I've used this oil on my scalp as a sort of deep conditioner or hot oil treatment in the past and found really nice benefits. Hair was shinier, smoother, better able to manage, and one of the things that shocked me was a texture change. Some of the reviews I read on forums about this oil was that it also helped darken their hair and I thought that was pretty interesting and while I did notice a slight darkening of my hair, I didn't really place a major emphasis on it.

The only downside to this oil, I thought, was the smell but I believe that part of that has to do with the kind of oil I bought. When I finally got the pure Amla oil the smell was a lot more sweet and calming, and it actually put me in a state of ease where I would actually find myself wanting to take a nap it caused me to relax so much.

Anyways, if anyone's tried this oil before or have any stories on it's various benefits, please share.
