What makes Batana oil different

Authentic Batana oil is slow-made in small batches. It is naturally rich in emollients and antioxidants that help soften the hair cuticle, improve slip and reduce the feel of dryness. The texture is buttery at room temperature and melts instantly in your hands. The scent is warm, nutty and gently roasted.

Key benefits of Batana oil

1) Deep moisture and softness

Batana oil cushions dry fibres and leaves hair feeling supple after just a few uses. It is brilliant for coarse, curly and coily textures that crave richer care.

2) Less breakage, better length retention

Softer, more flexible hair is less likely to snap. Used consistently, Batana oil helps you keep the length you grow by reducing day-to-day breakage.

3) Scalp comfort

A small amount massaged onto the scalp can ease feelings of tightness and dryness. If you are prone to flaking, keep contact time modest and shampoo thoroughly.

4) Smoother cuticle, high shine

It helps lay the cuticle flatter which boosts natural gloss and reduces roughness without a heavy, greasy finish.

5) Colour-treated hair care

Colour processes can leave hair feeling straw-like. Batana oil helps restore softness and slip so coloured hair feels more manageable.

6) Fresher looking ends

Regular sealing with a pea-sized amount softens rough ends and improves the look of split ends between trims.

7) Frizz control

Applied to damp hair, Batana oil helps reduce flyaways and halo frizz, especially in humid conditions.

8) Protective styles support

Braids, twists and wigs benefit from targeted moisture. Use micro-amounts to keep natural hair comfortable under protective styles.

9) Easier detangling

The rich slip reduces tugging so wash-day detangling is faster and gentler.

10) Versatile finishing

Scrunch a fingertip amount through curls to revive definition or smooth over blow-dried lengths for a polished finish.

How to use Batana oil

Pre-wash treatment
Warm ½–1 teaspoon in your hands. Apply from mid-lengths to ends and, if your scalp tolerates oils, massage lightly at the roots. Leave on for 30–60 minutes. Cleanse with Repairing Shampoo and follow with Deep Conditioning Hair Mask.

Post-wash seal
Melt a pea-sized amount and smooth over damp hair to lock in moisture and add shine.

Targeted scalp nights
If desired, massage a fingertip amount into the scalp two or three evenings per week, then shampoo at your next wash.

Sleep protection tip
Reduce friction with a Satin Bonnet or Mulberry Silk Pillowcase.

Who is it for

All hair types can benefit, including coils, curls, waves and straight hair. It is especially helpful for dry, brittle, heat-styled or colour-treated hair. Always patch test first if you have sensitive skin.

FAQs

Does Batana oil regrow hair
There is no clinical proof that Batana directly stimulates follicle growth. It supports healthier-looking hair, reduces breakage and helps with length retention.

Will it make my hair greasy
Use less than you think. Start with a pea-sized amount and build gradually.

How often should I use it
One to three times weekly for repair. A tiny amount after each wash for shine and sealing.

Is it suitable for sensitive scalps
Often yes, although everyone is different. Patch test first and avoid leaving heavy oils on the scalp for very long if you are prone to flaking.
