The batana butter (solidified form) is back in stock!!!!: If you wanted to purchase the one I'm using be sure to check out this link: amzn.to/3wMsEON Also, my results of the batana butter pre-poo are posted!! Definitely check out that upload ♡: th-cam.com/video/Itb5GhX8AIk/w-d-xo.html
@@jessicahensonspeaks interestingly, we apply mostly on the skin, and not hair. I am getting bald, and I will definitely start applying to my scalp. Thanks for sharing as well.
Yes I’ve heard about fake brands. I’m sorry you received one, I like buying products off Amazon for easy return if needed and in person. The Batana I purchased works well for me.
This oil has been produced and used in Ghana for ages. We call it 'Adwongo'. Our people mainly use it for cooking and sometimes on the skin. It's one of the cheapest oils to buy in Ghana.
does the texture of it look like in this video?? The Batana oil I get from Dr. Sebi's son Victor Bowman has a much grittier texture than in this video. I was listening to the video thinking this was the same but it looks just like another brand I got off amazon that Im currently not approving of.
This sista did a very good job of informing and educating those who seek natural hair improvement. Will be sharing this video and checking out your others. Is there a black man on TH-cam similar to you far as natural hair care?
Hi thank you so much for the compliment! I appreciate you watching the video 🙂. I’m not sure of black male TH-cam that make natural hair content, but if I come across any, I’ll be sure to follow back up with you.
@@jessicahensonspeaks thanks so much and I really appreciate you getting back to me.Keep up the great vids you are doing really great! i will keep up with your work dear
I've been using Banana oil for over a decade. First used the Ojon company( was sold on QVC) and practically everyone can use it ( if u have a nut allergy check with doctor). I use it from scalp to baby toe.
@@markharden1057 You can put in on your hair and scalp and rise it out as a prewash treatment. Or you can leave it on your scalp as oil and wash your hair whenever you normally do. Both work great!
Ok...FULL DISCLOSURE...I just bought a jar of Batana Oil and have started using it...I'm eager to see the results.....BUT..I just find it funny at time interval 0:42 a bald guy says "this WILL make your hair grow!" Apparently he ran out 😜Sorry...probably gonna get deleted for this but I couldn't resist! 🤪🤪
LOLLL, no this comment won’t get deleted 😂. See I thought about that when I was editing the video honestly, but Dr. Sebi was held in very high regard by a lot of ppl looking to find alternatives to big pharma and approach life/health more holistically. So I thought I’d include that in this video to show his stamp of approval. But hey, it’s working out pretty well for me so far. If you sift through the comments, some ladies have said it’s worked out well for them (and they’ve been using it wayyy longer than I have). Lol I get where you are coming from tho. Hope you see some results 🙂
I have been using Batana oil for nearly a decade. It’s a wonderful oil and stops shedding and breakage the minute it is used. And it immediately softens the hair! 💖💖 For a liquid oil, I prefer Ojon oil which acts similar to Batana but is liquid. This is a good video! I’m glad to see more people using Batana oil.
Aww that is awesome 🙂!! Yes I only recently heard about Batana oil. It definitely makes my hair soft and is something I’m trying to consistently weave into my natural hair routine. Thank you so much for watching!!! 🤍🤍🙂
Yup! I leave mine in on my scalp usually and do scalp massages with it. But I’ve also used it as a pre-poo (video coming soon) and that was a game changer
I hadn’t heard about this until recently. Glad I did as been doing some research and decided to start using (solid form) as my hair has been breaking and shedding. I’ve decided to add to black castor oil & Amla oil - mix for a double boiler method - to add to diy rosemary hair spritz. Thank you for your video and recommendation.
You are definitely speaking my language when you mention Jamaican black castor oil, alma, and DIY rosemary sprays. I do all of that!! Literally lol. I’m sorry to hear your hair is going through a rough patch. Hopefully the ingredients you mentioned work for you with consistent use 🤍. Thanks for watching
Thank you very much for explaining how to use Batana (solidified) oil. I just received my jar from Dr. Lyfe. I was afraid to use it every other day because it said to leave on for 30 to 60 minutes, then wash your hair or leave it in overnight for best results.
You posted an amazon link which is green in color and clearly from China. There are many more reputable sellers like Batana Babe. Why are you promoting an amazon made in china product over a small business?
I’m discussing the product that I tried. That’s all I can do. The color of the product is not green. Whatever it is or is not, my hair likes it. I like this product. Hopefully you found something helpful in the video. Thanks for watching.
@@jessicahensonspeaks Yes. He/ that person is correct. I’m posting Not to attack you but out of frustration that We keep getting duped & tricked by these fake made in china scams. The product you’re using is online with the same labels on many sites with different names and it’s not the correct color or consistency. I’m glad that whatever it is is working for you just please be careful sis and proceed with caution. I have two of the jars in my hand and kissed that I wasted money. I DO appreciate the time that you took to review something to benefit us all though. Good luck with your channel. Sincerely and all do respect.
@@jessicahensonspeaks I’ve also ordered my batana oil from your link, the bottle says it’s origin is Honduras but I’m confused because the colour is actually Green
This video helped a lot. I saw the “leave on for 30min then rinse” and I freaked out. I didn’t realize it’s an option before shampooing lol I just got mine today, I can’t wait to see if it helps my hair. Thank u❤
hey dear, the Batana oil im using does not have to be washed out. i leave it in my hair for about 5 days before washing again. My hair smells just fine. My hair is short, only about 1 inch long if it matters. people rub it on their hair and even skin as necessary as its needed.
Yup, it’s Dr. Sebi, he was a well known herbalist who focused on holistic health. He helped heal many ppl of diseases and ailments in the body. I guess he just happened to be bald lol. It’s ironic. But since he’s from Honduras where Batana oil originated I thought it would be interesting to add in that little clip 😂. Hey but it’s been working for me and working for others (check other comments). Thanks for watching 🙂
Dr.Sebi was bald, but he was a well known herbalist from Honduras , so I thought it would be fitting to add that clip. I do see your point tho lol. But I like Batana oil. If you look thru the comments other people have seen results with it too. Thanks so much for watching 🙂
Hi and thanks for the video. I am one of those with a VERY sensitive scalp that doesn’t take kindly to too much water, so do you have any suggestions on what I can use daily for the liquid in my l.o.c routine?
Hey Marie! Have you tried aloe vera juice? Maybe that could help. I personally use a DIY hair spritz - it starts out with water but it ends up being a tea mix.
Botana is the same as palm kernel oil,used it in 2023 a lot for my hair as a cheap alternative and I can say in thickening it helped!!! Big time the raw dark palm oil itself I only stopped cuz of the dark oil can stain my silk pillowcase but seeing this I’m gonna improvise and make a palm kernel oil herbal haircream at home The benefits are awesome for prayers,newborns,stomach and growth/darkening of hair and skin(moisturizing and removes scars etc) I love it . I’ll put in back in my routine considering how my hair is almost mid back.
Nice! I love testimonials. So glad it’s making your hair thicker. I’m for sure going to keep using it. I haven’t experienced any staining on my pillows, but I do wear bonnets and my satin pillowcase is of a darker color. Best wishes on your hair growth journey 🙂
@@jessicahensonspeaksyeah perhaps you are using the white one instead of the black. In Africa here it is white and black palm kernel oil. I prefer black cuz I feel more potent which has the vitamin e etc cuz the white one is extra bleached. I might try it don’t know yet,love the black type
@@jessicahensonspeaks probably been bleached a bit,original be black.as burnt as it is.some be brown too when pouring etc like it’s some undertone but from the smell you’ll know if it’s original or mixed/not made well.
@@jessicahensonspeaksI also bought the oil directly from Honduras. I bought it about 3 years ago. I haven’t been using regularly but recently revisited it and I really don’t know why I stopped using it! Thanks for sharing.
New Subbie here!! Great video!! I love Batana oil! I use the jar kind too. This coming Saturday I’ll be at 20 weeks post relaxer! I only have a relaxer for increased manageability not to have straight hair so I only put heat on it when I do my relaxer. I’m just below bra strap but above waist length. Trying to get to waist then tailbone then bumpkin length! I was getting relaxers every 17 weeks which is 3 times per year. But with Batana oil I think I’ll make it to 26 weeks which is twice per year! It softens my new growth while strengthening the hair shaft strands and moisturizes the scalp very nicely!! This stuff is by far the best hair oil I’ve ever used and I’m an old gal!! I’ll be 55 next month! Because of the smell I also put a little Rosemary oil on my scalp too and massage it in!! Great stuff and even better together!!
Oh and it also naturally darkens the hair!! Another added bonus for anyone who doesn’t want to dye their hair or cover gray. I like my gray but I’m OK with this darkening it because it’s a natural oil and not a chemical! By the way, I use it about every 3-4 days or twice per week on hair and scalp as a leave in!! But I don’t shampoo often and Batana oil not only moisturizes but aids in scalp cleansing…..thus the pre poo. I may get the liquid oil to use as a pre poo but I like my solid in the jar for my leave in!!❤
@@dr.sherryleonard-foots4200 Oh I love this!! Yes I’m trying to get waist length hair too. Batana oil does make the hair soft. I just washed my hair yesterday after undoing my twists and I decided to use Batana oil as a pre-poo just coating my hair with it and when I rinsed out my hair, my hair looked soooo defined, I had very little shedding, and my hair felt strong. (Stay tuned for that upload 🙂) I definitely recommend putting the Batana butter across both of your textures and putting on a plastic cap. Although the fractionated form would be good for this too. I’ve been incorporating other new things into my hair care routine bc I’m currently on a 3 month hair growth challenge, but my hair looked amazing yesterday when I washed it!! I’ll keep using Batana butter on my scalp, but the pre poo won me over completely lol. Also thanks for subscribing 🤍🤍🤍, welcome to the community 🙂
That’s actually tomorrow’s upload 🙂. So I used the Batana oil as a pre-poo, shampooed , and then still followed up with a deep conditioner and honestly my hair looked so good! I was actually surprised at the hydration and definition my hair had compared to when I just shampooed and deep conditioned without a pre-poo and I’ll show that in the video. Honestly I would still use a deep conditioner bc that’s my standard, I don’t want to skip step and then find out my hair needs more moisture. But I don’t think my hair was stripped even after using it.
I personally have not had a bald spot, but this has helped to thicken my thin edges. Some other ppl in the comments have testified to this helping with their alopecia and decreasing shedding. Pls do read through those comments 🙂
my hair is normally quite think but its thinning at the center. Maybe age, stress, idk. Im 43. so im using batana, only one month now. however im not too sure this is a pure product. It look much less gritty than Dr. Sebi's, which I prefer.
The good batana is very very gritty and solid unlike in the video here. It smells like fresh rich coffee, not burnt, and nutty chocolate. I'd say the not so pure stuff smells more stale, but still nutty and coffee-like.
New subscriber here 🙋🏾 Love your personality/vibe…. I think you got some counterfeit batana oil. It’s not supposed to have a greenish hue. More like a dark brown/orange color & it smells really smoky. Sort of like a BBQ pit. I also bought mine from Amazon by BatanaCo
Hey there 🙂. Thanks for watching! I actually like the product that I’m using and that why I shared it. I can only make reviews on things I’ve tried. I have another video showing me use this product on my hair. My hair absolutely loved it. I would say it’s brown, but definitely no hints of orange. I bought one other one that spelled chemically/burnt off Amazon and I immediately returned it. Hopefully this video just helps other ppl make informed decisions about what they choose to do with their hair.
Hey jessica nice video! So i have dreads and im starting to have alopecia on the top of my head. I wanted to know for people with dreads, should i use the first example that uve shown in the video + doing the pre-poo treatment before going to the shower or i can only use one of these techniques and ill be fine? Please let me know!!!!
Hey! Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate it. I definitely would say to try out Batana oil as a pre-poo and scalp oil that you leave in as well. If you are experiencing alopecia, try spraying some rosemary water on the spot (I have a video on this too) then applying the oil. Also try gentle scalp massages, low tension styles with your locs, and look up DHT blockers. Hope this helps. Happy Sunday!!
I use wild growth oil as well actually lol. I wouldn’t say one is necessarily better than another one. But I do use wild growth oil more often on my scalp. Batana oil is great for hot oil treatments and pre-poos
@@martasalvi8152No, Batana oil is and should only be batana oil. Wild growth has a variety of oils in it. When you purchase batana oil make sure that the only ingredient is 100% raw batana oil, if it has more products in it, it's not authentic and I don't recommend getting it. I hope this helps. Have an amazing day ❤
Hi Sarah! I'm am well thanks for asking. I hope you are doing good as well. The batana oil I use is from amazon: amzn.to/3yLkRBn. You have a blessed Sunday as well!!
I bought one from Botanix and it says to put it in your hair then rinse it out. Is that the pre-poo you’re talking about? I wanted to use it like a regular oil in my hair. Thank you! Your video was extremely helpful.
Hi this is the Batana oil I love and it works for me 🙂. If you find a brand that works for you, definitely let me know. I’ve purchased another brand that I don’t like and I’ve run across a company that was a scam as well. Let me know which brand you end up purchasing. Thanks for watching 🤍
My roots and scalp felt soothed and smooth with one use. I prob started noticing for real hair growth after two weeks, but I combined this product with scalp massages
I love love this oil ! This is the only oil that give me some great slip, moisturize and it don't make my scalp itch. I keep this on stock girl I don't play with my oil. If I want a thicker consistency I will mix it with Shea butter or grease ( blue magic the castor oil one). I got mine from Esty.
Yes! Honestly I use this oil as a pre-poo too before wash day and honestly the first time I used it in that way I was SHOOK. My hair absolutely love Batana oil 🤍. Thanks so much for watching 🙂
Thank you for this video I just got my batana hair oil today I use it without reading it said leave on 30 min. Then rinse but I hear it can be use as a regular hair leave in oil?
My hair is a bit shorter than yours and I just received my Batana oil. The goal is waist length hair by this time next year. My growth has kinda hit a plateau and I’m retaining my length, but no more growth. Hopefully this is the boost I need. I’ve been natural since 2017 and this is the healthiest my hair has ever been🥰 do you ever use heat or wear your hair straight?
I feel like my hair hit a plateau earlier this year. But I do feel like sometimes it’s hard to tell with my shrinkage. I hope you find a breakthrough soon. I have only worn a wig once. I rarely use heat on my hair. I may change that in the future. As of right now I have only straightened. My natural hair once. I’ve been natural since 2016. Cut my hair a couple of time
Hi Alicia! Thanks so much for watching. You can purchase batana oil off amazon. Here are the links ♡ Batana Oil (Butter): amzn.to/4dFiShJ Batana Oil (Liquid): amzn.to/3QISiKZ
Thank you for sharing this. I've been seeing batana oil a lot lately and decided to purchase after watching your video. I decided to purchase the same kind you are using through the link last week. There are so many scams out there. This company however followed up with an email that had usage instructions and the jar I received also had instructions on it. Hoping this will help thicken my hair and decrease the shedding. The smell is not bad at all! 😊
Awesome! Please let me know how the product works out for you! I applied it to my edges awhile back and definitely think it was helpful. Hope you have a great day!
@@jessicahensonspeaks I used as a pre-poo last Thursday evening and left it in my hair overnight before rinsing and washing the the next afternoon. The smell didn't bother me, but it was a bit much since I slept in a plastic cap. But when I say my hair was soooo soft after rinsing out. I almost didn't want to wash it because I use t-gel shampoo. No worries! My scalp felt great. I only had to wash my hair twice (I have bad psoriasis flare ups and my scalp was a mess last week) where I usually have to wash 3x and even then not all the flakes are out. I conditioned and let air dry for 24hrs then blew the rest dry on Saturday. I cannot believe it, but with one use I've had WAY LESS shedding since last week. I'm going to use as a pre-poo again tomorrow but maybe just let it sit on for a couple of hours and not overnight. *Full disclosure: I do get a relaxer about 4x/yr and 8/1/24 was the last time I got one.
Do you need to wash it out your hair ? I can’t remember the name of the one I brought but I got it off Amazon and it says it’s a hot oil treatment but I thought you could just use it as hair oil without washing it
Hi Jordan, you can use it as a hot oil treatment on your hair and scalp. That I’d recommend leaving in for 30 minutes to overnight. If you are just using it as a scalp oil, you can leave it in until wash day. There’s no time frame that the oil has to come out. I’ve used this oil as a scalp oil for multiple protective styles and left it in until wash day. Hope this helps 🙂
Hey hun ! And oh okay thank you! I just washed my hair so I’ll leave it for next time thanks for your help I weren’t sure I just thought it was a hair grease !
So you can use it in a variety of ways. You can use it as you would a scalp oil (leaving it in), you can use it as a pre-poo (leaving in for a few hours to overnight), or you can use the solidified form as a hair butter. It’s a natural product and you can decide how long to leave it in. It won’t cause damage. When you do wash your hair, make sure to shampoo. Hope that helps! 🙂🤍
The bald guy is Dr. Sebi, he was a pretty well known herbalist from Honduras. You could look up more of his work. Batana oil originated in Honduras and I thought why not add the clip. But he is bald lol 😂. But if you look at anecdotal testimonies. Ppl are saying that it works for them 🙂
@@marks9676I’m not sure if he used it or not. But you can use Batana on the skin too. It’s not solely for the scalp. Hair can also be a personally preference. Either way, I hope this video was informative somehow. Thanks for watching!
Ahhhh so stoked!! Welcome to the community 🤍🦋. So my hair been in protective styles mainly for the last few months, but in the Batana Pre-Poo video, my hair is out. You can see my hair length there. I was swapping out protective styles at the time and this was apart of my washday routine. Here’s that video : th-cam.com/video/Itb5GhX8AIk/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching! Glad the video was informative. The smell is a little strong. I don’t mind it 🙂. I feel the smell lasts for about half of a day. Maybe add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to help combat the smell
Batana oil originates from the American palm tree. Palm oil is also comes from the same tree species. From what I saw online, I believe it is the same thing 🙂 I know another name for it is ojon oil as well
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this. Pls do check with her physician. Alopecia areata can be caused by many things, but the result is usually inflammation in the hair follicles. I'd recommend incorporating food and supplements that reduce inflammation. Olive oil is anti-inflammatory so if she is not allergic, perhaps gently massaging her scalp a few times a week may help. I do have a video on my channel that goes over foods that help aid in hair growth and alleviate dandruff. If interested you could check that video out here: th-cam.com/video/XURyrHzluhQ/w-d-xo.html. I hope your daughters hair and scalp recovers soon ♡
@@jessicahensonspeaksThanks for the prompt response. I believe it might be an autoimmune issue because my husband's side of the family has a lot of autoimmune disorders. Whenever her hair is about to fall out, you can see a white bulb, and it looks pink and irritated. The good thing is she’s not allergic to nuts. I used to use olive oil, and now I've started using what the dermatologist which is Minoxidil. But to be honest, I can’t trust these doctors anymore due to the bad side effects and hormonal issues. She just turned 5 a month ago.
@@Beekrm I do generally prefer natural products when possible. Perhaps you can try rosemary water on her scalp or rosemary oil. Back when I started researching rosemary for myself, I did come across a study comparing rosemary and minoxidil indicating the results were similar. Here's the link to the abstract and it was for a different form of alopecia. Not sure if this may be helpful: my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24515-male-pattern-baldness-androgenic-alopecia?_gl=1*12y1yd2*_ga*ODE4NTM3MDY2LjE3MTYzNDQ1OTc.*_ga_HWJ092SPKP*MTcxNjM0NDU5Ni4xLjAuMTcxNjM0NDU5Ni4wLjAuMA..
I am so grateful to God for creating this plant. My hair has not grown in over 10 years. I was dealing with alopecia. I’m on a lot of meds for fibromyalgia so I gave this a try and I am overjoyed by God’s blessings. My hair is growing so beautiful I never thought I would see my hair like this ever again, but God is good, something he created thank you God for being so good to us and supplying us with what we need
You think this would be good to put on your scalp before working out? Just wondering if it would absorb deeper into the skin if I put a little in before going to my hot yoga class? Also wondering if it has a strong smell, if it would disturb my classmates?
Hey Fiona, thanks for watching 🤍. I think applying this before working out is great and makes sense. When we work out, we improve our blood flow. Our scalp is porous and absorbs what we put on it so if you mix that improved blood flow it should have positive impacts on our scalp. So I definitely like how you’re thinking and it’s a good idea. The smell isn’t too strong and I put it all over my scalp.
@@jessicahensonspeaks thanks so much for the reply! Really appreciate it! I moved to a city that has really hard water, and to say it’s been rough on my hair is an understatement. I put a mix of rosemary and neem oil weekly, I just can’t go to class with it in because it smells pretty strong. I try to be mindful of other people in the class lol
@@fionafox420 I get not wanting a smell to be too potent. I have been using natural products for years and unless something outright stinks, I believe my nose is not really sensitive, but I get everyone is different. Have you tried using a filter on your shower or sink where you wash your hair? A filter may help. Here's an example of a more affordable one: amzn.to/3znMFvZ . But maybe you can find one that works well for you.
I’ve used it daily and didn’t have any problem with build up. My scalp is probably a bit more dry than most people. But my scalp absorbs it and it doesn’t cause build up . Good question 🙂
Hi! Thanks so much for watching 🙂. The directions on the container suggest to use it as a pre-poo (leave in and then wash out) you can use it this way or leave it in. I’ve been using Batana oil for 3 months now and you don’t have to rinse it out. But it is a great pre-shampoo and I do have a video on my channel about this as well
@@jessicahensonspeaksthank you so much. I will be ordering both products. I have locs and would like to try both products. I think my edges tend to thin out at times; hoping these may be of help. Thank you for your video and information ❤
That’s Dr.Sebi, he’s from Honduras where Batana oil was widely used. He also is a well known her herbalist so I thought this clip would be interesting to include
Its always some oil that you xant find in the us to grow your hair so they say when will the us make something great to grow our hair that wr can find in the United States yall
The US is one of the youngest countries in world and haircare is not new. Other cultures have been growing, styling, and maintaining hair for years. I think there’s always something great we can learn. Batana oil can be found in the US. If you’re looking for something to buy out of the grocery store, you can use olive oil, castor oil, aloe Vera, you can put tea in your hair. Theres really an infinite list. Some ppl use mayo as a protein treatment. You can use onions…on and on. There’s plenty of store bought products that derive ingredients from nature or mimic what’s in nature. There’s no one stop shop for hair growth and haircare. Just passing along some information about what I’ve learned. Thanks so much for watching 🤍
Hey Susan 🙂, yes I added some marley hair to my twists for fullness! They almost look natural right!! If you're interested in the actual length of my hair you can definitely check out other videos on my channel where my hair is out. In tomorrow's upload I'll also be sharing part of my wash day routine (it will be a crotchet video)
Batana is a Brown Color - Real Batana Oil is brown/orange/tan in color. It is not green. The texture and color of the oil are the biggest tell tale signs of real vs. fake. Do your research
I personally love the one in my description box, but it’s currently sold out :/ I recommended another brand to you all as well in a couple other of the comments. I posted the link in those comments. Let me know which one you end up trying 🙂. Thanks for watching 🤍
It can help with those who have alopecia. If completely bald and the hair follicles are no longer active, I’m not sure if this alone will activate the follicles, but you could always give it a try. Please check out the article links in the description box so you can learn more about Batana to see if it’s solution you’d like to try. Thanks for watching 🙂
Thank you for the video. I followed your link and have purchased the Batana product. I've also subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to growing long, natural hair as well. :)
Yes! I really do think you’ll like the Batana. And thanks so much to subscribing to my channel. More content coming soon! Do lmk if there’s any other products or topics you’d like me to discuss. 🙂 Welcome to the community 🤍
The ingredients on the package has stuff listed that’s not natural. Chemicals are listed. Is this the correct product. It’s a creamy consistency but not solid.
I use the Batana butter pinned in the comments. That’s the one that works for me. It’s a solid cream-like consistency and says all natural. It works for me and has worked for others in the comments. I didn’t see chemicals listed on the label.
I have done both!! So far I’ve used it as a daily scalp oil (always apply water or hair hair tea 1st for hydration) and left it in until taking down my protective style or until wash day. I also have used it as a pre-poo (apply it on my hair and strands for 1 hour to overnight) and REALLY liked it 🙂. I will be making a video about the Batana pre-pop soon. Thanks for watching 🤍
I got mine off of amazon. That link is in the description box, but I see that it is now sold out! If you are looking for the solid form, you could try this brand: amzn.to/44ZDxcv
@@jessicahensonspeaks you're welcome. can you make a video on how to stop split ends because that's a major issue for me. i get regular trims but i need to know why they keep coming back lol
Thanks for watching …The batana I use is less than $20. But if that’s too pricey for you and you want to grow your hair, you can always get rosemary from the store for about $2, soak that in boiling water, and make rosemary water. Spray that on your scalp. That’s good for hair growth .
The batana butter (solidified form) is back in stock!!!!: If you wanted to purchase the one I'm using be sure to check out this link: amzn.to/3wMsEON
Also, my results of the batana butter pre-poo are posted!! Definitely check out that upload ♡: th-cam.com/video/Itb5GhX8AIk/w-d-xo.html
Please tell me is it sold in stores? If so which stores? Because I don't really like to shop online
Do you wash this out? Can I leave it in?
@@TalkWithNeno1I leave it in as a scalp oil or wash it out when I use it as a pre-poo. You can do either or
@@talltallladyI’m not sure what stores may sell it. Perhaps you can try an international food store
@@jessicahensonspeaks thank you
We have been using this in South eastern Nigeria for ages. It's not just Honduras. We call it Ude Aki or Ude Aku, depending on your igbo dialect.
I didn’t know this! Thanks so much for sharing 🤍
@@jessicahensonspeaks interestingly, we apply mostly on the skin, and not hair. I am getting bald, and I will definitely start applying to my scalp. Thanks for sharing as well.
Was thinking the same. We have it in West Africa but use it to cook or the skin only. Will try it for hair too.
I never knew batana is due aku, thanks for sharing
They are from two different varieties of palm oil trees so it's not the exact same thing.
I bought the Batana brand Stylista from fb and it has zero batana in it and it’s from China and is very sketchy. Please be careful who you buy from.
Yes I’ve heard about fake brands. I’m sorry you received one, I like buying products off Amazon for easy return if needed and in person. The Batana I purchased works well for me.
You gotta make sure it says Honduras.
Youre telling the truth. I just received mine from the same company and it had no batan at all. I will not order from them again.
Thank you for sharing. SERIOUSLY
I recently bought mine from Amazon UK. After opening, it said made in China, not impressed.
This oil has been produced and used in Ghana for ages. We call it 'Adwongo'. Our people mainly use it for cooking and sometimes on the skin. It's one of the cheapest oils to buy in Ghana.
Adwongo nice. I never knew that. That’s amazing. I bet it really is rich/moisturizing on the skin 🤍
No wonder you have such lovely long hair
does the texture of it look like in this video?? The Batana oil I get from Dr. Sebi's son Victor Bowman has a much grittier texture than in this video. I was listening to the video thinking this was the same but it looks just like another brand I got off amazon that Im currently not approving of.
In Congo as well !!! We call it Mafuta Mbila
This sista did a very good job of informing and educating those who seek natural hair improvement. Will be sharing this video and checking out your others. Is there a black man on TH-cam similar to you far as natural hair care?
Hi thank you so much for the compliment! I appreciate you watching the video 🙂. I’m not sure of black male TH-cam that make natural hair content, but if I come across any, I’ll be sure to follow back up with you.
@@jessicahensonspeaks thanks so much and I really appreciate you getting back to me.Keep up the great vids you are doing really great! i will keep up with your work dear
I've been using Banana oil for over a decade. First used the Ojon company( was sold on QVC) and practically everyone can use it ( if u have a nut allergy check with doctor). I use it from scalp to baby toe.
Nice! So far I’ve only used it on my hair and scalp. QVC was ahead of it’s time. I only heard about Batana oil recently. Thanks for watching 🤍
What brand do you use now?
Knew I had smelled this smell before. Yes Ojon was a product I used before too.
So you put it in and then wash it out right? You don’t leave it on your hair and scalp?
@@markharden1057 You can put in on your hair and scalp and rise it out as a prewash treatment. Or you can leave it on your scalp as oil and wash your hair whenever you normally do. Both work great!
Ok...FULL DISCLOSURE...I just bought a jar of Batana Oil and have started using it...I'm eager to see the results.....BUT..I just find it funny at time interval 0:42 a bald guy says "this WILL make your hair grow!" Apparently he ran out 😜Sorry...probably gonna get deleted for this but I couldn't resist! 🤪🤪
LOLLL, no this comment won’t get deleted 😂. See I thought about that when I was editing the video honestly, but Dr. Sebi was held in very high regard by a lot of ppl looking to find alternatives to big pharma and approach life/health more holistically. So I thought I’d include that in this video to show his stamp of approval. But hey, it’s working out pretty well for me so far. If you sift through the comments, some ladies have said it’s worked out well for them (and they’ve been using it wayyy longer than I have). Lol I get where you are coming from tho. Hope you see some results 🙂
I have been using Batana oil for nearly a decade. It’s a wonderful oil and stops shedding and breakage the minute it is used. And it immediately softens the hair! 💖💖
For a liquid oil, I prefer Ojon oil which acts similar to Batana but is liquid.
This is a good video! I’m glad to see more people using Batana oil.
Aww that is awesome 🙂!! Yes I only recently heard about Batana oil. It definitely makes my hair soft and is something I’m trying to consistently weave into my natural hair routine. Thank you so much for watching!!! 🤍🤍🙂
Where do you purchase the Ojon oil?
@@lifewithneweyes4623 3cayg and rainforest chica both sell it
@@lifewithneweyes46233cayg and rainforest chica both sell ojon oil. 3cayg is a bit cheaper but amazing quality so I would try there
Thanks for the excellent tips. Which brand of batana oil do you use?
You dont have to wash it out if you have afro hair
Mine smelld like coffee
Yup! I leave mine in on my scalp usually and do scalp massages with it. But I’ve also used it as a pre-poo (video coming soon) and that was a game changer
I keep mine in my hair for up to 5 days. I been washing my hair less since I've been more mindful. No need to wash it out when its pure oil
I hadn’t heard about this until recently. Glad I did as been doing some research and decided to start using (solid form) as my hair has been breaking and shedding. I’ve decided to add to black castor oil & Amla oil - mix for a double boiler method - to add to diy rosemary hair spritz. Thank you for your video and recommendation.
You are definitely speaking my language when you mention Jamaican black castor oil, alma, and DIY rosemary sprays. I do all of that!! Literally lol. I’m sorry to hear your hair is going through a rough patch. Hopefully the ingredients you mentioned work for you with consistent use 🤍. Thanks for watching
Thank you very much for explaining how to use Batana (solidified) oil. I just received my jar from Dr. Lyfe. I was afraid to use it every other day because it said to leave on for 30 to 60 minutes, then wash your hair or leave it in overnight for best results.
Same!
Of course! Glad it was helpful! Yes I use it as a hair oil too
You posted an amazon link which is green in color and clearly from China. There are many more reputable sellers like Batana Babe. Why are you promoting an amazon made in china product over a small business?
I’m discussing the product that I tried. That’s all I can do. The color of the product is not green. Whatever it is or is not, my hair likes it. I like this product. Hopefully you found something helpful in the video. Thanks for watching.
@@jessicahensonspeaks Yes. He/ that person is correct. I’m posting Not to attack you but out of frustration that We keep getting duped & tricked by these fake made in china scams. The product you’re using is online with the same labels on many sites with different names and it’s not the correct color or consistency. I’m glad that whatever it is is working for you just please be careful sis and proceed with caution. I have two of the jars in my hand and kissed that I wasted money. I DO appreciate the time that you took to review something to benefit us all though. Good luck with your channel. Sincerely and all do respect.
Yes I just discovered Batana Babe
@@jessicahensonspeaks I’ve also ordered my batana oil from your link, the bottle says it’s origin is Honduras but I’m confused because the colour is actually Green
This video helped a lot. I saw the “leave on for 30min then rinse” and I freaked out. I didn’t realize it’s an option before shampooing lol I just got mine today, I can’t wait to see if it helps my hair. Thank u❤
Aww perfect! I’m glad it was helpful. Thanks so much for watching!! 🤍
Does it work?
hey dear, the Batana oil im using does not have to be washed out. i leave it in my hair for about 5 days before washing again. My hair smells just fine. My hair is short, only about 1 inch long if it matters. people rub it on their hair and even skin as necessary as its needed.
Beautiful hair, darling!
Thank you kindly for sharing this God-Bless you 🪷
Thank you so much ♡
Tfs❤ I can’t not wait to give this a try!
Yessss!! 🙂Wishing you the best in your hair growth journey 🤍
A bald man talking about hair growth oil? 😂😂😂
Yup, it’s Dr. Sebi, he was a well known herbalist who focused on holistic health. He helped heal many ppl of diseases and ailments in the body. I guess he just happened to be bald lol. It’s ironic. But since he’s from Honduras where Batana oil originated I thought it would be interesting to add in that little clip 😂. Hey but it’s been working for me and working for others (check other comments). Thanks for watching 🙂
I thought that was funny too 🤔🤣
@@thelifeofunique6569 😂
My husband is 34yrs and going bald
I hope this will work for him
He wants his hair to grow back
Crown bald and it's bad
Doctor Sebi was bald though…
Dr.Sebi was bald, but he was a well known herbalist from Honduras , so I thought it would be fitting to add that clip. I do see your point tho lol. But I like Batana oil. If you look thru the comments other people have seen results with it too. Thanks so much for watching 🙂
@@meletis1980 his clients weren't
G'day Jess..
This info and your presentation is fantastic, Thank you.
Extra thanks for no back ground music too, Cheers..
Aww glad you liked it 🙂. Thanks for watching !
Hi and thanks for the video. I am one of those with a VERY sensitive scalp that doesn’t take kindly to too much water, so do you have any suggestions on what I can use daily for the liquid in my l.o.c routine?
Hey Marie! Have you tried aloe vera juice? Maybe that could help. I personally use a DIY hair spritz - it starts out with water but it ends up being a tea mix.
Botana is the same as palm kernel oil,used it in 2023 a lot for my hair as a cheap alternative and I can say in thickening it helped!!! Big time the raw dark palm oil itself I only stopped cuz of the dark oil can stain my silk pillowcase but seeing this I’m gonna improvise and make a palm kernel oil herbal haircream at home
The benefits are awesome for prayers,newborns,stomach and growth/darkening of hair and skin(moisturizing and removes scars etc) I love it . I’ll put in back in my routine considering how my hair is almost mid back.
Nice! I love testimonials. So glad it’s making your hair thicker. I’m for sure going to keep using it. I haven’t experienced any staining on my pillows, but I do wear bonnets and my satin pillowcase is of a darker color. Best wishes on your hair growth journey 🙂
@@jessicahensonspeaksyeah perhaps you are using the white one instead of the black. In Africa here it is white and black palm kernel oil. I prefer black cuz I feel more potent which has the vitamin e etc cuz the white one is extra bleached. I might try it don’t know yet,love the black type
Hmm the one I’m using is a deep brown as shown in the video and is sourced from Honduras, but there are many types and names of palm oil
@@jessicahensonspeaks probably been bleached a bit,original be black.as burnt as it is.some be brown too when pouring etc like it’s some undertone but from the smell you’ll know if it’s original or mixed/not made well.
@@jessicahensonspeaksI also bought the oil directly from Honduras. I bought it about 3 years ago. I haven’t been using regularly but recently revisited it and I really don’t know why I stopped using it! Thanks for sharing.
Haha why not Dr Sebi using the same oil to grow his own hair..?? He is bold too. 😂
If you’re watching and haven’t subbed yet, don’t hesitate any longer 💜🌸
Yes!!! 🫰🏾🫰🏾🫰🏾Yall definitely subscribe 🙂 More content to come 🤍🤍. Thanks Elle !
New Subbie here!! Great video!! I love Batana oil! I use the jar kind too. This coming Saturday I’ll be at 20 weeks post relaxer! I only have a relaxer for increased manageability not to have straight hair so I only put heat on it when I do my relaxer. I’m just below bra strap but above waist length. Trying to get to waist then tailbone then bumpkin length! I was getting relaxers every 17 weeks which is 3 times per year. But with Batana oil I think I’ll make it to 26 weeks which is twice per year! It softens my new growth while strengthening the hair shaft strands and moisturizes the scalp very nicely!! This stuff is by far the best hair oil I’ve ever used and I’m an old gal!! I’ll be 55 next month! Because of the smell I also put a little Rosemary oil on my scalp too and massage it in!! Great stuff and even better together!!
Oh and it also naturally darkens the hair!! Another added bonus for anyone who doesn’t want to dye their hair or cover gray. I like my gray but I’m OK with this darkening it because it’s a natural oil and not a chemical! By the way, I use it about every 3-4 days or twice per week on hair and scalp as a leave in!! But I don’t shampoo often and Batana oil not only moisturizes but aids in scalp cleansing…..thus the pre poo. I may get the liquid oil to use as a pre poo but I like my solid in the jar for my leave in!!❤
@@dr.sherryleonard-foots4200 Oh I love this!! Yes I’m trying to get waist length hair too. Batana oil does make the hair soft. I just washed my hair yesterday after undoing my twists and I decided to use Batana oil as a pre-poo just coating my hair with it and when I rinsed out my hair, my hair looked soooo defined, I had very little shedding, and my hair felt strong. (Stay tuned for that upload 🙂) I definitely recommend putting the Batana butter across both of your textures and putting on a plastic cap. Although the fractionated form would be good for this too. I’ve been incorporating other new things into my hair care routine bc I’m currently on a 3 month hair growth challenge, but my hair looked amazing yesterday when I washed it!! I’ll keep using Batana butter on my scalp, but the pre poo won me over completely lol. Also thanks for subscribing 🤍🤍🤍, welcome to the community 🙂
Thank you for letting us know that this oil is back on the market.
Of course! And thank you for watching 😊 🤍
Using it as a prepoo, would you recommend also conditioning after washing it out or would the Batana oil replace the conditioner entirely?
That’s actually tomorrow’s upload 🙂. So I used the Batana oil as a pre-poo, shampooed , and then still followed up with a deep conditioner and honestly my hair looked so good! I was actually surprised at the hydration and definition my hair had compared to when I just shampooed and deep conditioned without a pre-poo and I’ll show that in the video. Honestly I would still use a deep conditioner bc that’s my standard, I don’t want to skip step and then find out my hair needs more moisture. But I don’t think my hair was stripped even after using it.
Can I leave it in without washing it out?
Thank you great video ❤️🕊️☀️
Thanks so much for watching 🙂
I learned something new! Great video!
Aww great. Thanks for watching 🙂
Can it help grow back a bald spot from braids
I personally have not had a bald spot, but this has helped to thicken my thin edges. Some other ppl in the comments have testified to this helping with their alopecia and decreasing shedding. Pls do read through those comments 🙂
my hair is normally quite think but its thinning at the center. Maybe age, stress, idk. Im 43. so im using batana, only one month now. however im not too sure this is a pure product. It look much less gritty than Dr. Sebi's, which I prefer.
Does yours spell like burnt coffee?! Once i started seeing results the smell didn’t bother me anymore 😂
Ooo so glad you are seeing results!!! To me it's smells a little nutty. A little roasted. 🙂
The good batana is very very gritty and solid unlike in the video here. It smells like fresh rich coffee, not burnt, and nutty chocolate. I'd say the not so pure stuff smells more stale, but still nutty and coffee-like.
@@lionintu i got mine from a website called batana babe, it’s all pure an it’s darker then what’s shown in this video
New subscriber here 🙋🏾 Love your personality/vibe…. I think you got some counterfeit batana oil. It’s not supposed to have a greenish hue. More like a dark brown/orange color & it smells really smoky. Sort of like a BBQ pit. I also bought mine from Amazon by BatanaCo
Hey there 🙂. Thanks for watching! I actually like the product that I’m using and that why I shared it. I can only make reviews on things I’ve tried. I have another video showing me use this product on my hair. My hair absolutely loved it. I would say it’s brown, but definitely no hints of orange. I bought one other one that spelled chemically/burnt off Amazon and I immediately returned it. Hopefully this video just helps other ppl make informed decisions about what they choose to do with their hair.
So i dont leave batana on Hair all day?
I use it as a scalp oil. There is no limited or max time you can leave it on, I always make sure to shampoo my hair on wash days
Hey jessica nice video! So i have dreads and im starting to have alopecia on the top of my head. I wanted to know for people with dreads, should i use the first example that uve shown in the video + doing the pre-poo treatment before going to the shower or i can only use one of these techniques and ill be fine? Please let me know!!!!
Hey! Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate it. I definitely would say to try out Batana oil as a pre-poo and scalp oil that you leave in as well. If you are experiencing alopecia, try spraying some rosemary water on the spot (I have a video on this too) then applying the oil. Also try gentle scalp massages, low tension styles with your locs, and look up DHT blockers. Hope this helps. Happy Sunday!!
Hi there I use wild growth oil .. is the botana oil better ? Pls help 🙏☺️
I use wild growth oil as well actually lol. I wouldn’t say one is necessarily better than another one. But I do use wild growth oil more often on my scalp. Batana oil is great for hot oil treatments and pre-poos
@@jessicahensonspeaks thanks 😊 and are they the same or similar in ingredients?
@@martasalvi8152No, Batana oil is and should only be batana oil. Wild growth has a variety of oils in it. When you purchase batana oil make sure that the only ingredient is 100% raw batana oil, if it has more products in it, it's not authentic and I don't recommend getting it. I hope this helps. Have an amazing day ❤
Good afternoon how you doing where purchase Batana oil. Thank you ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️everyone have a wonderful beautiful blessed Sunday
Hi Sarah! I'm am well thanks for asking. I hope you are doing good as well. The batana oil I use is from amazon: amzn.to/3yLkRBn. You have a blessed Sunday as well!!
@@jessicahensonspeaks thank you 🙏🏾have a wonderful blessed beautiful sun . I’m going to order right now 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Thanks great! I hope it works well on your hair 🤍
If i’m using as a pre-poo should i still use it 2-3 times per week? (shampooing my hair 2-3 times a week)
I think you should test it out and see how your hair reacts. I use it about once a week. Thanks for watching 🥰
I bought one from Botanix and it says to put it in your hair then rinse it out. Is that the pre-poo you’re talking about? I wanted to use it like a regular oil in my hair. Thank you! Your video was extremely helpful.
That’s the pre-poo method. But I also leave it in my hair and scalp during the week, so I use it as a hair oil too
Ordering now!
Oh good. I’ve really been enjoying it! Let me know what you think 🙂
Hey! I recently saw a video explaining real vs fake batana and i realized this one was greenish/brown while they say that real batana is dark brown
Hi this is the Batana oil I love and it works for me 🙂. If you find a brand that works for you, definitely let me know. I’ve purchased another brand that I don’t like and I’ve run across a company that was a scam as well. Let me know which brand you end up purchasing. Thanks for watching 🤍
How fast would you see results ?
My roots and scalp felt soothed and smooth with one use. I prob started noticing for real hair growth after two weeks, but I combined this product with scalp massages
I love love this oil ! This is the only oil that give me some great slip, moisturize and it don't make my scalp itch. I keep this on stock girl I don't play with my oil. If I want a thicker consistency I will mix it with Shea butter or grease ( blue magic the castor oil one). I got mine from Esty.
Yes! Honestly I use this oil as a pre-poo too before wash day and honestly the first time I used it in that way I was SHOOK. My hair absolutely love Batana oil 🤍. Thanks so much for watching 🙂
What brand do you use?
Thank you for this video I just got my batana hair oil today I use it without reading it said leave on 30 min. Then rinse but I hear it can be use as a regular hair leave in oil?
Yes you can leave it in as long as you like. I use it as a scalp oil during the week and don’t rinse it out
@@resahigh91 i dont rinse mine out. For like 5 days
@@jessicahensonspeaks i use a little daily as my moisturizer. I have hair now, don't mind my profile pic
My hair is a bit shorter than yours and I just received my Batana oil. The goal is waist length hair by this time next year. My growth has kinda hit a plateau and I’m retaining my length, but no more growth. Hopefully this is the boost I need. I’ve been natural since 2017 and this is the healthiest my hair has ever been🥰 do you ever use heat or wear your hair straight?
I feel like my hair hit a plateau earlier this year. But I do feel like sometimes it’s hard to tell with my shrinkage. I hope you find a breakthrough soon. I have only worn a wig once. I rarely use heat on my hair. I may change that in the future. As of right now I have only straightened. My natural hair once. I’ve been natural since 2016. Cut my hair a couple of time
What about you?

Yes! There’s no need to rinse it out until you decide to wash it apart of your regular routine
I’m ordering soon !
Good for you!! Hope you get some results sis! 🤍
Thank you for sharing this. I've been seeing batana oil a lot lately and decided to purchase after watching your video. I decided to purchase the same kind you are using through the link last week. There are so many scams out there. This company however followed up with an email that had usage instructions and the jar I received also had instructions on it. Hoping this will help thicken my hair and decrease the shedding. The smell is not bad at all! 😊
Awesome! Please let me know how the product works out for you! I applied it to my edges awhile back and definitely think it was helpful. Hope you have a great day!
@@jessicahensonspeaks I used as a pre-poo last Thursday evening and left it in my hair overnight before rinsing and washing the the next afternoon. The smell didn't bother me, but it was a bit much since I slept in a plastic cap. But when I say my hair was soooo soft after rinsing out. I almost didn't want to wash it because I use t-gel shampoo. No worries! My scalp felt great. I only had to wash my hair twice (I have bad psoriasis flare ups and my scalp was a mess last week) where I usually have to wash 3x and even then not all the flakes are out. I conditioned and let air dry for 24hrs then blew the rest dry on Saturday. I cannot believe it, but with one use I've had WAY LESS shedding since last week. I'm going to use as a pre-poo again tomorrow but maybe just let it sit on for a couple of hours and not overnight.
*Full disclosure: I do get a relaxer about 4x/yr and 8/1/24 was the last time I got one.
Great video Jessica. Thanks for the information!👍
Thanks for watching 🤍
Give me a real life example of this stuff working.
Check the other comments. I also have a second video on this product as well called Batana pre-poo
Do you need to wash it out your hair ? I can’t remember the name of the one I brought but I got it off Amazon and it says it’s a hot oil treatment but I thought you could just use it as hair oil without washing it
Hi Jordan, you can use it as a hot oil treatment on your hair and scalp. That I’d recommend leaving in for 30 minutes to overnight. If you are just using it as a scalp oil, you can leave it in until wash day. There’s no time frame that the oil has to come out. I’ve used this oil as a scalp oil for multiple protective styles and left it in until wash day. Hope this helps 🙂
Hey hun ! And oh okay thank you! I just washed my hair so I’ll leave it for next time thanks for your help I weren’t sure I just thought it was a hair grease !
I just received my order and there are no real instructions on how often to use or how long to leave on hair before rinsing it out. Help!!
So you can use it in a variety of ways. You can use it as you would a scalp oil (leaving it in), you can use it as a pre-poo (leaving in for a few hours to overnight), or you can use the solidified form as a hair butter. It’s a natural product and you can decide how long to leave it in. It won’t cause damage. When you do wash your hair, make sure to shampoo. Hope that helps! 🙂🤍
But the guy speaking is bald ? 🤔
The bald guy is Dr. Sebi, he was a pretty well known herbalist from Honduras. You could look up more of his work. Batana oil originated in Honduras and I thought why not add the clip. But he is bald lol 😂. But if you look at anecdotal testimonies. Ppl are saying that it works for them 🙂
@@jessicahensonspeaks I hear that it’s misleading if I’m promoting a product I don’t use . That’s my opinion
@@marks9676I’m not sure if he used it or not. But you can use Batana on the skin too. It’s not solely for the scalp. Hair can also be a personally preference. Either way, I hope this video was informative somehow. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! Glad the video was informative. The smell is a little strong. I don’t mind it 🙂. I feel the smell lasts for about half of a day. Maybe add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to help combat the smell
@jessicahensonspeaks thanks for the tips... will try and tell u how my journey goes with the Batana oil
@@NuageArtStudioYes please do keep me posted! I love hearing ppls testimonials 🤍
Is batana oil the same as palm kernel oil?
Batana oil originates from the American palm tree. Palm oil is also comes from the same tree species. From what I saw online, I believe it is the same thing 🙂 I know another name for it is ojon oil as well
Niceeee... Thank you 😊
Ofc!
Different but same family
@@jessicahensonspeaksOjon is different from batana
Can you look on the bottle and see where that is manufactured?
The solidified form of Batana says “The country of origin: Honduras” . That’s all it says, nothing about manufactured. Hope that helps
I hope this work my daughter has Alopecia areata and is losing all her hair it soo sad 😩
I think it'll work. My baby had a similar problem and it helped. Again check with doctor if your child has a nut allergy.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this. Pls do check with her physician. Alopecia areata can be caused by many things, but the result is usually inflammation in the hair follicles. I'd recommend incorporating food and supplements that reduce inflammation. Olive oil is anti-inflammatory so if she is not allergic, perhaps gently massaging her scalp a few times a week may help. I do have a video on my channel that goes over foods that help aid in hair growth and alleviate dandruff. If interested you could check that video out here: th-cam.com/video/XURyrHzluhQ/w-d-xo.html. I hope your daughters hair and scalp recovers soon ♡
@@jessicahensonspeaksThanks for the prompt response. I believe it might be an autoimmune issue because my husband's side of the family has a lot of autoimmune disorders. Whenever her hair is about to fall out, you can see a white bulb, and it looks pink and irritated. The good thing is she’s not allergic to nuts. I used to use olive oil, and now I've started using what the dermatologist which is Minoxidil. But to be honest, I can’t trust these doctors anymore due to the bad side effects and hormonal issues. She just turned 5 a month ago.
@@Beekrm I do generally prefer natural products when possible. Perhaps you can try rosemary water on her scalp or rosemary oil. Back when I started researching rosemary for myself, I did come across a study comparing rosemary and minoxidil indicating the results were similar. Here's the link to the abstract and it was for a different form of alopecia. Not sure if this may be helpful: my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24515-male-pattern-baldness-androgenic-alopecia?_gl=1*12y1yd2*_ga*ODE4NTM3MDY2LjE3MTYzNDQ1OTc.*_ga_HWJ092SPKP*MTcxNjM0NDU5Ni4xLjAuMTcxNjM0NDU5Ni4wLjAuMA..
I am so grateful to God for creating this plant. My hair has not grown in over 10 years. I was dealing with alopecia. I’m on a lot of meds for fibromyalgia so I gave this a try and I am overjoyed by God’s blessings. My hair is growing so beautiful I never thought I would see my hair like this ever again, but God is good, something he created thank you God for being so good to us and supplying us with what we need
Can I put in my scalp with my braids in?
Yes! Sure can. I use it with braids and twists in
You think this would be good to put on your scalp before working out? Just wondering if it would absorb deeper into the skin if I put a little in before going to my hot yoga class? Also wondering if it has a strong smell, if it would disturb my classmates?
Hey Fiona, thanks for watching 🤍. I think applying this before working out is great and makes sense. When we work out, we improve our blood flow. Our scalp is porous and absorbs what we put on it so if you mix that improved blood flow it should have positive impacts on our scalp. So I definitely like how you’re thinking and it’s a good idea. The smell isn’t too strong and I put it all over my scalp.
@@jessicahensonspeaks thanks so much for the reply! Really appreciate it! I moved to a city that has really hard water, and to say it’s been rough on my hair is an understatement. I put a mix of rosemary and neem oil weekly, I just can’t go to class with it in because it smells pretty strong. I try to be mindful of other people in the class lol
@@fionafox420 I get not wanting a smell to be too potent. I have been using natural products for years and unless something outright stinks, I believe my nose is not really sensitive, but I get everyone is different. Have you tried using a filter on your shower or sink where you wash your hair? A filter may help. Here's an example of a more affordable one: amzn.to/3znMFvZ . But maybe you can find one that works well for you.
Can I use for beard growth?
Yes! You certainly can. This is a topical product safe for hair and skin. Thanks for watching!
@@jessicahensonspeaks no problem, pleasure was mine
Do you have to wash it off or you can leave it like that?
You can leave it in as long as you like. I leave it in as a scalp oil until wash day.
Can I use it on my scalp daily and not washing it after or it might lead to buildup?
I’ve used it daily and didn’t have any problem with build up. My scalp is probably a bit more dry than most people. But my scalp absorbs it and it doesn’t cause build up . Good question 🙂
Can you leave it in after scalp massaging?
Yes you can leave it on as long as you like until wash day. I use Batana oil as a scalp oil too that I pair with scalp massages
Thank you pretty young lady! 🤎
Aww, thank you for watching 🙂🤍
Do you have to wash it out after applying or can I leave it in?
You don’t have to wash it out. I like to use it as a scalp oil during the week. It’s also nice as a pre-poo an hour to a day before washing your hair
so with this oil, you can put in on your scalp without washing it out? I read a few things saying to apply and wash it out?
Hi! Thanks so much for watching 🙂. The directions on the container suggest to use it as a pre-poo (leave in and then wash out) you can use it this way or leave it in. I’ve been using Batana oil for 3 months now and you don’t have to rinse it out. But it is a great pre-shampoo and I do have a video on my channel about this as well
@@jessicahensonspeaksthank you so much. I will be ordering both products. I have locs and would like to try both products. I think my edges tend to thin out at times; hoping these may be of help. Thank you for your video and information ❤
That man speaking is bald though?
That’s Dr.Sebi, he’s from Honduras where Batana oil was widely used. He also is a well known her herbalist so I thought this clip would be interesting to include
Its always some oil that you xant find in the us to grow your hair so they say when will the us make something great to grow our hair that wr can find in the United States yall
The US is one of the youngest countries in world and haircare is not new. Other cultures have been growing, styling, and maintaining hair for years. I think there’s always something great we can learn. Batana oil can be found in the US. If you’re looking for something to buy out of the grocery store, you can use olive oil, castor oil, aloe Vera, you can put tea in your hair. Theres really an infinite list. Some ppl use mayo as a protein treatment. You can use onions…on and on. There’s plenty of store bought products that derive ingredients from nature or mimic what’s in nature. There’s no one stop shop for hair growth and haircare. Just passing along some information about what I’ve learned. Thanks so much for watching 🤍
They have some diff brands on Amazon 💯
Why it smell like coffee
Is this for natural hair only? Can you apply to relaxed hair?
This is for all hair types 🤍. It’s a natural product that can be used by anyone.
Could I use it on my beard? 🤔
Yes, it's a natural product that is safe for topical use. Always do a patch test first just to ensure you aren't allergic. Thanks for watching 🙂
Please tell me is it sold in stores? If so which stores? Because I don't really like to shop online
It may be sold in stores. I’ve only bought it online. I would say try natural stores near you or an international market
What’s the type of hair you used for your twists? Or is this your real hair?
So I can leave it in for days
Yes you can. You don’t have to immediately wash it out.
Thank you Jessica
Thank you 🤍 for watching 🙂
Do you have hair added to your natural twists in this video? It’s so beautiful.
Hey Susan 🙂, yes I added some marley hair to my twists for fullness! They almost look natural right!! If you're interested in the actual length of my hair you can definitely check out other videos on my channel where my hair is out. In tomorrow's upload I'll also be sharing part of my wash day routine (it will be a crotchet video)
Do you have to rinse it out
You don't! You can leave it in until washday
Batana is a Brown Color - Real Batana Oil is brown/orange/tan in color. It is not green. The texture and color of the oil are the biggest tell tale signs of real vs. fake.
Do your research
I did my research. The product I used is not green. Thanks for watching
3:50 I know that’s right 👏 amen
Can’t not give the Lord credit for what is His 🙌🏾
Thank you for this video. I used it in my conditioner.
Awesome! Did you notice a difference in your hair afterwards? I haven’t tried that method yet?
@@jessicahensonspeaks I actually did. My hair is bleached and this method was the first time in a while that I had true moisture and shine to my hair.
Thank u so much
Love ur hair
Aww thank you! And thanks for watching 🙂
That's not the real Batana oil.
This product works well for me as a scalp oil and pre-poo treatment. Which version/brand do you use?
Which is the real one please
@@sharondaniels521 it should say (unrefined Batana oil 100%) Honduran Miracle oil on the bottle
I use the solidified batana and it definitely works. I use it every other day❤
Yes! I love that you’re getting results!! 🤍
But which one is the correct one to buy , bc they have a lot of different one on the market.???
I personally love the one in my description box, but it’s currently sold out :/
I recommended another brand to you all as well in a couple other of the comments. I posted the link in those comments. Let me know which one you end up trying 🙂. Thanks for watching 🤍
Beautiful hair!
Thank you! 🤍
Will this help for bald men
It can help with those who have alopecia. If completely bald and the hair follicles are no longer active, I’m not sure if this alone will activate the follicles, but you could always give it a try. Please check out the article links in the description box so you can learn more about Batana to see if it’s solution you’d like to try. Thanks for watching 🙂
Thank you for the video. I followed your link and have purchased the Batana product. I've also subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to growing long, natural hair as well. :)
Yes! I really do think you’ll like the Batana. And thanks so much to subscribing to my channel. More content coming soon! Do lmk if there’s any other products or topics you’d like me to discuss. 🙂 Welcome to the community 🤍
Do you have to rinse it out
Nope! You don’t have to rinse it out until washday 🙂
What do you wash your hair with
I wash my hair most often with Trader Joe's tea tree shampoo. It's cheaper in store, but this is the same product on amazon: amzn.to/46gxe4U
The ingredients on the package has stuff listed that’s not natural. Chemicals are listed. Is this the correct product. It’s a creamy consistency but not solid.
I use the Batana butter pinned in the comments. That’s the one that works for me. It’s a solid cream-like consistency and says all natural. It works for me and has worked for others in the comments. I didn’t see chemicals listed on the label.
Can guys use it?
Yup! Everyone can use it.
Does it harden in the cold like coconut ol?
It solidifies into more of a butter. It is easy to scoop out. Not hardened solid like coconut oil I’m winter
@@jessicahensonspeaks cool
Is Batavia oil the same as Ojon oil.
Some other people who have commented on this video have said it is. I am not 100% sure. But I do believe they both come from the American palm tree
Can you leave it in. They all say wash it out. Just wondering why wash it out it’s just oil.
I have done both!! So far I’ve used it as a daily scalp oil (always apply water or hair hair tea 1st for hydration) and left it in until taking down my protective style or until wash day. I also have used it as a pre-poo (apply it on my hair and strands for 1 hour to overnight) and REALLY liked it 🙂. I will be making a video about the Batana pre-pop soon. Thanks for watching 🤍
I leave it in. It's. Washout for people with stringy hair.
My question also about rinsing it out. It doesn’t say how long to leave in. Why wash out??
Where can i purchase batana oil? Please
I got mine off of amazon. That link is in the description box, but I see that it is now sold out! If you are looking for the solid form, you could try this brand: amzn.to/44ZDxcv
@@jessicahensonspeaks thank you
@@berdenciawilliams3125 Ofc!
i purchased batana oil solid a few years back but i wasn't consistent. it was expensive too lol. i'll be buying some more, thanks for the helpful info
Ofc! Happy to share what I learn 🙂. Thanks for watching 🤍
@@jessicahensonspeaks you're welcome. can you make a video on how to stop split ends because that's a major issue for me. i get regular trims but i need to know why they keep coming back lol
interesting. I too feel like I could be retaining more length. I will definitely make a video on this. Nice suggestion 😊
Yeessss 🇭🇳♥️
Thanks for watching 🤍
where can i get it
I get mine off Amazon 🙂. The link is in the description box
Every one wanna be healthy but expensive gtfoh
Thanks for watching …The batana I use is less than $20. But if that’s too pricey for you and you want to grow your hair, you can always get rosemary from the store for about $2, soak that in boiling water, and make rosemary water. Spray that on your scalp. That’s good for hair growth .
Ok I'll check it out
I love it! Hope it works out well for you 🤍
