How I use our traditional Ethiopian women butter for long hair growth. Rubbing butter in your hair is an Ethiopian tradition that protects hair from the sun and enriches hair with moisture. Although it may sound strange, it is an incredibly moisturizing treatment that makes the hair feel much softer and look more defined.

Contrary to popular belief, you are supposed to not cook the butter before putting it in your hair. In Ethiopia, the butter that comes directly from the cow is what they put on their hair. Nothing more. Since many people do not have access to fresh cows, the next best option is to buy high quality organic butter as Lurpak.

All you need to do is untangle your hair first, place the butter in a container and slapping it in all the hair. And I mean everyone. Do not be shy. Make sure your hair has a healthy amount of butter worked on it. Get on a shower cap, wait about 30 minutes at an hour and wash it. Easy!

Let me tell you that my curls felt soft and seemed ridiculously well defined! I'm going to start doing this method every week because my hair is dry uber! If you do not have super dry hair, I stay to make this method once a month or every two weeks. My hair had no flakes and made my hair easier to handle and untangle.
