SheaMoisture Jojoba Oil & Ucuuba Butter Braid-Up Conditioning Gel is a super-hydrating, non-greasy conditioning gel formulated with jojoba oil, ucuuba butter, and carrot seed oil to soften, improve workability, and add suppleness so hair resists breakage caused by tugging and tightness from braids, cornrows, extensions, and weaves. This lightweight gel adds slip for ease of braiding and helps prevent breakage at the roots during installation and takedown.

Jojoba oil provides deep hydration to resist breakage, while ucuuba butter supports elasticity and softness. Carrot seed oil detoxes the scalp and promotes healthy hair growth with carotene and Vitamin A. The gel provides lightweight hold for frizz control, seals the cuticle for a silky finish, and prepares hair for braiding by adding manageability and slip.

Formulated without sulfates, parabens, phthalates, propylene glycol, mineral oil, or petrolatum, this gel contains Fair Trade shea butter. Perfect for protective styles including box braids, cornrows, crochet braids, extensions, and weaves.
