Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is Maskriti?

Maskriti is Haitian black castor oil. The seeds are roasted, ground, then cooked in water, and the oil is filtered. It contains a single ingredient: castor.

It is made for dry, brittle hair, beards and dry skin.

How do I use it?

Warm a little oil between your hands, then massage it into the scalp, lengths, beard or dry areas of skin. Evening works well: the oil can stay on overnight.

For hair, a protective style (twists, braids) helps keep moisture in.

Which hair is it for?

Maskriti is made for hair that absorbs moisture very quickly without keeping it: dry, brittle, fragile. If your hair is fine, use very little and focus on the ends.

Can it be used on children?

Gently, in a very small amount, avoiding the eyes and mouth. A test on a small area is advised before the first use. If in doubt, ask your paediatrician.

How should I store it?

At room temperature, away from direct light and humidity, with the bottle tightly closed.
