Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Detangler 8 oz — Leave-In for Dry, Damaged & Curly Hair with Sea Kelp & Argan Oil

SheaMoisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Detangler is a lightweight leave-in that slips through knots to hydrate, soften and reduce breakage for dry, damaged, or curly hair.

This detangler is part of SheaMoisture's Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing collection, formulated with Fair Trade raw shea butter, sea kelp and argan oil to replenish thirsty strands. It’s created to deliver superior slip so combing requires less force, and it can be used either before washing to loosen tangles or after washing to help maintain moisture and manageability. The formula is cruelty-free and produced with sustainably sourced ingredients inspired by a generations-old family legacy.

How do I use this detangler for best results?

Apply to wet hair for easier combing: start at the ends and work upward to avoid tugging and breakage. Use it pre-wash to loosen knots before shampooing, or post-wash as a leave-in to seal moisture and prepare for styling.

• Apply a palm-sized amount to damp hair, concentrating on mid-lengths and ends.
• Comb through with a wide-tooth comb beginning at tips, moving toward roots.
• Pre-wash use: follow with Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Shampoo.
• Post-wash use: follow with Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Masque for added hydration.

What makes this product suitable for dry, damaged, or curly hair?

The blend of raw shea butter, sea kelp and argan oil provides a rich balance of moisture, nutrients and slip without heavy residue. These ingredients help soften coarse textures, reduce frizz and improve manageability so curls and coils retain shape and shine.

• Raw shea butter: deeply conditions and smooths cuticles for softness.
• Sea kelp: helps replenish minerals and supports hair elasticity.
• Argan oil: adds shine and helps control frizz while reducing breakage.
• Lightweight formula: delivers 9x more moisture versus a non-conditioning shampoo when paired with the collection.

Will this detangler weigh my hair down or leave buildup?

Formulated to be lightweight, the detangler offers slip and hydration without a greasy finish when used as directed. Use moderate amounts depending on hair density and rinse during pre-wash use to avoid accumulation over time.

• Best for dry or transitioning hair that needs moisture and slip.
• Start with a small amount on fine hair and increase for thicker textures.
• Rinse when using pre-wash; leave in when using post-wash for styling support.
• Pair with the matching shampoo and masque to avoid product buildup and maximize results.

• Cruelty-free: not tested on animals.
