Sky OrganicsBatana Oil, 4 fl oz - 100% Raw & Unrefined - Hair & Scalp Nourishment - Fatty Acids, Antioxidants, & Vitamins - Sourced from Honduras - Vegan & Cruelty Free - Hair Care & Self Care

It works, I just realized how much my locs have grown. I am from La Ceiba, and the scent takes me back to my childhood days my mother used to put Batana in my hair. I hated the scent then lol.

This wasn’t a two-pack of 4oz containers, and the title needs to be adjusted because I was very confused when I only received one 4oz container. Other than that, this smells like real batana oil. It has a nutty, roasted—almost burnt coffee smell, which is quite strong at first, then mellows out to a smoky scent; think charcoal grill. I haven’t tried it on my hair yet, but I did a test swipe on my leg, and the level of sheen and softness of my skin that followed was amazing. The skin I applied it on still feels smooth hours later. The oil is solid at room temperature, like softened butter, and is silky when melted. It absorbs into the skin very easily and quickly, and doesn’t leave a greasy film. All in all, I’m very happy this is the real deal and the price is competitive with other AUTHENTIC products. The only reason it isn’t 5 stars is because of the misleading title.

So happy I found this product! My sister-in-law lived in Honduras and raves about how Batana oil is the best to keep your hair and scalp healthy. It’s been hard to find except on Amazon and she warned me that a lot of the products there are fake or at least not made like the batana oil in Honduras. This one has the rich color and slightly Smokey scent which she said to look for. I’ve been using to oil my scalp and hair at night, then washing out in the morning. Just once a week for now. It’s too thick to leave in during the day. My husband doesn’t love the smell, but I kind of like it. Regardless, I also wouldn’t want the scent on me during the day. But that’s just me. My SIL has really curly hair that gets dry and frizzy. She likes to use it during the day too. She said all her friends in Honduras use it this way — and in their elbows and hands too, to keep them moisturized.

-10 stars. Absolutely smells TERRIBLE. Smells like they mixed a decade old ashtray with instant coffee to make. I washed my hair 3xs and it STILL reeks like an ashtray. I also lost handfuls of hair after I used.

Perfect 👌

The product itself is fine, it smells strange, almost a cigarette smoke smell, imo.

The media could not be loaded. Absolutely love this oil. It’s really thick and so I can make a hair mask and wear it 20 minutes to an hour before my shower washes out just fine. My hair feels great very excited for new girls and I actually like the smell. It has a coffee bean/ burnt smell!

The only reason I took off a star is because the bottle came spilled. It's winter and the oil is solidified, so it didn't cause that much of a mess. Other than that, the oil seems to be the real deal. It has a nutty kinda coffee bean smell to it. Before applying the oil you're suppose to heat it up by rubbing it on your hands. It made my hair feel healthier with the first two tries.
