Summary: works well, smells divine, but way too expensive
Comment: Yeah, it works. But the thing is, I can get the same wonderful conditioning results with a cheap little jar of coconut oil from the african-american hair care section of my local pharmacy. I think I'll save myself 50 dollars and stick with that.
One rave though: the scent!! Omigod this stuff smells AWESOME. If they made a perfume or body lotion with this scent I'd consider splurging.

Summary: Nothing Special
Comment: I paid $55 for this stuff and expected it to be pretty amazing. Well I was very disapointed. I have hair down to the middle of my back, fine strands and thick and I knew it would be hard to get the conditioner in since it is somewhat wax-like, well not liquid is what I mean. So I thought to myself that the effort would be worth it. Anyway I got it through my hair and did some chores and watched a movie, I had it in my hair for about 4-5 hours. I washed it out, didn't feel anything intially, waited for my hair to dry and it looked/felt no different than before I used this product. I have used this product a second time since then, and I had it in my hair through my whole work day, and still the same result. I didn't mind the smell at all, but it does smell somewhat like coffee. The only reason I will continue to use this product is because I refuse to throw it away when it cost so much money. Maybe by the last application I will finally notice a difference.
Bottem line, don't waste your money, and I would never buy this product again. This is coming from someone who knows her shampoo's.

Summary: It Does Work!
Comment: I purchased this product a couple weeks ago and have used it twice since receiving it. The first thing I did when I got it was open it to smell it because I had read so many bad reviews on it just because of its smell. To be honest, I don't mind the smell at all. It IS a bit unusual and does have a little bit of a smokey hint to it, but it's not at all as bad as most people make it out to be. I completely agree with the person who compared the smell to 'mocha coffee'. For those of you who purchase this and can't get past the scent, just bare in mind that it does wash out completely.
As for how my hair felt afterward (I leave mine in overnight), it really did feel much softer and smoother. You also notice that you have less 'fly-aways' and any broken hairs will lay flatter on your head. It DOES NOT leave your hair greasy at all (something I was worried about). Just remember to evenly distribute it throughout your hair by combing it through really well, root to ends, until all of your hair is saturated. When you do wash it out, bare in mind that you won't notice any difference until your hair is completely dry. Once it is, you won't be disappointed!

Summary: Softer, more managable hair..
Comment: I actually got this product after reading about it for a few months when I had the money to splurge. I read several comments on it on various websites, including here, and I read one that had the 'breakdown of ingridents', which they claim you can buy all of them at a health food store and get the same results. Not true. I used the product overnight and washed it out the next day with my regular shampoo. After it air-dried, my hair was much more managable and softer, andover the next few days when I combed my hair, much less hair was left in the comb or on the counter as opposed to before I ever used Ojon. I am African American and I know this is expensive, but trust me, it works. So far, so good.

Summary: Won't work well on all types of hair
Comment: When I first opened this product I was excited about the little pamphlet inside. It looked like I was getting some special exotic oil that would transform my thick wavy blonde hair into a sleek glossy mane (like the woman on the box).
Upon first whiff, all was well. The product had a nutty earthy smell that seemed mildly pleasant. Unfortunately, when you put it on your hair, there must be some sort of chemical reaction, because the smell morphs into something awful like burnt popcorn. My boyfriend said it smelled like stale cigarette smoke.
As for the results in my hair: I have very thick hair. It is slightly damaged (colored), but not a disaster. I found that Ojon was WAY too heavy/greasy for my hair. Even after a thorough shampooing it still felt like I had oil residue (and smell) in my hair. I think this product would work much better for someone who has relaxed hair that is coarse in texture. Or for someone who is used to the build up from stying products.
Even then, $50.00??? I can get a blowout for that price and have my hair look awesome. Or a new pair of shoes...

Leave on for 10-20 minutes, and shampoo well.As a Leave-In Conditioner: Warm a small amount in the palms of your hands until it becomes a lightweight oil, and distribute thoroughly through towel-dried hair. Style as usual.As a Shine Enhancer: Heat a very small amount in the palms of your hands and smooth over the surface of dry-styled hair.
