RA Cosmetics Natural Unrefined Batana Oil for Hair Growth & Repair | Nourishing Moisturizer for Damaged Hair - Strengthening Conditioner from Honduras, 4 oz

There are many negative reviews out there based solely on how Batana oil smells. Mostly because people don’t give it a chance to work. It is a natural product that smells like smoky coffee with a hint of chocolate and cigarettes. If you don’t think you will like that smell, please don’t buy this and then trash the product for it! Actually use it as directed! Make sure you buy authentic Batana oil from Honduras that is unrefined. I first used Batana oil about 20 years ago when I didn’t really need it. Now that my hair is thinning and breaking, I have revisited it and I’m extremely glad I did! I have been using it twice a week for the last 4 weeks - once as a 30-minute pre-shampoo treatment and once as an overnight deep conditioning hair/scalp treatment. It has helped so much! My hair is more hydrated, less breakage and shiny AF! I look forward to improvement in my hair and scalp with consistent weekly use! Give it a try with consistent use, you will be happy that you did! I will be purchasing this product again!

The butter is not oily or greasy, I use it on my body and my skin feels smooth. I would say it’s a good sealant for my strands but I need to try this product out for 6 months before I give a review concerning my scalp since I suffer with hair loss. The smell is a mixture of coffee and smoke and it doesn’t linger. Get a good amount of product for the cost and this should last me more than 6 months trial. I had to update the star ratings, I love the smell, burnt coffee caramel scent. I love the effects on the hair and body and my mom seeing results on her scalp, and I use it on my son's body. I use another genuine product but it's just 4 oz for almost the same price but if I am going to use it on my family I need a bigger container. This product to me seems genuine, it has the consistency color and natural earthy smell and its more affordable for 16oz. Avoid the Chinese brand and get yourself this.

This is a good product if you can tolerate the smell after the initial opening of the container. It smells like a mixture of strong cigarette smoke and strong black coffee. After that I found that the smell became less intense. I purchased it to help with some thin areas around the front edges of my hair line. Most of the reviews that I read prior to my purchase were good with the exception of them mentioning the not so pleasant smell. So I decided to give it a try, and I am so glad that I did because since the first time I applied it to my hair and scalp, I have noticed significant growth as well as thickness around the edges of my hair line. Although the price is a little costly,the product contrainer is a nice size for the price so I was pleased with that. The product straight from the container has a thick consistency but melts and absorbs quickly, so a little will go a long way. This product I am convinced will continue to improve my hair condition on my journey to obtain healthier hair from the results I've seen after only two applications. I found that it works better for me if I apply it as an overnight therapy prior to hair wash day. The smell takes time to get use to so if you can manage to get pass that like I did the I would definitely recommend this product for you.

I’ve been using this hair/scalp mask for a couple of months now and I really like it. It makes my hair feel much more smooth and moist and healthier after using! The only reason I didn’t give 5 starts is because of the smell…it doesn’t smell the best but the smell goes away after washing it once!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3 Years In Raw Demanding and Worth It Most people use this wrong and that is why they think it does not work. This is not a typical oil. If you treat it like one you will get bad results. Three years in and it still earns its place in my routine. I don't alway wash the oil out. That is the part most people miss. A little goes a long way. Some days I use barely a fingertip and that is enough. Your scalp will tell you when it is too much. PHOTO BREAKDOWN Photo 1 shows the real texture thick grainy and paste like. This is what raw batana actually looks like. Photo 2 shows how it sits in the hair adds weight control and a natural sheen without looking overly greasy when used properly. Photo 3 shows the jar for scale a little goes a long way. THE TWO CORRECT WAYS TO USE IT As a leave in i only apply when im out of the shower and my hair is damp. The oil melts quickly from heat of your hand and on your scaple. Dont start by leaving it in at the beginning, test it first because it can be powerful. As a deep treatment apply more generously. Leave in for 30 to 40 minutes then wash it out. Better for finer or straighter hair that cannot handle buildup. Frequency is 2 to 3 times per week or once weekly as a treatment. Start small. Too much will weigh your hair down and cause buildup. WHAT TO EXPECT Thick dense slightly grainy texture that melts with body heat. If it is smooth like lotion it is not truly raw. If it arrives melted put it in the fridge and it will solidify again. Solid when cool liquid when warm. Strong natural scent that is earthy roasted and slightly nutty similar to coffee or sesame. Not a fragrance it smells like a real ingredient. If it is too strong I sometimes mix it with coconut oil. Results are not instant. After consistent use I noticed softer texture less dryness better moisture retention and reduced breakage. It builds over time. WHO IT IS FOR Dry thick or textured hair. People who want a heavy duty moisture sealant. Anyone looking for a truly raw product. If you want something lightweight or low effort this is not it. VALUE Paid $48.99 in 2023. One jar lasts a long time because you use very little. For what it is the price is fair. BOTTOM LINE Raw strong and effective. Use it sparingly at first and let your scalp get acclimated. We do not all have the same sensitivity so take your time see how you react and find your balance. Batana oil is powerful and great for you when used correctly. Study it learn it and you will find your rhythm with it. I will definitely buy it again.

It does have a strong odor and discolors your skin. I have not noticed any difference

Im not sure how many stars to leave because I've never tried it. BUT. The smell is strong. In a "I work in a coffee shop" way. I personally like the smell. The texture is really solid, but melts with any type of heat. Kind of like solidified coconut oil. Its instructed to use as a conditioner and then wash out. I'm excited to use it. I'm sure the results will be AMAZING. I hope this helps 🙂

IF YOUR LOOKING FOR THE BEST RAW BATANA OIL THIS IS IT IT HAS GROWN MY HAIR AND PROTECTED IT FROM MY FLAT IRON AND I USUALLY DONT PUT OILS ON A SILK WRAP FOR YRS I USED AN SILK OIL AND TRUST ME A LIL GOES A LONG WAY WHEN I USE IT TO STR8 MY HAIR AND ON WASH DAY I ADD TO MY SCALP GENEROUSLY AND WASH IT OUT THE NEXT DAY THIS IS THE BEST ON THE MARKET HANDS DOWN THANKS FOR MAKING SUCH A GREAT PRODUCT AND VERY AFFORDABLE

Excellent quality and very hydrating. The hair becomes soft and live

Any genuine batana oil will make your hair look softer, shinier, and I believe this helped me fight split ends along with frequent trimming. I guess when hair is treated just like a garden (taking care of it from all aspects), your hair stops falling!

This is my second jar of batana oil .very good quality highly recommended

Awesome product. It's real. I could smell it as I started to tear the protective plastic. Thick and I noticed it's effect on my starving hair within minutes. Will definitely buy again!
