Vatika Oil... How are u using it?

[MsLizziA]

So I finally bout some vatika oil cuz I have heard good things about it but do I use it like any other oil?

What are some of its benefits?

 

[flowinlocks]

I LOVE Vatika! It's one of my staples. I use it as a leave in, scalp massage oil, and to press with. It seems to straighten my hair out a bit so you might want to beware if you are natural. It has a Coconut oil base so it actually penetrates the shaft. I also love the fact that this oil makes my hair very pliable.

Ugggh!!!! That oil stinks! I used to use as a pre poo treatment.

 

[BeautifulRoots]

LOVE vatika oil, I use it as a prepoo mostly.

 

[NappyNelle]

I use it as a pre-poo. The henna in it is strengthening. I love that it makes my hair darker, too.

Prepoo!...it gives my hair great slip to finger detangle dry before washing...its like instant...I always use a lil everyday during the week to nourish my hair, and it works great for pressed hair w/o weighing it down

 

[MsLizziA]

What kind of improvements have u seen in your hair since u started using it?

 

[natstar]

I actually love the smell of Vatika oil. I use it as a sealant when I DC and steam. Then I rinse. It makes my hair stronger IMO. I have to give myself more time to use it ( 6months) to really get an impression of the improvements its making to my hair.

I use it to seal in moisture.

[MizzCoco]

It makes my hair darker, softer and easier to detangle. I use it as a prepoo steam treatment.

I really love it... Great overnight pre poo.. The smell isn't so great though but it's worth using... Did I say it smell! It really helps detangle my hair before washing. Also gives me good shine.

Question:

How are you ladies using this as a pre-poo?? Are you saturating your hair with oil?? Is the hair suppose to soak up the oil?? Or are you just oiling your scalp??

When I pre-poo, I normally use a cheapie conditioner and apply it like a relaxer except I apply it root to tip. I would think that I'd waste a LOT of oil doing it this way and then to turn around and rinse it out, seems like a waste of money (it's not that cheap).
I'm still learning to see how this product will work for me...so far no luck
I just added it to my own concotion of condtioners all mixed in one....

natstar, do you apply your DC, steam, then apply oil right before rinsing? Or, do you apply DC, oil, steam then rinse?

 

[pattyr5]

This is my go to oil!!! i use it as a prepoo treatment, in my DC and to seal. I think it smells sweet...love the scent. My gray hairs have a bit of a reddish tinit to it...I consider that a bonus!

 

[MeowMix]

Oooo, I just got some the other day. I use it as a prepoo to. First I spray my hair with a mix of AVJ , grapeseed and avocado oil. Then I use the vatika on top and baggie overnight. My hair has been feeling baby soft

 

[natstar]

natstar, do you apply your DC, steam, then apply oil right before rinsing? Or, do you apply DC, oil, steam then rinse?

I DC, oil steam and rinse. Last week I started pre treating my hair with it solely. Ill see how that goes too

 

[Anne26]

Pree poo aswell, but only because it's heavy for my fine hair, or I'd use it for leave-in too. I adore the smell.

I only need a little blob to be enough pre-poo, the hair doesn't need to be dripping in oil. If you need a lot, I'd just use olive oil, which penetrates the hair shaft aswell, and it's cheaper.

I love this oil, I will use it for the rest of my days.
