Jamaican Castor Oil

I have relaxed hair. I purchased this oil because my hair is super-dry 5-6 weeks post relaxer. It seems that no matter what I do, both my hair and scalp are totally parched around that time. Breakage is inevitable. Over the years I tried many products in an attempt to combat the dryness. Nothing seemed to work. I read several reviews about Jamaican Black Castor Oil and it's benefits, so I tried a few castor oil brands that were a little lighter and scented. They were okay, but did not pack the punch of the heavier, darker blend. This extra dark blend is exactly what my hair needs. It is extremely hydrating and moisturizing. I add it to my scalp and hair after washing and to my ends daily. I only use it once per week (strictly on my ends) at the 1-4 week mark as it can make the hair heavy. It is the 5-6 week mark where my hair requires a heavy oil. Since I have been using this product, I notice less breakage and shedding. Even my hair dresser noticed that my hair was much more hydrated at my most recent relaxer appointment than at any other time. If you're looking for a sweet scented product, this may not be for you. It has a very earthy smell that is not particularly pleasant or unpleasant. If you want a product that delivers with managing dryness and breakage, this product may be for you. I am totally sold on the extra dark castor oil and it will be a part of my ongoing hair maintenance routine.

I went through a divorce and suddenly found myself with severe hairloss from the stress. I tried all kinds of shampoos, etc., but this inexpensive bottle of natural oil was all I needed to not only re-grow my hair, but it's coming in so much thicker and healthier than before! If you're struggling with hair loss, don't spend literally hundreds of $$ on pills, etc. Grab a bottle of this and watch it come back! It'll also help your nails grow thick and long and I also put it on my brows. I recommend the unscented kind. It's thick, so be prepared. I apply it in the evenings and let it sit overnight, then wash out in the morning. When I first started using, I applied ~3 times per week, now I'm 1-2 times/week (typically on my self-care Sundays).

Good quality product

Muy bueno

This is the first oil of any kind that I've tried that actually leaves my hair and scalp feeling soft and hydrated like no other oil has before. I've used other brands of Black Jamaican Castor Oil (JBCO) that just sits on top of my very low porosity hair. I've also used pure castor oil (not Jamaican Black), olive oil, coconut oil, argan oil, sesame seed oil, tea tree oil, all with the same result; an oil slick on my head and heavy weighed-down, very dry hair and sometimes with a very pungent (not foul, just strong) hair odor. Anything containing soybean oil is strictly off limits to me because it weakens my hair and causes outrageous breakage. Okay brand JBCO is PURE, JBCO is it's only ingredient, and the only oil that I plan to use. Also, my hair is growing so fast and my bangs have more than doubled their length in two months. Of course I'm nurturing my hair and scalp. I exfoliate my scalp every wash day and I'm kind and gentle with my locks. For example, I've switched from permanent hair color to temporary color, I generally heavily hydrate my hair throughout the week until wash day. I use leave in conditioners and then Okay's JBCO and I keep it in twists! I gave the front of my hair, my entire head really, a huge chop to get rid of damaged ends and I was left with an inch of hair pulled down my forehead natural, and about two and a half inches pulled down while straightened) it was short. I now have five inches when my natural hair is pulled down to my forehead and I don't plan to straighten it again for several weeks; not until it's time for my next trim. Always trim while hair is straight; I found out the hard way that trimming while natural can leave huge disparities in hair length. Summary: If you've tried other brands of JBCO and have been disappointed, try this one. You may be very pleasantly surprised like I was. P.S. It comes in a GLASS bottle so there's no danger of chemicals from a plastic bottle leeching into the oil! Yet another reason to LOVE Okay brand JBCO! Great for hot oil treatments too!

Great quality, but the smell and consistency isn’t great for hair oiling. Smells smoky almost and the oil is very thick. I will not be purchasing again.

This is the best black castor oil on the market in my opinion! It's thick, dark n rich, and is excellent in moisturizing! I add this with specific essential oils to create the perfect dark spot n skin tag remover and it works great! My friend used it on her daughter's wart and was amazed how well and how fast it worked! I haven't used this in any hair growth potions as of yet but I would bet that it would work amazingly... This really is good stuff.. I highly recommend

I refuse to believe that this stuff was not in the Garden of Eden. This stuff is a miracle worker. I originally purchase this castor oil based of a video that I found on YouTube on how to get rid of a corn on your toe. The lady spoke about this specific brand of castor oil so I thought I would give it a try. As I discovered while researching castor oil I realize that it healed a lot of discoloration on your skin so I thought that I would give it a try on other parts of my body. I wear my hair really short and I bleach my hair blonde. During this process my edges thinned out and the top of my forehead usually gets darker to the point to where I have to wear concealer around the edges of my forehead although I do not wear makeup on the rest of my face. So I thought that I would use this castor oil to try to get rid of the discoloration on my hairline. Along with that I found out that castor oil also helps you grow your edges back I have been without edges for a long time and had gotten used to not having any. Needless to say this castor oil has helped grow back my edges nicely , even out my skin around my hair line and on the back of my head where the clippers had caused darkening on the nap of my neck . After I seen that this castor oil did so well on my edges and on my hairline I decided to use it on my feet. I do have dry skin on my feet and each summer I have to find something new to use on my feet so that I can wear my pretty high heel sandals. This castor oil has given me the prettiest feet and has even even out the discoloring around the side of my feet I am not ashamed to show my feet now. I love looking at my feet now. All in all originally I got this for the corn on my feet it has helped with the color around the corn so the corn doesn't look as obvious. I am sold on this product and will continue to purchase it I just wish they had a larger bottle

Excellent product!

Superb ! Authentic and good quality..Midly aromatic too,not strong. A good buy👌

Livraison assez longue mais le paquet est arrivé dans les délais les produits sont soignés . J'ai trouvé le prix intéressant pour cette huile qui n'est pas facilement disponible en France À des prix raisonnables.

My hair is growing fast with this oil. It's thick and rich. I've been using it since around 4 months. My type 4 hair grows better than usual. I'm using the conditioner and shampoo too. I really recommend this oil.

good Castor Oil
