2024 2025 Pre Poo Challenge

I randomly oil my scalp with it. But what I have isn’t solely batana oil. It’s blended with pumpkin oil. I got it from Natures Ego because I’m in braids all year and wanted a reputable brand I’ve bought from before.

Thank you both for the info. I opened the jar, sniffed it, then closed it bc of the earthy/smokiness of it then said "Hmmm...how I'mma use this?!"
I think I'll use it as a HOT.

@demlew
That's how I'm using it. As a Pre-Poo. I'll also try it as a HOT in the future.

Umm...yeah....I know what you mean .....

I agree w/ the smell. It’s like smoked-earthy smell.

This is my winter/colder temps preferred oil treatment. Since I keep my hair in protective styles, I wear wool scarves & coats… I prefer not only giving myself hot oil treatments on wash day but I apply this oil 2x a week to help reduce breakage and damage my hair is exposed to.

Thx for this. Would you say the oil is more strengthening than moisturizing? I’m protein-sensitive and have experienced ‘overload’-like effects from shea butter, coconut oil, etc. Yeah…I didn’t research enough before I added to cart lol

It makes your hair stronger not harder in my opinion. Very identical to hard pressed coconut oil. You gotta scoop it out once hard, melt it between your hands, it makes for better manageability.

If you’re sensitive to coconut oil, you’ll be sensitive batana oil. I have high porosity hair.
