It’s so amazing. I bought the product with the intention of only using it on my hair but then I started drinking it and using it on my face. Starting with my hair, the growth is honestly immaculate I’ve incorporated it in my pre poo with aloe vera and it makes my hair extremely soft. I also blend them after soaking them in water and it makes a great deep conditioner with added essential oils from hambelela ofcourse. It reduces the amount of dandruff and itchiness I had which is a great relief. For my skin I’ve seen a huge reduction of black spots and scars. It gives my skin an amazing glow and it’s honestly worth the hype definitely recommend

I actually got this sides to help with breast milk but eventually sow it had more to do, like using it for my hair. My partner initially joined me to improve his testosterone level and I tell you it has really helped him, his voice is fuller and hair that struggled to grow has even grown.. I don’t ever making this choice.
