Cantu Shea Butter Hair & Scalp No Drip Oil

Don’t know why I haven’t used this before, in the short space of time using it I have noticed a big difference in my hair, the softness, and my hair feels and looks so much healthier. The only issue is it’s so thick I can’t squeeze through the nozzle so have to uncap it and stick my finger in. But a small price to pay for a good product. I’ve ordered again because I like product but as mentioned before about the thickness this time it’s thicker I can’t even squeeze it out without the cap on and getting it out with small finger is hard. The bottle is also so hard you can’t squeeze it. Maybe company should think about replacing bottle with a jar to make it life a lot easier. I have so much left in my first purchase I can’t get out as it’s stuck to the bottom of bottle.

Love the product. Yes the squeezy bottle is stupid as its not really a runny consitency but i just squeeze it into the lid. Much easier to apply because its creamy and keeps my scalp moisturized. Smells great and doesnt feel sticky nor weird.

I really like this for my hair. I tend to mix it in with an argan oil and it does a great job of moisturising my hair and making it softer to style. I just can’t find a hair oil that does the same job. Now my problem is the bottle because after a while it’s hard to squeeze out. I understand you need to warm it up but I don’t have time at 6 am rushing for work. Wish they could do a version of this in a tub

Bought this for my itchy scalp which is due to having eczema. The product worked great at resolving my dry scalp and soothing it too and smells lovely. Sadly it loses stars on a) packaging (which I'll get to) and b) in the description it says "Great for use on hair extensions" but this is something I strongly urge you NOT to try! I applied this to my deep wave, curly, human hair extensions and this oil caused them to become super matted and frizzy. I shampood them 3 times and deep conditioned them plus put my usual leave-in conditioning creme on the hair and even after that I still had to cut 4 inches of length off! Honestly, this oil made the hair behave like as if I put strong hold hair spray on it - it became this stiff mass of matted frizz! I'm just glad my weave was 26" so cutting that much off wasn't too much of an issue. Secondly it lost points due to the packaging. It comes in a bottle with a nozzle but this product is Shea Butter. Shea Butter solidifies when it is cold so there's no way you're going to be able to squeeze it out the bottle! If this came in a tub it would be more ideal. In summer this will be more liquid and oil like but heave help you if you keep this in your bathroom in winter. My advise is - don't heat the bottle in hot water or keep it near a radiator because heat degrades molecules so the more times you do this, the ingredients will stop working so instead, poke a clean (no longer used for food ofc) chopstick or pencil into the solidified product. When you pull this out, it will be a thick paste on the stick and you can warm this in your hands or apply direct to your scalp. That way you're only getting out a bit at a time because also, a little of this stuff goes a long way. Will I buy it again? Yes I will but only for use on my scalp.

Great product.

This isn't really a review of its effectiveness, more a tip to get it dispensed. It's as thick as other reviews say, so to get it out I've stuck a dispensing pump in there which works well. If it gets too thick to even get through the pump, soak in warm water for a bit.

Really nice, used for tender scalp. Not too greasy, nice scent and not hard to use at all. Was weary of other reviewers claiming not to be able to get it out but its really no big deal, esp if you're a poc used to black hair products. Its like coconut oil, at a cold temperature its going to set, at a warmer temp it will liquify :) just place the bottle on your lap as you prep your hair to get it ready. Even holding it in a hand should be enough to get it running. I just wish the bottle were bigger.

Surprised that “glue” isn’t one of the main ingredients because each time I used this it was like putting Vaseline and Pva on my hair. Bought a range of cantu products to try, expecting this to be a liquid consistency but , as the other reviews state, it’s a totally thick waxy oily gel that’s extremely hard to get out of the bottle, there’s no way anything was getting through the nozzle. Had to wash my hair many to get rid of the greasy look (which the product states is the “glossy shine”), then I thought I could repurpose it as a shaving lotion. It was amazing for this however had to bin my razor and give the bath a good scrub afterwards bc it’s just so sticky!!! And impossible to get out without at least 4 washes. Ended up binning the bottle and will just stick to my hair syrup products from now on :/ the nice smell was the only thing I can compliment in this product
