horizons and trying some other butters so I researched some other butters and am here to report
There are tons of butters so I'm going to make this a series doing 3-4 at a time.
* Murumuru Butter
I am really interested in trying this butter. I heard rave reviews about it on LHCF.
It's made from the nuts of the murumuru tree in the Amazons of Brazil. According to an article on Naturally Curly.....
-murumuru is especially useful to people of all ethnicities with kinky, curly or wavy hair because of its softening ability. Often, kinky, and some types of curly, hair feels coarse. Murumuru coats coarse curls, making them more supple and manageable. Products containing an appreciative amount of murumuru oil or extract are well suited to textured curls. Murumuru products moisturize the hair with lasting hydration, controlling frizz and defining curls.
The rich butter made from murumuru is a light amber color, with an earthen aroma. It is rich in oleic acid, which promotes health. Oleic acid-rich botanicals aid with moisture retention, benefiting the skin and hair. The emollient constituents in murumuru enhance the natural gloss of hair and provide sheen to naturally dull, kinky or highly textured hair. Murumuru ingredients also provide a healthy shine to chemically treated, over-processed or otherwise damaged hair.

* Sweet Almond Butter
It's made from almonds and is a light butter. So those with fine strands may appreciate this butter more. It has all the qualities of sweet almond oil, including restoring elasticity of your (skin and) hair.
* Avocado Butter
It is on the heavier side and is known to be greasy but a little goes a long way with it. The avocado fruit is expeller crushed to create this butter. It's very rich, "moisturizing" and has a small amount of natural sunscreen properties.

There are other sites I'm sure you'll just have to search for them.
Shawnystheone: Thanks for those suggestions. I will add them to the butter series.
