I did research on all of these ingredients and they all seem beneficial to hair! I was skeptical about the beeswax but from my web scouring, it looks like it is good for the scalp.

I have used it several times on my scalp with no adverse effects. Is there any reason why I shouldn't use it again?

I don't see a reason not to

If you dont think it is too greasy or heavy you should be able to use it as you please.

I don't really understand this post, did someone told you that product is bad? From what I see, it has better ingredients than most things I've seen around here, and if your scalp and hair respond well to it, I see no reason for you to stop using it :)

Sounds like it might cause buildup, but if you clarify every once in a while I don't see why there would be a problem in using it.

That's what I was thinking, too. :)

Well, the reason I am hesitant is because it is marketed as a "body butter" for body, face & lips. It doesn't mention hair at all. I was skeptical about the beeswax on my scalp too, wondering if it might be too "thick". I would think if it is really good for hair, why wouldn't they take advantage of that and mention it on the jar?

I guess the only thing to do is use it and see what happens! I will be sure to clarify periodically.

Well the beeswax and cocoa butter would deter me! But if it works for you then great. Be careful of build-up! Fine hair does need moisture just not so much during a conditioning session.

Probably 'cos people like me would be perturbed & not buy it :p I'm always wary of products that claim to do too many things, because I always suspect that they do lots of things OK, but nothing particularly well (^(oo)^)v

I have a body butter that I use on my hair!

Many products are too light for me, and my shea-based body butter was perfect. It does cause a bit of build-up, but to be honest, that build-up helps control my curls.

If it works for you and isn't causing a problem, go for it.

Why don't you try it and see if your hair likes it? It might be a case on instant hate, which is one kind of result. But just how do you want to use it? A product that works well for, say, a pre-wash treatment might not work out when used in another way. And what works for one person may not work for someone else.
So you will need to experiment!:stirpot:
