This is not any oil, this is therapy. You can use it for many beautification purposes. It enhances the skin when applied. But what I used it for is to smoothen my hair. Just apply it before sleep and the next morning you'll wake up with shining hairs.Now you can have any of these approaches. Take a little amount and apply directly or mix it with any other hair oil as this one is quite thick. The aroma of this oil initially smells okayish but after your hair soaks it, this smells like heaven.Go for it totally worth it. Best in castor oil.
