I had bought the buttercreme this summer.Since this was my first attempt at all naturelle , I did splurge.I put it away since I was trying a few other products rockin' a weave etc., but since this thread I took it out last night.What can I say other than :it works! My hair feels moist without being weight down. It is a superior product,and for $48 it better be ! So if it works for you and your hair ,it may be worth it since you don't need alot, the jar is big and you could easily spend 48 bucks looking for an alternative.
