Melt shea butter slowly and gently. It is very important not to overheat it because too high temperatures will ruin all the butter’s healing powers.
Mix the liquefied butter with the water with ashes. Stir gently and continue heating the mix using either a double boiler or heatproof bowls and the steam temperature.
