Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla Pure Hair Oil for Curly, Wavy or Natural Hair, Hot Oil Treatment & Deep Conditioning Treatment for Dry, Dull or Brittle Hair, 4.3 Fl Oz

I use this product on my hands while scrunching out my gel cast. I wish I could just bathe in it because it smells so good.Edit 6/3/2020 - the formula has changed. The photo on the listing was changed to "softening hair oil" but I received "replenishing hair oil" which is still different from my previous bottle which reads "pure hair oil." I'm not sure why the packaging label differs so much but it's obvious they have been tweaking the formula. I noticed that looking at the ingredients several things have been added that are not updated here. According to curls bot, ingredients are still CG friendly.My hair likes this formula better. I am a 2b/2c wavy that had to really be careful with the old formula to prevent weighing down. I still use a tiny pea size dot but it seems to feel lighter on my hair, and is easier to distribute. My hair feels even softer than before and very moisturized. Many thanks to this brand!

I FREAKING LOVE THIS OIL! I stopped being a fan of Carol's Daughter many moons ago. She sold her company off and it just was no longer for African American hair. I ordered from that company when they were a little place in Brooklyn and all her items had to be kept refrigerated so I was there at the beginning. But then one time I used a product and it turned my hair into straw. So I stayed away from all of her items. BUT somehow in my all my natural hair product junkie tendencies I decided to give this one a try. This smells SO FREAKING AMAZING! And I love the oil mixture. It doesn't have soybean oil or some other odd mixture. I am HERE for the ingredients. Anytime I place this in my hair it's like people are much closer talking to me just to get a whiff of this scent. I smell it so I know others do as well. The smell isn't overpowering and I just enjoy it. And I am a product junkie and have laid my hands on many products but I have to say this top's it in hair oils.

An amazing product. Softens your hair and the smell last for weeks. Not sure if it is good for dread locks, to help with the rasta look but definitely gives healthy, refreshed hair. LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

First i have to say read the directions! It says to apply to hair and let it sit for a few minutes then rinse and shampoo/condition and wash your hair. All the bad reviews are from people just putting it in their hair and leaving it throughout the day. It is meant to be used as a pre-wash!This product absolutely smells amazing!! Im obsessed with vanilla, the smell is really concentrated so from the bottle smells a little candle-like but after you put it in your hair it is pure blisss! And definately adds softness over-time.

I have very fine hair but a lot of it and this stuff is amazing. I've been using organic oils on my hair for the last year and a half bc I live in Spain and the water over here really is hard for your hair and scalp. I noticed a few months after when moved that I was starting to get dandruff, itchy scalp, and brittle hair. I was freaking out thinking I had head lice one week bc I couldn't itching. My husband was laughing at me of course so I decided to try different shampoos and oil treatments to help. I actually found this product while visiting my mom on vacation 4 months ago at Wal-Mart in cultural hair aisle. I grab it up while my mom was saying it wouldn't work on my hair. Needless to say a week after I bought it it worked wonders for my scalp.At first I used it once a week for 10 min then I changed it up to twice a week for 30 .....still my scalp was getting flaky so I started reading online about adding heat to scalp for oil treatments for an hour once or twice a week. So now that I'm back in Spain I actually have to use this 2x weekly for an hour with heat and I use need oil hair mask once in between these two treatments. This vanilla hair oil is the only oil that actually gives my hair volume everything else I've tried makes my hair so oily I have to wear it up. The need oil treatments helps balance with the brittle issue locking in the moisture better and relieves my itchy scalp. Hope this helps you guys and remember when traveling to different countries make sure to carry extra hair treatments....the water isn't like USA.

This product is amazing! I have very thick and dry hair and this worked like magic. It leaves my hair looking (and feeling) hydrated throughout the day. It also has a light and not overwhelming scent which is great. I highly recommend this to anyone with thick and dry hair!

I didn't like it. It didn't work for me. It felt like it weighs my hair down. Too watery but also sticky when applied. Smell is okay.

I had been buying this at Target, but they were out so I looked here. About the same price, so pulled the trigger. I love this stuff so much - I mix it with conditioner (any kind) for my hair, and I use it all over my body in the shower after I rinse cleanser but right before I shave. I put it everywhere, even places I don't shave, but I don't need a separate shave gel/lotion. Rinsing off will still leave a bit on your skin which for me is excellent especially in the winter. It also is amazing to put on right before I self-tan. Just a little, not too much, and it almost acts like a primer for my tanning mousse or spray with bronzer.
