Review summary

Customers describe this MBOAH Batana oil as a thick, caramel coloured butter that melts in the hands and works easily into the scalp and lengths. Many like that it is unrefined and that a little goes a long way, so the compact 120g jar lasts. Reviewers say it leaves dry ends softer and the hair looking fuller and healthier with regular use, and several keep it as part of a few times a week routine. A handful bought it as a gift. How quickly people notice a difference varies.

Melts right into the scalp

I was surprised it is a thick butter and not a runny oil. You scoop a little, warm it in your hands and it just melts into the scalp. My ends feel so much softer after a few weeks and it does not drip everywhere like the oils I tried before.

So glad the butter texture is working for you, Marisol. Warming it in the hands really is the trick.

A little goes a long way

I almost used too much the first time. You really only need a small scoop. I massage it into my scalp a couple of times a week and draw the rest down the lengths. The jar is small but it is lasting me ages because you use so little.

Good for dry ends

My ends were dry and a bit brittle. This thick caramel butter coats them and they feel smoother now. It is rich so I keep it mostly on the lengths and use a light hand at the roots. Happy with it as a leave in a few times a week.

My curls drink it up

I have curly hair that always wants more moisture and this really helps. The butter warms up and spreads through without dripping. My curls look fuller and feel softer the morning after. I leave it in overnight sometimes and rinse on wash day.

Curly textures really do love a rich butter like this, Aurore. Thanks for the lovely note.

Simple scalp routine

I wanted something easy and this is it. Scoop, warm, massage into the scalp, done. No mess, no drips. The texture is like a thick balm that melts. My hair looks healthier and the scalp feels better since I started a few times a week.

Rich and unrefined

I liked that it is 100 percent unrefined with nothing else added. It is a proper thick butter so you have to warm it. Once you do it goes on smooth. I use it as a pre wash treatment before shampoo and my hair feels softer afterwards.

Ends look fuller

After about a month of using it a few times a week my lengths look fuller and the dry ends are not as straw like. I warm a small amount and work it from scalp to tips. The caramel colour does not stain or anything, it just melts in.

Lovely scalp massage

Using this for the scalp massage has become my favourite part of the week. The butter melts between the fingers and the slow circles feel great. My hair looks healthier and the small jar means it sits neatly in my bathroom shelf.

A slow scalp massage with the warm butter is exactly how we love to use it too, Soledad.

Best on damp hair for me

I found it spreads easiest when I put it on damp hair after a wash. A small scoop warmed in the hands and drawn through the lengths leaves them soft without feeling heavy. I keep it to the ends mostly. The jar is compact and travels well.

No more drips

The thing I like most is that it is a butter not a liquid, so nothing runs down my neck like the oils I used before. You scoop, warm and massage. My hair feels conditioned and looks fuller. Started with too much, now I use very little.
