When it comes to hair oils, I’ve tried them all—or so I thought. Although jars of jojoba, castor, and rosemary oils have all been in my hair care drawer at one point or another, I’m realizing that there are still some growth products I haven’t gotten around to testing. One example? Batana oil.

It’s only recently that I learned about this strand-strengthening ingredient, which comes from palm trees in Central and South America and is known to moisturize and repair damaged locks. After hearing about batana oil’s impressive benefits, I was convinced that I needed to try it for myself, and have since added this $20, all-natural YBW option to my cart.

For those who, like myself, are new to this oil, allow me to catch you up to speed on what makes it worth the buy. “When applied to the hair shaft, [batana oil] is deeply nourishing and hydrating,” certified trichologist Sara Hallajian previously told InStyle. According to the expert, batana oil’s fatty acids also help hair retain moisture and shine.

While I may have been sleeping on batana oil, it’s clear many others haven’t. The YBW Batana Oil has been purchased over 10,000 times this month, and plenty of shoppers have seen great results. One reviewer struggling with post-partum hair loss said they’ve seen “so many baby hairs growing,” while another saw their thinning edges come “completely back” after two months of use.

In addition to growth, others noticed improvements in overall hair health. One shopper reported their strands feel “much softer, more hydrated, and less prone to breakage,” adding that they now have “less frizz” and a "healthier" scalp. A second shopper also mentioned their hair feels “thicker, healthier, and has a noticeable shine.” Despite the oil’s thick consistency, the same shopper confirmed it “absorbs well without leaving [their] hair greasy.”

For best results, the brand recommends gently massaging the product into the scalp for three to five minutes and letting it sit for up to 20 minutes before rinsing it out. If you’re on the quest for a fuller, stronger mane, snag the YBW Batana Oil for only $20 on Amazon, and check out more popular hair growth oils, below.
