Summary: Did nothing for my hair except add high shine...
Comment: I recently tried this product again, as a little sample was provided in the Tawaka Discovery Kit (I only liked the Conditioner from this collection). Anyway, the smell was so repugnant that I felt nauseous for several hours after applying a tiny amount to my dry hair. Luckily for me I just applied a little and used a decent hair moisturizer to cancel out the effect. Also, this product made my relaxed hair feel brittle. The only thing this "treatment" provided was high shine that was almost unnaturally "too shiny"! If it wasn't for the shine factor, I would rate this product at most a 1-star.

Summary: I love this product! I am white and have coarse, dark, colored
Comment: hair. My hair is about shoulder length. I use this product about three times a week. I put about 1/2 tsp amount in my hands and rub them together until it is a liquid then put it on the ends, massage my scalp, and then go down the length of my hair. I put it on before I take my bath and I think the heat helps it absorb. At least that is the excuse I use to lock myself in the bath and soak in bubbles! My hair is very soft and managable. And this is the first time in years I haven't had problems with my hair color (dark warm brown) fading out before the next touch up is due. It makes the hair look oily while it is on, which makes sense it is an hair oil treatment, but it rinses out nicely. I wouldn't use it as a leave in conditioner unless you use a really small amount. The directions say as a leave in to use the amount of a piece of rice. I haven't tried that yet. I use the body lotion of this product as a leave in, though, and it works great. I am glad I bought this product and will continue to use it. I keep about 2 tablespoons in a travel size container in the bathroom and the big container in the refrigerator. Nothing in the directions says to do this, but it says the product is "high in antioxidents" and it is an oil without a preservative. So, since it lasts so long and both of these (antioxidents and oil) breakdown in heat, I just do it.

Summary: This treatment is BEYOND amazing!!!!!
Comment: This restorative hair treatment is absolutely wonderful, and I can't wait to see the results after using it for a month.

I've used Carol's Daughter on my daughter's hair whose 15 months old for about 3-4 months on my daughters hair, and whilst being somewhat pleased, I wasn't overly excited about the results. After using CD's products, it looked great that day, but after that....it looked as I didn't do anything with it...just a dry as the day before I washed it. Although still using it, a friend still saw how dry may daughters has was, so she recommended OJON. She mentioned that my daughter had the same grain of hair as her grandchild and that I should try it. My daughter has a very curly yet soft grain of hair, almost like that of a bi-racial.

After only using it for a week I've noticed a HUGE difference. Her hair is no longer extremely dry, and untangles very easy. Her hair doesn't sound like someone is eating an apple when I put the comb to it anymore. And on top of that her hair is growing very healthy. I definitely can see her hair growning where there was once a dry and slightly bald patch. Since she's so little her hair is growing fast.

So, needless to say, I am very pleased with the results and if this item was ever discontinued I've been a very sad customer, because I've tried all the other brands (carols daughter, just for me, pink oil moisturizer, blue magic) yet none of them give me these results without being overly greasy which makes it look very natural. Too much grease....just doesn't look appealling and unatural.

Thanks OJON! After only using the product for a week, I can imagine what her hair would look and feel like after using it for a month!

Summary: Not so magical
Comment: I bought this product because my stylist (Ulta Salons) recommended it. Then i decided to come read the online reviews to see how good of a product it was. Nevertheless i have to say that i didnt see any differnce in my hair when using this product if anything i was experiencing more breakage. I have permed african american hair. I am not impressed at all. However, thanks to the other reviwer that broke out the ingrdients, i have started making my own conditoner and hair oil and that had been working GREAT!!!! Regarding the smell i do not mind it at all.

Summary: Worth the money!
Comment: Let me start by saying I have the worst hair imaginable. I have mixed Caucasian and African American hair that is super-kinky, not that curly smooth kind. My hair is relaxed and fried from relaxer and hot irons. I color it brown/black to give it some shine and make it look healthier. I have to use tons of shine products and smoothers on my hair.

I bought the ritual kit and started with the restorative treatment and left it on overnight. I washed/conditioned it in the morning with their Hydrating Shampoo/Conditioner. I didn't like the way my hair felt so while I was still in the shower I used my Wen Cleansing conditioner (from Chaz Dean). When I blow dried my hair, all I can say is WOW! My hair has a nice color and shine to it and is soft and looks healthier. It doesn't look stripped and dry like it usually does. My hair has a nice bounce, isn't greasy at all and looks good for a change. I added a tiny amount of the treatment to my ends before using the curling iron on it and my hair looks great. I highly recommend this stuff. I would just buy the treatment though and use your own favorite Shampoo/Conditioner with it as I didn't think their shampoo/conditioner were anything special.

There are people that complained about the smell. It smells like a hazelnut caramel macchiato to me. It wasn't over powering though so it didn't bother me at all. Don't let the smell scare you away. If you have fried hair, you need this stuff!
