Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment

First to recommend

7 people recommended this item

Description

Ojon says that its Restorative Hair treatment can be used leave-in conditioner, shine enhancer, and moisturizer. I like to use to get rid of flyaways and to groom my eyebrows (I then apply a dark eyeshadow on my brows). You can feel good about using it, because Ojon has created thousands of joisturiobs for indigenous people who harvest palm nut oil from the Ojon tree, which grows only in Central America. As it's made of palm oil (one of nature's most saturated oils), it congeals. The fragrance reminds me of pipe tobacco, but I happen to like it.
