Hair Care: Apply a generous amount of Jahaitian Original Black Castor Oil to hair, from roots to ends, and massage thoroughly to ensure the product is absorbed into the scalp and hair. Massage for at least one minute to encourage growth. Use daily for very dry and irritated scalp. Hot Oil Treatment: Thoroughly saturate hair and scalp with Jahaitian Black Castor Oil, cover with plastic cap and place under dryer for 7 minutes or allow natural body heat activate by wearing a plastic cap for 15 minutes. Skin care: Apply directly to desired areas and massage into skin. Use more for extremely dry areas of the body.
