Batana oil for hair is wonderfully versatile. Here are the most popular ways to fold our 100% pure, cold-pressed batana oil into your routine.

1. As a pre-wash treatment

Warm a small amount between your palms, then massage it into your scalp and work it through to the ends. Leave it on for 30 minutes or more before shampooing. This is a lovely way to let the oil deeply moisturize and condition before washing.

2. As a leave-in for shine and frizz

On damp or dry hair, smooth a few drops through your mid-lengths and ends. Batana oil softens, adds shine, and smooths frizz, making it a great finishing touch.

3. As a scalp massage

Section your hair and gently massage the oil into your scalp with your fingertips. Many people find this a relaxing, grounding part of their weekly ritual that leaves the scalp feeling conditioned and comfortable.

How often?

Two to three times a week is a great starting point, or simply use it whenever your hair could use a little extra softness and shine.

A little goes a long way

Because it’s unrefined and concentrated, you only need a small amount. Start with a few drops and add more as needed.
