Place a small quantity of water in a pot and boil.
Turn off the heat and place a bowl of 1/2 cup of shea butter over the bolied water.
Watch it melt. You can stir with fork to quicken the melting process. Be careful not to overheat so as not to lose its natural beneficial properties.
Take down the bowl from the pot of boiled water.
Leave it to cool. It took more time that I presumed it should. So I placed it in the refrigerator to cool a bit but was careful to take it out at the right time.
Then begin to whip whip whip till it turns cream and fluffy. Yes, you are looking at your whipped butter.
If you choose to make whipped shea butter without oils, that is alright. lt will still turn out soft and creamy. lt is the whipping process that turns it soft and creamy.
To retain its full natural nutrients of the shea butter, you can mix with your oils in the unmelted form. lt might take longer time to get fluffy and much more longer time when whisking with hand. But the unmelted method is a better option when you want your nutrients intact.
Your whipped shea butter is a multi purpose product. lt can be used and body cream free from chemicals , hair moisturiser, frizz tamer, hair detangler, prestyler, hair growth leave-in conditioner and more.
It can last for more than 6 months. And can last longer when you keep it in the refrigerator.
