IQNATURAL Jamaican Black Castor Oil for Hair Growth and Skin Conditioning [REGULAR]- 100% Cold-Pressed 4oz by IQ

I used it on my face, came out in eczema patches. Using it on my scalp for alopecia areata, time will tell

I have naturally light blonde 3A/3B very curly fine hair. I generously apply this directly to my scalp using the dropper and basically spend half an hour to an hour massaging it in with my fingers. It smells terrible to me, and I typically like earthy/strong smells. It smells like ash and cigarette smoke. It's also surprisingly viscous and thick (and as far as I can tell, all JBCO is like this). I could never leave it on my scalp for more than 8-10 hours overnight lest I look like I haven't showered in years. I believe this is a fairly universal experience for people with fine hair using JBCO, but so far it seems to be worth it. I leave it on my scalp overnight alongside Olaplex (two times a week) and wash it off in the morning. My scalp is no longer over-producing oils and feels more conditioned and soft to the touch. I've noticed that on the days after I use JBCO, the curls in my hair are INCREDIBLE. My hair is shiny and bouncy. No oil residue or anything of the sort gets left over either and the smell quickly dissipates after washing it out. I feel like in terms of overall scalp conditioning and nourishing, the benefits of this outweigh the unpleasantries of using it, and I'd wager that scalp health contributes greatly to hair growth!

I have very little hair, and it's VERY fine. All my life, every time I run my hand through my hair, no matter how many consecutive times, it would come out with at least five hairs between my fingers (even though I have very straight hair, with no knots). It's a wonder I wasn't already bold. So I finally decided to do something about it, and I bought this oil and vitamin E, plus argan and jojoba oils to disolve this one (I read in the reviews it's difficult to manipulate if you don't mix it a bit). I have to tell you, I am very skeptical when it comes to a product's performance, even if I see some small changes. I have no excuse with this one. I can't stop running my fingers through my hair (I probably should, though), because if I catch any hairs in my hand at all, they are maybe two hairs every ten times. Those were immediate results. It stopped my hair from falling. I don't have to clean the hair stopper in the drain EVERY TIME I take a shower. I'm still waiting to see more or longer hair (I've been using this oil four times a week before going to sleep for three months now), but maybe it's there and I don't see it. Anyway, from what I read, people start seeing results in that area after about three months of every day use, so I guess it's fair to wait a little longer. Also, because I'm an impatient mess, I decided to try it on my eyelashes when I bought it, because I figured it would be easier to see some results there than on my head. So I have applied it on my lashes every night before sleep. Now I have fabulous lashes, they are very noticeably longer, and my hair doesn't fall off. Couldn't be happier.

Reasonably priced, thick and smells good. Works well for what is needed.

Been using for less than 2 weeks. I will say that my hair does feel softer. The SMELL, however, is like laxative castor oil. It definitely is NOT unscented. The good thing is my hair did not smell bad afterwards so I will definitely keep using. It is very thick so you don't have to use a lot.
