Fill a large bowl with cold water and add a few ice cubes. Place the bowl with all the ingredients inside the water and whisk while the oils* cool. I would suggest an electric whisk over hand whisking if sanity is important to you! It will take a few minutes but eventually the mixture will go cloudy then it will start to resemble heavy whipped cream. You can stop at this stage or you can continue until the mixture is fluffier.
You will be left with a lovely fragrant fluffy mass that you can now decant into the storage container of your choice.

I whip my shea butter with coconut, grapeseed and jojoba oil. I’ve read about the LOC Method (I spritz with water, apply Cantu Shea leave in then my Shea mix) my question is I read with the the LOC method you should apply the oil of your choice then you can seal with Shea. Should I apply a seperate oil then my Shea mix or am ok with the oils being mixed in?

LOC is liquid, oil then cream but some people do it as LCO too where you put the oil as the last layer. You can try it both ways to see what your hair likes better, it’s not a one rule fits all thing 🙂
