Will Conditioner With Shea Butter Have Any Effect If Allergic To Nuts?

I have a allergy to brazil nuts, but I have been told to stay away from all nuts. My concern today is that I want to wash my hair, but the conditioner I normally use has shea butter in it now. Is it safe to use the conditioner not sure if shea butter is considered a nut

Of course if you are allergic to one type of nut you should be very careful while using all the products which contain any type of nut ( as the chemical to which you are allergic to might be present in nuts all together)
