Recipe for Rosemary Hair Butter
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of shea butter
1/4 cup of coconut oil
2 tablespoons of castor oil
10-15 drops of rosemary essential oil
Optional: 5 drops of peppermint essential oil for additional stimulation
Tools:
Glass bowl
Saucepan or pot
Whisk or electric mixer
Container for storage
Instructions:
Prepare the Base:
Combine shea butter and coconut oil in a glass bowl. Create a double boiler setup by placing the bowl in a saucepan filled with water.

Add Oils:
Remove the bowl from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Stir in the castor oil, known for promoting hair growth, thickening hair, and providing nutrients to the scalp.
Mix in Essential Oils:
Add the rosemary essential oil to the mixture. Rosemary oil is excellent for improving hair thickness and growth by enhancing cellular generation.
If desired, add peppermint essential oil for its invigorating effect on the scalp and ability to promote blood circulation.
Whip the Butter:
Allow the mixture to cool until it starts to solidify.
Use a whisk or electric mixer to whip the butter until it reaches a light and fluffy consistency, similar to frosting.

Apply a small amount of rosemary hair butter to your scalp and hair 2-3 times a week.
Gently massage the butter into your scalp to enhance blood flow and ensure the nutrients are absorbed.
Leave it on for at least 30 minutes or overnight for a deep conditioning treatment.
Wash out using a gentle shampoo.
