Hey Kitty,
I don't know about the CVS Castor oil but the one at Walgreens is a small bottle, looks brown in color with a red and white label. It can be found in the laxative section.
Yes you can apply it like your greasing your scalp, another way is to use an applicator bottle with a fine tip. I will post that info later.
Add me for round 3 Hi BlackGeisha
ETA: this is my ending pic from challenge 2, that I am using for my starter pic this round. I decided not to trim my lead hairs
try mixing it with another oil
Thick but absorbs well and yes can be used on relaxed hair. Works wonderfully for air drying.
It's helping my edges. I massage it into my edges a few times per week.
Like BlackGeisha said, you can mix with other oils. I once had a sore scalp and mine came from scalp massaging. I was agitating the scalp a little too much. I use a fine tip (small tip) applicator bottle to apply the JBCO to ensure my hair isn't overly saturated with oil. I massage it in really good to allow the scalp to absorb it and end result, soft hair. Hope this works for you.
I do also! I don't trim myself so I am gonna make sure my stylist doesn't trim them off because ITA, I'm hanging on to every inch.I have a curious case of lead hairs too, and I'm not trimming 1 millimeter, I'm hanging on to every last strand!
Can I join? I'm using HAITIAN Black Castor Oil but I'm thinking about mixing it with Cold Pressed Castor oil because I'm having crazy itchies when I use it on my scalp. I like the way it makes my hair soft, though.
Platinum where do you buy your Haitian oil from? Can I get it online?
SAM'S CARIBBEAN Castor Oil - JAMAICAN BLACK CASTOR OIL (JBCO)Count me in. I'm ordered my JBCO 2 weeks ago from Amazon (the cheapest I found) and it seems they don't have it in stock . I'll be getting my money back but in the meantime where are you ladies getting your JBCO? And how much? I might just end up using the CVS brand if it doesn't fit into my budget.
