Dry skin solutions...dry hair problems!

[Guest guest]

hi ellen-

just happened to be skimming the messages and saw your post.

i don't know if dry skin has always been a problem for you or just

since the surgery...but i have battled this my whole life...and it

has only gotten worse in the past 2 months since my surgery. i am

assuming that it is because of the fat malabsorbtion. i came across

my skin solution by accident. from drumming i would always lose a lot

of moisture from my hands and have cracks in the skin. when i began

drumming with africans, they introduced me to the wonders of shea

butter. it is a miracle solution to many skin problems. originally i

just used it on my hands and feet, but have slowly taken to using all

over. now, since the surgery, i have started using it on my face

too. the wonders of shea butter are really incredible. it is not

just the best mousturizer, but hypoallergenic, a natural anti-

oxidant, and it helps fade stretch marks too! if you want to find

out more about it, check out this page.

i have never bought it on the web, but you can find it most african

gift shops and some health food stores. (ellen, if we get together

this weekend, i will bring you some)

now here is my problem...dry hair. another issue i have been dealing

with my whole life, but has now gotten much worse. my mane feels

like straw! does anyone have any super solutions for this? i am

currently using aussie moist shampoo and conditioner, followed by a

leave in conditioner. HELP!
