Avocado Butter
Once upon a time in the days before everything was so commercialized and appeared in a bottle ready for immediate consumption, one of the best pomades that was used to stimulate hair growth and to give hair a glorious sheen was made from mashing the avocado fruit into a pulp and applying it to hair.
Today, we have become more sophisticated and advanced but we are still cognizant of the bountiful nutrients contained in avocados such as copper and potassium and oleic acid and a host of other vitamins and minerals. We get this goodness through oils, the fruit itself and avocado butter.
The avocado butter is made by crushing the fruit to produce an oil and then the oil is hydrogenated, giving a soft, green butter. The avocado butter melts easily which makes it ideal to absorb into the skin and hair.
