It all begins with an idea

What is Shea Buttah Paradise? Shea Buttah Paradise is an ode and a love letter to blackness. From hair and beauty, to community, to love, family, and to tha culture. We hope you enjoy this work of art we've been creating. It's been two years in the making, and the timing couldn't be more perfect than now.
