What color is the oil? I just bought a different brand of Jamaican black castor and it was a deep golden color. I thought it would be a lot darker

My oil is plain ( water ) translucent appearence in color It has a smoked odor . I was expecting a deep golden color also . As I recall , it was described to be as such when I ordered it . I used it from the bottle as it is . I noticed a lot of hair breakage . It was as though it burned my hair . My hair felt different from usual . Now I mix a little with some other ingredients to give myself a hot oil treatment . I would not especially buy this stuff again for any super effects above any other oil good for hot oil treatments .

The oil is a dark golden color. Almost looks black in a clear bottle. Persistance in use is the key. I Usually apply a hot cloth to open the pores a couple of times and then apply the oi.

I use the French dark roast and they are oily. There is no problem! The beans I use are virtually black!

Mine was dark brown also, with slight grey edges. It turned out fabulous. Pretty much like what you see in the picture. I was surprised and quite pleased with it. I did add a little bit of Olive oil for conditioning, and let it sit overnight, as instructed. I also diluted it enough to come out of a bottle used for coloring hair so it would go further. I tell you what, I am happy and I will buy from this company again. Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I know you will be happy. :)

The jar is brown. But the oil is not. Its just normal coconut oil. White-ish when it is solid and clear when it is not.

Speaking for me. I have dark hair. It appears to be the same color. I don't detect that it has darkend my hair, nor has it made it lighter. I generally use it as a hot oil treatment overnight. Sorry, don't know how much help I was to you.

brownish black.....lol no seriously it's a VERY dark Vandyke brown. so in the sunlight it appears almost black. we love our piece. only thing that happened: the table has a glass top. I don't know where you live, but we are in Kansas and in the summer our temps go up to over 100 degrees. so with that intense sun on the glass top it actually made our rattan underneath it melt....really it just melted away. so we don't have a table anymore in our set, I don't know if the manufacturer wasn't aware of this. just letting you know

It is Raw African Black Soap, however, please be sure to note the seller's name. If this is the same seller from my review which I assume you are referencing I would not purchase. If it's a different seller and the reviews are favorable then I would buy it. Hope this answers your question. I still love Black African Soap, just not the seller I purchased from last time. They sell a crumbling product with lot's of impurities, and are not in the least interested in correcting their mistakes.

I bought the oil rubbed bronze, which is very dark but not black. Looks good with other oil-rubbed bronze finishes in my space.

Mine looks like a deep deep brown. Darker than my walnut stuff, but I probably wouldn't mistake it for black.

I've never used One & Done but everyone sad that Natural Black Bronzer (the purple bottle) is better. That's the one I use and I love it! I've gotten so much darker very quickly. It smells like piña colada and isn't greasy at all.

We got it 2 years ago, so color might be different now. It is dark brown with a reddish cast I think. Will have to check when we get home.

you should probably exchange/return the product. it should be a light-weight, golden oil and should be very spreadable.

Yes, thats something I like about the organic castor oil, it comes in a dark glass bottle. I use it every night on my face and hands. It makes my face look nice and keeps the arthritis out of my fingers. I will use it all the time.Shirley Smiley

Ive seen a few videos on youtube, many women do vlogs on herbal hair care products. For relaxed or permed hair, they said its best to use clear or white castor oil. Jamaican black castor oil has such a high salt content, that it can lead to severe breakage on your hair, so its not the best thing to use on your relaxed/permed hair, only if you're ALL natural. I would say if you're going to use this, try to get as much info about this product as much as possible.

mine is not yellow...are you sure you ordered the white oil and not the one that comes with yellow/orange color/butter flavored?I have ordered two of the white oil and both are pure white, actually clear when melted...great stuff...it does not taste or smell like coconut like you think it would...it is not the same smelling stuff that you get for sun tanning! I use this for everything: cooking, skin, in my pets food...you can pay a lot more for small containers called organic or 100% pure but this is the same and a great quality and you can not beat the price...definitely NOT CRAP as someone stated. mine is not yellow...are you sure you ordered the white oil and not the one that comes with yellow/orange color/butter flavored?I have ordered two of the white oil and both are pure white, actually clear when melted...great stuff...it does not taste or smell like coconut like you think it would...it is not the same smelling stuff that you get for sun tanning!

Were you referring to the Black Castor Oil or Red Pimento Oil? I'm asking about the Castor Oil. I've always gotten glass bottles but recently my order came in plastic.

Good morning. We sell authentic Tropic Isle Living Lavender Jamaican Black Castor Oil 8oz. This product is indeed as effective for hair loss as their pure Jamaica Black Castor Oil and the amount of Lavender Essential Oil added is also good for the skin/scalp while it slightly tones down the traditional "burnt nutty scent" of true JBCO while maintaining the effectiveness of the JBCO. We hope you will purchase from Jamaican Products USA.
