Customer Reviews of Dabur Vatika Coconut Hair Oil 150ml (Pack of 2)
Customer Review: LOVE this oil!
Summary: 5 Stars
I use a variety of oils on my hair and this one is definitely a favorite of mine. I love coconut oil, so the fact that this product is a combination of that and other great oils/ingredients convinced me to buy it. (I'd been hearing a lot of good things about this product as well). I have long, thick, relaxed hair, and I use about a quarter-sized amount on my entire head of hair after moisturizing. It makes my hair very soft, shiny, and manageable! I am on the fence about whether or not I like it better than plain coconut oil, but it is at least just as good! I was a little afraid of how it would smell since I'd been reading generally negative remarks about the smell, but I actually like it. It smells lemony, with a hint of coconut. The lemony smell makes it smell a bit like a cleaning product, though, but it doesn't bother me.
The only thing I don't like about this product is the packaging. There is a hole in the top of the bottle (you need to puncture it in order to make the hole) that you have to pour it out of. The oil comes out quickly, which means that it's easy to pour out more than you need. It also gets pretty messy because what didn't go into your hand after you're done pouring will leak down the side of the bottle (this is also a waste of oil!). Additionally, I live in Chicago and it's winter, so I have to heat this bottle up every time I want to use it because the coconut oil solidifies in cold temperatures. A jar would be a much more appropriate container for a coconut oil-based product.
Here are the ingredients, for those interested: Coconut Oil, Neem, Brahmi, Fruit extracts of Amla, Bahera and Harar, Kapur Kachri, Henna, Milk, Rosemary Oil, Lemon Oil, TBHQ (t-butyl hydroquinone), Fragrance.
Customer Review: So good so far.

Alot of people have complained about how stiff or mushy the product is. when i first got it, it was solid. like shea butter or maybe even thicker or harder then say crisco. my house has a steady temp of about 70-75 degrees. after a few hours the product is now moist and has a consistency of maybe vaseline or even better shampoo or conditioner. you have to pierce a hole at the top which i used scissors for and it spurts out just fine (no difficulties). since its made from coconut it does have a light smell of coconut which isnt bad. i add this product to a spray bottle with my favorite smelling oils to create a spritz. if you want to do that look up Lemon 100% Pure Essential Oil -10 ml natural oils on here. i use lemon grass, orange and lemon. lemon grass is the strongest of the three for smells and only requires 4 drops in a 8 ounces. im also thinking about using this product with shea butter to create a paste to apply directly to my scalp and maybe add some tea tree oil and other oils. im a natural, black, with type 4a hair. its dry and crunchy as hell and im hoping this product will help moisten my scalp and soften my hair. i will post later on the effects so far. hope this helps!!Customer Review: magic in a bottle

when i first opened the bottle i thought the oil smelled weird, kinda like a coconut,lemon,henna,mystery mix.after a few uses the odor grew on me and i have learned to love it. i rub the oil in my hair and scalp and leave it on for at least an hour(heat the oil in the microwave if it is solid). sometimes i will leave it on all night and wrap my hair with a satin bonnet or scarf and wash it out in the morning.now i am Caucasian and have thin dry chemically damaged hair, but after 2 weeks of using this oil everyday i found my hair to shine and curl like never before. i used to straighten my hair everyday but because it had gotten so damaged i wanted to find something that would help heal my hair as i have now banned all heat appliances.i just brush my hair with a wide comb until it is dry after a shower and.*poof* beautiful hair.sometimes i mix the oil with castor oil, and id imagine if the smell was too "unusual" one can just put a few drops of another oil or conditioner with it.Honestly this product is wonderful and i plan to keep it involved in my hair care regimine.Customer Review: Natural hair queen

This has to be one of the greatest hair products Ive found.. I am a natural hair stylist of many years and I use this oil on many of my natural clients. It also works on relaxed hair but not as well. The ppl that have written bad reviews for this product may not have knowledge of natural oils or how to use them. This product does not smell like something you would find in a typical beauty store, mainly because it is a NATURAL product and not filled with ingredients that are placed in many of those cheap hair growth-stunting products. To get the best results from this product, use it on damp hair. If used on dry hair, use only a very small amount This products is a very lightweight oil and I use it on my own hair and it adds a brilliant shine..I also use it on my son to twist his hair after washing and it provides great manageability and softens his hair a lot. The oil is solid when u receive it but u can just put it in a cup of warm water for a few moments or microwave it for about 15 seconds. I hope my review can help someone else out there.Customer Review: Great hair oil
Summary: 4 Stars
The oil is wonderful, but someone buying it should know. It comes solid. I live in the Eastern part of the USA and I ordered and recieved this product in December of 09. It is now April 2010 and the product has not "thawed" out. So I thought people should know- the quality is great- has a light scent somewhat a pleasant lemon scent- NOT like furniture polish at all. The oil texture is light, a olive oil appearance and slight olive oil texture. Since the day I recieved this product I have had to place the container in hot tap water for about five minutes. The product should be fully melted in that time. It does return to a solid state once cooled. I am sure in warmer climates or seasons it would be fully liquid. Like I stated, it is 4-2010 and it is still in solid form. The oil has various herbal ingredients with a fresh lite smell
You get two containers- small- but the oil is great quality. Good for ethnic hair mainly or a very small amount on other hair types. I hope this helps!
