Butters are great sealants and by sealants I mean products that lock in the moisture after moisturizing. You can either use a butter or an oil to keep the moisture locked in. There are a variety of butters out here that not only lock in the moisture but also strengthens the hair, adds Shine to your hair and stimulate growth.

Hair Oils.

Oils are great sealants, preshampoo Treatment, growth stimulators and for hot oil treatment. After moisturizing you apply the oil to lock in the moisture. For preshampoo Treatment, you apply the oil before cleansing to minimize the stripping effect of shampoos. They also help regrow edges and stimulate growth by massaging your scalp with a growth stimulating oil.
