I received the other Jamaican black cator oil I got from Ebay today and it's exactly as I expected. It stinks FAR more than the pure "Tropic Isle" stuff, but it had tea tree and hemp oils included, so that's to be expected. The consistency is thinner than the straight castor oil, so if you can stand the smell, it'll be nice to cut the original w/.
Yup...this product is REAL JBCO too, it's simply used as a carrier to make a great hair tonic. LO...I can smell the distinct JBCO scent even under the other strong EO smells.
Irresistible this is, as you say, a very strange oil indeed. Definitely worth playing w/ by itself and diluted, IMHO. If your daughter has hair anything like yours, y'all will get rid of this stuff before long even diluted!
This Ebay stuff has JBCO, sunflower oil, olive oil, coconut oil, almond oil, wheatgerm oil, jojoba oil, tea tree EO, hemp seed extract, rosemary seed extract, and vitamin E oil. It's 2 oz for $3 and I think this and Sams will mix nicely. (the link is on this thread, so go back)
