Use only if...
You really know your hair.This item appears to works wonders on hair that is prone to breakage, excessively sheds, and is thin (particularly at the root). IMHOI had bleached (pink) ends that I have been unintentionally growing out for over a year. Even though my roots looked healthy, they were still weak (considering it was all new growth). So, I purchased this item (almost two weeks ago) and immediately put it to use to help strengthen and thicken this area. Needless to say, I noticed a HUGE difference in my root strength after ONLY two days. I am talking about a HUGE difference!My roots are now thicker and stronger, which is what this product is all about. I no longer feel like I am walking on eggshells whenever I am detangling or styling my hair.Even though, I have low porosity hair, I apply this oil to my roots on a daily basis. After a month of usage, I will decrease it to every other day or so to keep things healthy and strong.If you are not experiencing optimal results with this product then it could be because your hair does not take kindly to castor oil, which is the carrier for this product. If castor oil is NOT the issue then try using the oil as a weekly (root only) hot oil treatment. Then go about your regular hair washing routine sans reapplying this oil to your scalp.** I am not a representative, sponsor, nor an employee of Tropic Isle Living.

For those that said it was rotten
Received this today and the oil was semi solid. I read previous reviews about this issue, but the product label says it has coconut oil in it. I know that coconut oil solidifies if it's cool so I decided to place the bottle in hot water. After 5 minutes I removed it and it was perfect clear oil. Excited to use this and the smell is wonderful. Hope this helps someone.

Worked for me!
The hair near the nape of my neck was broken off from a texturizer I applied back in 2011. That area remained weak, short and broken off and I thought maybe it would always be like that. Even wearing sew in weaves would not help this area grow back. Then a hairstylist recommended jamaican black castor oil and I found this exact product at a beauty supply store. I started wearing box braids in March 2016 and applying this product all over my scalp once a week, and didn't wash it out. Maaaan this combo did the trick. The hair around my nape has grown in so well. It went from an inch long to 4 or 5 inches long over a 7 month period. My nape hair looks so much better and thicker. Very happy with the outcome, thank you.

My hair follicles seem to enjoy it ....
I am transitioning in life, and I decided to cut my hair off and do some re-decorating (😀). Upon cutting my hair, I noticed that I was balding in two key places; and I already figured out one component as to why, but I needed something to help me fix it and give me my damn edges back! That damn Beyoncé lmao so I purchased this mutha***** here... DAWG! Along with showing my hair some Tender Loving Care (🙃) I have noticed a tremendous difference, as does my closest kin.(Thinking about purchasing the shampoo and conditioner. Update.)

I wouldn't wear it outside!
I've used this a couple times since I got it the other day. I put 3-5 drops of oil in my shampoo and some in my conditioner. I also did an oil treatment. It does seem to give more volume and for me, it defined my curls for a while. I will update in a few weeks on the growth factor. Another thing, it smells like pledge or a citronella candle. I wouldn't wear it outside. *UPDATE* I have noticed an inch of growth in about 3 weeks, but I think that's just a little bit more then what it would normally grow. It did help with new growth at my temples, and it does feel thicker, but I don't think it grew much more then usual growth. My opinion. Hope this update helps!

Gloppy
When I opened the bottle, the product inside was a solid, gelatinous mass. I thought it was just cold, so let it sit on my counter a couple of days to warm to room temperature, but it was still a solid. When I scooped some out, there were round, black seed-looking things in the gelatin. This is a non-returnable item, nevertheless, I felt like the item I got was defective. I contacted Amazon and they refunded my money. Thank you Amazon!

Very easy to apply and smells great!
I’m gonna give this oil a 5 star rating due to the ease of use of the bottle, smells great and it’s absorbed very quick. I can’t say it makes my hair grow because i have not been using it long enough to see growth results. I like it very much because it softens the scalp leaving a very light scent. I apply it once a week and leave it overnight. Only at the roots, not all of the hair. Then I do my wash routine next morning. I’m really happy with it!

Does what is says on the bottle. Brilliant product!
I bought this after seeing a positive review about it. Was suffering from severe postnatal hairloss to the extent where I had bald patches appearing. Been using this oil now for a couple of months and admittedly at first I wasn’t convinced but now I can see new hairs growing and a lot thicker. All I’ve been using is this oil twice a week massaged into my scalp, paying extra attention to the areas where my scalp had started to show through. Leave in overnight for maximum benefit. would definitely recommend!

It works!!
Smells great, easy to use. I lost my hair from chemo and found this helped my regrowth.In colder climates like where I live the oil solidified. So I pop it in a cup of warm water first to liquify it before use. It’s very greasy so you need to use a shower cap if leaving it in for a few hours. Looking at other people hair growth post chemo I seem to have more hair at the same stage as others. I took one star off because it’s messy.
