FAQ:
How long should I leave Batana oil in my hair?
The ideal length of time to leave Batana oil in your hair depends on your hair type, scalp condition and how you are using it.
For a scalp treatment
Leave Batana oil on the scalp for at least 30 minutes. For deeper nourishment, it can be left on overnight and washed out the next day with a gentle shampoo.
For dry or damaged hair
You can leave Batana oil in the hair for several hours, overnight or all day until your next washday, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends. This helps reduce dryness and breakage and improves the overall feel of the hair.
For fine or oily hair
If your hair is fine or your scalp becomes oily easily, 30 to 60 minutes is usually enough. Using it as a pre-wash treatment helps avoid weighing the hair down.
For targeted areas such as edges or thinning patches
A small amount can be left on these areas without rinsing, especially if applied lightly and massaged in well.
How often should I do this?
Using Batana oil 2 to 3 times per week is ideal. Results come from consistent use rather than leaving it in for longer each time.
Top tip
Always start with a small amount and adjust based on how your hair responds. Batana oil is rich, so less is more.
If you have a sensitive scalp or a medical condition, patch test first or seek advice from a healthcare professional.
