Batana Oil is packed with nutrients that promote hair growth, reduce hair loss, and restore shine and softness. It's known for reversing damage, nourishing the scalp, and encouraging thicker, healthier hair—all without harmful chemicals.

Our Batana Oil is ethically sourced from La Moskitia, Honduras, where the American palm tree (Mauritia flexuosa) grows.

The cost reflects the labor-intensive process of harvesting, drying, and cold-pressing the nuts manually.

This supports local communities and traditional extraction methods.

After this, the oil is imported to the U.S. for packaging.

We publish independent Intertek lab reports (FT‑IR purity > 99 %) on a dedicated science page. You can review the certificates, spectra overlays, sourcing details, and our purity protocol any time here.

When used as directed, Batana Oil is generally safe, but we recommend a patch test before extensive use to check for potential allergies or sensitivities.

Here are the detailed steps to effectively apply batana oil to your hair:

STEP 1: PREPARE YOUR HAIR

1. Start with Clean or Damp Hair: You can apply batana oil to freshly washed hair or slightly damp hair. Make sure your hair is free from other hair products like gels or hairsprays.

STEP 2: MEASURE THE OIL

1. Determine the Amount: The quantity of batana oil you need depends on your hair length and thickness. Typically, you'll need a few tablespoons for long, thick hair or less for shorter or thinner hair. Pour the desired amount into a bowl or your palm.

STEP 3: APPLICATION TO SCALP AND HAIR

1. Massage into the Scalp: Use your fingertips to gently massage the batana oil into your scalp. Start at the roots and work your way to the tips. This scalp massage helps stimulate blood circulation, promoting hair growth and overall scalp health.
2. Apply to Hair Length: After massaging the scalp, apply the remaining oil to the length of your hair. Ensure that every strand is coated with the oil. If you have very long hair, consider dividing it into sections to apply the oil more evenly.

STEP 4: LEAVE-IN OR RINSE-OUT

1. Choose Your Application Method: Depending on your preference and hair type, you can choose to either leave the batana oil in your hair as a deep conditioner or rinse it out after a specific time.
2. Leave-In Treatment: To use batana oil as a leave-in treatment, simply apply it as instructed in the previous steps and leave it in your hair. You can wear it throughout the day or overnight for a more intense treatment. If you plan to leave it in overnight, consider covering your hair with a shower cap or a silk scarf to prevent staining your bedding.
3. Rinse-Out Treatment: If you prefer a rinse-out treatment, leave the batana oil in your hair for about 30 minutes to an hour. This allows the oil to deeply penetrate your hair and scalp. Afterward, wash your hair with a mild sulfate-free shampoo and use a conditioner. This ensures your hair is thoroughly cleansed and conditioned.

STEP 5: FREQUENCY

1. Determine How Often to Apply: For best results, it's recommended to apply batana oil to your hair once or twice a week. Consistency is key, as the regular application will help you maximize the benefits of the oil over time.

STEP 6: ADDITIONAL TIPS

1. Comb Through: After applying batana oil, use a wide-tooth comb to distribute the oil evenly through your hair. This helps ensure that every strand is coated and maximizes the benefits.
2. Cover and Protect: If you choose to leave the oil in your hair overnight, it's a good idea to cover your hair with a shower cap or a silk scarf. This not only prevents staining your bedding but also helps trap heat, allowing the oil to penetrate more effectively.

You may start to notice initial improvements within a week of consistent use, such as increased hydration, shine, and a start of growth spur. More significant results, such as complete hair growth and skin repair, typically take several months to a year.

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, and it can last up to two years.
