SHEA MOISTUREamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen Grow and Restore Treatment Masque, 12oz

Amazing product. I use this for my deep conditioning every two weeks and after 3 uses, I have noticed a lot of difference. My hair looks healthier and shinier. It also feels softer and slightly thicker. I have noticed some growth around my edges as well. The smell is heavenly and even after a few days and use of my leave-in conditioner, I can still smell it on my hair. I apply a generous amount to my damp hair after conditioner - washing (co-washing). I don't have a dryer and so I wrap my hair in cling film and let the cream sit for about 30 mins. The description suggests 20 mins but I leave on for longer mostly because my hair needs it and the smell as well :). It doesn't itch and my really sensitive scalp responds well to it.The cream is fairly thick and I reckon I could get another 3 uses out of it for my 8-inch Afro natural hair. Not bad for the price

After purchasing multiple hair treatments for my bleached hair I was losing hope to find something magical and to be fair decided to go back to more natural hair colour and dye(henna), so my hair is in a lot healthier state now! But before I made any drastic changes, I was counting on this mask to make my hair feel silk smooth, easy to manage, moisturised and shiny! Absolutely amazing product, you don't need a lot of it and it's thick and easy to apply! Really impressed and will be buying again!

The product worked well on my hair, it was soft and manageable, however, the tub should be bigger, I have a lot of hair and in one use most of the tub was empty. For the price we have to pay it should be bigger. I would like to purchase it again, however, the pricing with package cost puts me off.

I have type 3b-3c curls and I dye my hair regularly. I also sometimes have it curly, sometimes straight. There is no heat damage to my hair (if I straighten, I leave my hair to air dry, followed by iron at 180C with heat protection serum and my hair is only straightened once a week on wash day) however it is naturally very dry and I have noticed it is getting drier as I age...This has done the trick. I have used Kerastase products in the past and this is actually better. You don't need much, it's quite a thick product. It is leaving my hair in much better condition, the curls are soft and last longer. My hair is nourished and shiny.If you'd like to know, here's what I do: I brush (on dry hair with a tangle teaser) wash my hair (shampoo only), towel dry gently and add the masque, which I leave on for 30 minutes. Then rinse (head down over the bath) and squeeze the extra water out gently. I follow with the leave in conditioner from the same range, finger comb, then Denman brush to be fully tangle free (still head down), give it a little shake, squeeze the curls gently and finally plop for 30 minutes. No need for gel...I leave to hair dry or occasionally diffuse on low heat in winter. I put it up in a loose high bun at night time. Come wash day, it's not tangled at all, but I do wash my hair twice a week when it's curly. My hair is long (middle of the back).

First time buying Shea Moisture products and I must say I Love Love Love them.I have been transitioning for over a year now and have struggled to find products that really moisture my hair. All my old relaxed hair products don't work, obviously. And my hair has just been getting by until now. I used this Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen Grow And Restore Treatment Masque along with the same Leave-In Conditioner and my hair feels so soft and healthy. I didn't need to use anything else for my blow out. So glad I have found products that work for my hair. I will be purchasing more from the range. Also the products from this seller came sealed with a film lid, which is always reassuring when buying on the Internet. So give it a try. My hair smells abit like chocolate too, bonus :)Don't delay, buy today!

This was recommend by one of my hairdressers who specialises in cutting naturally curly or Afro hair. My hair is fine and straight and is soooo dry. (I'm half Turkish and half English and my hair is more English...) No matter what I've previously put in my hair ends (oils etc), about a week after having a haircut, the ends fuzz out and look backcombed. I'm not kidding. I'm not even using my hairdryer at the moment. I've tried using the shampoos and conditioners I've seen friends with great hair using in gyms, but my hair refused to change its ways.This is fabulous. Used as a mask after shampooing (keeping on for 40 mins under a shower cap), my hair looks soft, shiny and the ends actually look tamed. It looks like well behaved hair again - wow! The rest of the hair looks great too. (No grease or heaviness.) Having only used it once or twice, the effect wears off after a couple of days, but as my hairdresser reminded me, hair masks only work if you keep using them every few days at first. I intend to!

Great hair mask for thick, curly hair. I apply it once a week to wet hair, after shampooing. My hair has been feeling dry for sometime after having bleach highlights, yet I have found this has been able to get rid of the feeling of dryness and made my hair feel more healthier. I tend to leave it on for 20-30 minutes, however I do feel it needs a hour or two to be left on hair to see it’s full effectiveness as it is quite thick and requires a lot of attention to make sure it applied to all sections of hair evenly. Might be pricey compared to some hair masks, but this is probably the best hair mask for those with thick, curly and wavy hair.

I bought this recently and was SO excited to try it out. I have thick curly hair and the reviews I read on here were promising so I gave it a go and left it on my hair for a little over an hour (just to make sure it'll work). When I first washed it out my hair was very soft but after drying it had returned to its normal, dry self (yay). My sister had also tried this product in the past and she seems to think it works for a couple of washes, then stops, so I'd suggest alternating! Overall the smell is great and it arrived on time, and I'm still hopeful it will work with a few more tries :)
