African Pride Olive Miracle Growth Oil Treatment 8oz
The most useful thing about this bottle is not printed on the front of it. Olive Miracle Growth Oil Treatment comes into its own as a hot oil treatment, warmed and worked through the hair before washing, and that gives a genuinely different result from the same oil used cold.
The blend is olive oil and tea tree oil. Olive does the softening and conditioning, tea tree gives the scalp its clean, cooling note. Between them they keep dryness down and make hair easier to handle, which is most of what an oil is for.
Ways people use it:
- Warmed as a pre-wash hot oil treatment
- A little on the scalp between washes
- Smoothed over the lengths to bring dryness down
- On skin as well, since the same blend works there
8oz, and it stands up to daily use if you have the hair for it. Start with less than you think you need, particularly around the roots.

Application tips
Warmed, it behaves like a different product. Stand the closed bottle in a mug of hot water for a few minutes, then part the hair and work the oil along the scalp before taking what is left through the lengths. Cover with a cap for half an hour, then shampoo it out. Cold, a few drops rubbed between the palms is plenty for the ends on a dry day.
Results
Dryness comes down, and with it the roughness that makes hair hard to part and harder to comb. Olive oil does the softening, tea tree leaves the scalp feeling clean and cool rather than coated. Used as a hot oil before washing, it takes the harshness out of the shampoo that follows. The same blend works on skin, which is what keeps the bottle in circulation.
