Jamaican Mango Lime Jamaican Black Castor Oil Exotic Mongongo with Cotton Tee 4 oz
Mongongo oil is the reason to pick this bottle over the rest of the range. It is pressed from the nuts of the Schinziophyton rautanenii tree in southern Africa, it is high in eleostearic acid, and it is not an oil you will find in many hair products. Cottonseed oil sits alongside it, and Jamaican black castor oil forms the base.
What that combination gives you is a conditioning oil that feels less heavy than plain black castor oil on its own, with a nutty rather than sweet scent. Use it on the scalp, on damp lengths as a sealing step, or worked into the ends before a protective style goes in.
Type 3b through 4c textures will get the most from it, since those are the patterns where the hair's own oils struggle to travel down the strand. 4 oz.

Application tips
Four ounces is a small bottle, so treat it as a finishing oil rather than something to soak the head in.
Part in sections and press a little into the scalp, then rub the residue down the strand while the hair is still damp from a leave in. Before braids or twists go in, run it over the ends of each section; those are the parts that dry out first inside a style.
Results
Hair takes on a soft, low gloss without the tackiness a heavy castor oil can leave, so it can go on in the morning without the hair looking greasy by lunchtime.
Dry ends hold their moisture longer under a protective style. The scalp feels less tight. The smell is nutty and dry rather than sweet, which suits anyone who cannot stand a perfumed oil.
