Africans have known the secret of Shea Butter for centuries. They use it to moisturize, replenish, soothe and condition their skin. They use it for their face, hair and bodies. Treasured Locks' Raw Shea Butter is premium quality shea butter, imported from West Africa. Our Shea Butter is made using traditional methods, which keep all the natural goodness in. Quicker, cheaper methods produce shea butters that are lacking the essential components that make shea butter the ultimate skin care ointment. With our Shea Butter, Shea nuts are hand crushed, boiled and the shea butter is filtered- all without the use of chemicals. Our Raw Shea Butter is off-white to pale yellow in color and has a natural, nutty aroma.

Apply generously to face and body as a daily moisturizer and skin softener
Useful for treating minor dry skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, chapped or chafed skin. If your condition is severe or worsens, please see a doctor. We make no medical claims about Shea Butter. However, we have had several customers who are quite pleased with the results they have seen from using Shea Butter on these conditions.
Massage into scalp to soothe irritation and dry scalp
Apply to minor injuries, rashes and burns to aid in healing and minimize scarring

Raw Shea Butter at its best

By MH from New Orleans, LA on March 4, 2011

This raw shea butter has a delicate scent and is not greasy and easily absorbs into the skin.

A little goes a long way. This jar will last me a month.

Pros:

light scent and my skin absorbs it

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Great Stuff!

Shea Butter

By crystal h. from st. louis, mo on October 25, 2010

This raw shea butter is exactly what I needed. I was having problems with continuous dry patches, sometimes they were scaly. After a week the patches were clear. I admit it takes some time to use if you are putting it all over your body; bc of having to rub it into your hands for easy oil consistency; but overall all to me its worth it.

Pros:

leaves skin very smooth.

Cons:

container too small

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Raw Shea Butter- LOOOOVE it!

By Stacey Lampkin from Browns Summit, NC on September 30, 2010

I purchased three jars of the premium grade 100% natural raw shea butter from Treasured Locks recently. Although it is a bit pricey, it is totally worth it. My daughter is biracial (half Caucasian, half African American) and nothing has ever worked so well to detangle her hair so easily and effortlessly. It's the first time I have used something that just glides through her hair without having to wet her hair first. I'll never buy this product anywhere else...I'm a fan for life!

Pros:

too many to list! see review!

Cons:

cost

Good for very dry skin

By Courtney J. from Texas on July 23, 2010

My 2 month old baby's skin and scalp was so dry that I didn't know what to do with it. Her doctors told me to just keep her moisturized and it should go away, but it didn't. My mother told me to use the shea butter on her skin and now her scalp is much better and her skin is as well this is a very good product to use for dry skin or eczema.

Treasured Locks Raw Shea Butter

By LaTisha from Suffolk VA on December 21, 2009

This is the best shea butter I've purchased in a long time. I was using the Shea butter purchased from the African store (bright yellow). Once I completed some research I realized that it isn't pure shea but has a lot impurities, etc in the mixture. I searched in my area for shea and I came across your website with the information about the shea butter and the different types. I have used this shea butter and I can tell a difference immediately in the texture of my skin. It feels a lot softer and smoother. I add just a dab of scented lotion when applying so I can offset the fragrance of the shea butter. Unfortunately everyone doesn't think it smells as nice I think it do.

Pros:

great for skin. Great product!

Cons:

fragrance. Some people aren't use to the scent that I have worn it around.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Raw Shea Butter

By Asha from Conyers, Georgia on January 28, 2012

This is such good stuff! I use it on my hair, my body, I even use it as cuticle oil. It's a thick butter but take a little bit and rub it in your hands and it's easy to melt. I appreciate the lack of scent to the product as well. I put some on after I blow dry my hair and it just gets soaked up without any strong smell! I am very pleased with how this raw shea butter works, and at the reduced price it's all the more worth it!

Pros:

Softens and moisturizes my hair
Mostly scentless
Completely natural
Versatile

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Say hello to soft beautiful skin!

By kaushauw from mickelton, nj on December 2, 2011

I use this product as a facial moisturizer after using the black soap with shea butter. It keeps my skin moist n soft all day! And the scent is subtle enough to go unnoticed. I also found it to be a good moisturizer for my scalp. It has a very thick consistency, but if you rub it inbetween your fingers or on the palm of your hand, it smooths right out!

Pros:

subtle smell
easy to apply
good amount of product

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Great Moisturizer

By Ray from cypress, tx on October 7, 2011

I bought this for my hair, but instead started using it on me and my 2 yr old son's skin. In order to apply to your hair you would probably need to heat some of it up, it would quickly turn back to its normal hardened state. I love it for our skin, it feels sooo soft. my son and i both have dry skin and after just this one week I've been using it, it has softened our skin. The only thing is you have to scraped the Shea butter out with your finger and actually put it in the palm of your hand and rub it until it dissolves into kind of an oil like texture, but thinner.. it doesn't take long to do, but a little more time consuming than regular lotion. definitely better than lotion though, does not leave a greasy feel; you still feel clean! i love it, the best thing to do is try it and if it doesn't work for you then so be it, but i guarantee your gonna love it!

Pros:

-great moisturizer
-non greasy
-improves skin

Cons:

-how hard it is (but no big deal)
-HATE the smell (it smells nutty)

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Merchant Response:

Shea Butter does work fine on many people's hair. You would, of course, not want to apply a large amount.

THE REAL DEAL!! LOVE IT!

By MERISSA from JACKSONVILLE, NC on August 12, 2011

I DO NOT review products, so for me to take the time out to write this review, it says a lot!!

I am newly natural so I am really getting into natural products. I stumbled across this web site on my journey and decided to order this shea butter. I love it. I ordered (3) of them. I gave one to each of my girlfriends. Long story short, one of my girlfriends was recently diagnosed with cancer and went through Chemo which has altered everything about her body. As a result she suffered from dryness everywhere. She uses this shea butter faithfully all over her body. She was originally using pure vitamin E oil, which she liked, but she said (and I also notice myself) that this shea butter has done wonders for her skin overall. She looks great. I notice that it seems to bring blackheads to the surface when used on your face.

As for me, I use it on my face sparingly because I already have very oily skin and I notice that it brings blackheads to the surface to purify and smooth my skin. Also I use it on my feet faithfully and it has almost completely diminshed the caluses that were on my feet. I had corns from wearing boots all the time in the Marines, but I have seen tremendous improvement while using this product. I also use it to mix into my natural hair elixir for my daughter to moisterize her hair and detangle it. I mix it with pure coconut oil and sit the bottle in the sink and run hot water over it to melt them into an oil. GREAT!! Moisterizes and detangles with no effort.

Pros:

-smells nutty, but I like the smell for some reason
-it melts in my hands
-it provides great moisture for my hair, feet and body

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Excellent product!!

By Melva from BVI on July 26, 2011

I have used pure shea butter before. It was a much larger size and basically just a large clump of butter. I prefer yours because although I can tell that this too, is the real deal, it is much smoother. It also melts more readily ( when you rub it between your hands) when you get ready to apply it and there also is not such a strong aroma. I LOVE IT!!!!

Pros:

consistency
pure
no strong aroma

Cons:

too small
need to offer a larger size

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Great product

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!!

By PERFUMEGRL from queens new york on March 24, 2011

I use this on everything on my body! From the very first day of using this shea butter I noticed a difference in my hair and skin. It made my skin and hair feel so soft. And, my feet never looked so soft!!! I just wish it came in a bigger bottle. So I better be careful how I use this butter because I use it for every part of my body!!!

Pros:

I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS BUTTER!!!!

Cons:

THE BOTTLE IS A LITTLE TO SMALL FOR THE PRICE

I would recommend this item to a friend.

It Works

By Sapphire from Atlanta, Georgia on February 14, 2011

I use this product for both my hair and skin. Normally i have very clear skin, however i have been breaking out a lot lately. I applied it directly to my bumps and a less than a week later they were COMPLETELY gone. On top of that it leaves my hair and scalp extremely soft and moisturized. Microwave 10-20 seconds for easier application.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Treasurd Locks Raw shea butter

Makes the skin feel soft and nourished.

Cons:

Hard to get out of the jar.

Treasured Locks Raw Shea Butter

By Arlene from Groton, CT on March 5, 2010

I like this product and find it moisturizes my body very well. I even like its nutty scent. The only drawback I found it that you have to melt it in your hands, as it tends to be in a more solid form than your other products. I would recommend it to others because it's worth the effort.

Great!

By Karen from Clinton, MS on February 27, 2010

This is the only product that actually helps my feet to cease appearing like I work in a cement factory, especially between pedicures or during the cold months. Whenever I look down at my feet, I smile--whether I have on nail polish or not. It is great!

Pros:

Great moisturizer on rough parts; feels healthy & natural

Cons:

None--but may seem too shiny for some people. Though the shine lessens.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Very Rich

By Carol Smith from Chicago, IL on February 1, 2010

Great for heels and elbows

Pros:

great price
all natural

Cons:

none

I guess its not for me

By Jacinta Scruggs from Round Rock, Texas on January 15, 2010

We are all different in some way so I guess this product wasn't the best one for me.I am a 4B and read on another site that shea butters were best for my hair. I'll have to keep looking. People complained about the jar being too small but I actually think its a good portion for what it is and where it came from.

Pros:

I actually kind of like the smell

Cons:

Just wasn't for me

Recommended for dry skin

By Sameer Deshpande from Cupertino, CA on January 9, 2010

I applied it once to my hands and it did what most other lotions cannot do. Would definitely recommend to people with extreme dry skin and dry eczema.

Pros:

It works.

Cons:

Smell of raw butter is not appealing. Texture is also not pleasant. Little expensive.

Wonderful

By Rosalind Armour from Grand Prairie, Texas on December 21, 2009

I love the treasured locks shea butter. About a year ago, I was curling my hair and I dropped the curling iron and it slid down my chest and breast. I don't know what made me think of this, but I grab my treasured locks shea butter and rub it on my chest and breast where the burn was located. I burned my self bad. I continue to use the shea butter every morning and night. Today I have no scar from the burn. Great product I use it for everything I can think of.

Pros:

moisturizing - hair and body
healing
softens feet

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Just like in The Gambia

By Heather from Sterling, VA on December 12, 2009

This little tub of Raw Shea Butter is just like what I found in the street market in Serekunda in The Gambia. It melts in my fingers and I apply it to my bi-racial childrens' skin daily. The smell is strong - but shea butter has a strong and pleasant scent that fades to something quite mild a bit after applying. It leaves their skin soft and healthy and they love having a bit of West Africa in their morning routine.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Review for Treasured Locks Raw Shea Butter

By sharlene from NY on November 19, 2009

I Love this product. I really softens my 4C hair. It is thick and creamy. I normally melt it in the microwave for a few second to make the butter melts into oil then applies it to my hair. I find that it blends easier in my hair as a oil than a butter. If you want to try this, just take about a dime size and put in the container cover and and place it in the microwave for at least 40 seconds or until completely melted.

Compared to others, good texture

By Rahni from Greensboro, NC on November 15, 2009

I've gotten fair trade "alaffia" hand crafted unscented shea butter. Compared to that, TL's has a much better texture and you get it for a better value.
However I'm sort of wondering where TL's shea butter comes from.

Pros:

Good quality shea butter
Easily spreadable

Cons:

Is it socially responcible?

Review for Treasured Locks Raw Shea Butter

By Toni from NY on November 10, 2009

I like the texture of the cream but can't get around the strong medicine smell..Shea Butter usually doesn't have any smell to it

Pros:

creamy

Cons:

stinks

Merchant Response:

Raw (natural or unfiltered) shea butter typically has a "nutty" aroma. East African Shea has less odor. But, most shea butter has an aroma.

Great product

By Caroline from El Sobrante, CA on November 3, 2009

I have used this on my own curly (3b) hair, on my daughter's bi-racial (3b-3c) hair, as a moisturizer, lip balm and on the bottom of my feet. It has a "nutty" sort of smell, and you have to rub it in between your hands to make it "pliable"

Pros:

affordable
natural
multi-purpose

Cons:

smell?
texture

I would recommend this item to a friend.

treasured locks raw shea butter

By Jennene from Henrico, VA on November 3, 2009

I love the raw shea butter. I used it once and noticed my hair was very soft and manageable. The shea butter is also a good moisturizer for the skin, I used a little on my hands and I have very dry skin, and my hands were much softer after using. I also noticed a little goes a long way with this product. I would highly recommend this product.

Pros:

Treasured Locks Raw Shea Butter

By Dee from Detroit, MI on October 5, 2009

Just lovely. It is a good quality of western African Shea butter. I can use just this on my damp hair and get soft locks.

Pros:

Excellent for hair and skin. A pure product.

Cons:

The quantity is small for the price.

Melts like butter in the palm of your hands!

By Beverly from Bartlett, TN on September 22, 2009

This is not too heavy for my daughter's multi cultural hair. I like to alternate in between products, so we use this or the herbal pomade with great success. The consistency is perfect and it has a calm smell that won't interfere with sensitive noses! It really holds moisture in my daughter's hair.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

The Best Shea Butter

By Hansi from Houston, Texas on August 31, 2009

I didn't believe it would be delivered in its raw form but it was. I love it!! I use it as a moisturizer for my face and scalp. It's so light, my hair has a beautiful shine. I was apprehensive so I purchased one jar, now I will be placing an order for more to share with friends and to keep on hand for myself. Thanks for a wonderful product that really works.

I GREW ALL MY PERM OUT ONE AND A HALF YEARS AGO. I AM NOW GETTING USED TO A SHOLDER LENGTH HEAD OF NATURAL HAIR. ITS VERY FULL AND EXTREMLY HEATHLY!

IM SO N LOVE WITH BEING NATURAL AND USING NATURAL PRODUCTS! I'LL NEVER GO BACK TO HARSH CHEMICALS AGAIN!
