Hey dolls! What’s up?
Today I’m here with a review of a deep conditioner which also doubles as a leave-in conditioner.
Let’s get right into it.
Product: Organics by Africa’s Best Hair Mayonnaise.
I mistakenly picked up this product thinking it was the Cholesterol Tea-Tree Oil Conditioner by the same brand because they have the same packaging.
Product Information: Treatment for weak, damaged hair, with organic herbs, olive oil and egg protein.
Product Promise: Organics Hair Mayonnaise by Africa’s Best is enriched with Natural Botanical Herbal Extracts, Vitamins, Egg Protein and Olive Oil to condition, moisturize and strengthen damaged or over-processed hair.
I’m sure by now someone is wondering why I’ve been buying products for damaged hair, me sef I don’t understand lol.
Directions: For best results, use organics Stimulating Therapy Shampoo by Africa’s Best. After shampooing, massage a generous amount of Hair Mayonnaise evenly into hair from roots to ends. For extra conditioning, cover hair with a plastic cap or wrap hair with a warm towel for 10 minutes. Rinse hair thoroughly with warm water ans style as desired.
For daily use, rub a small amount between palm and spread evenly from roots to ends. Re-apply to weak, damaged areas and ends as needed.

I honestly didn’t know this product had mineral oil till I did this review.
Smell: Nothing fancy.
Consistency: Light and creamy.
Price: 850n – 1000n.
Where To Buy: I can’t find it online, I bought mine at a supermarket.
How I Use:
I use this strictly as a deep conditioner.
I’ve used with and without heat, with and without honey + oils.
I apply liberally all over my hair, twist, wait and rinse.
Pros
- It’s readily available and affordable.
- It comes in a tub, easy to use.
- It’s quite moisturizing and I love using it to detangle my hair.
Cons
- I do not like using products with mineral oil just because of personal preference.
- This product cannot be mixed with honey or other oils because of its creamy-light consistency, it just drips all over.
- I didn’t notice any significant strengthening as promised.
Will I Buy Again?
Well no, it doesn’t really do anything major for me asides moisturizing, it’s handy since it’s cheap but for functionality, no.
Have you used this conditioner? As a leave-in or as a deep conditoner?

I actually liked this product while using during my twa days for deep conditioning. Made my hair feel soft all the time. I can’t remember why I stopped using it.

I just recently used it cause I decided not to use the normal cooking mayo for dc and frankly, its just there; I’m not sure it did anything.

I currently use this product to steam my hair whenever I take off any protective hairstyle on my head. I have been using it for upwards of 4 years or more. It can be mixed with oil as I mixed in my Jamaican black castor oil. It does leave my hair tangle free, soft and easy to comb as I have natural hair(I transitioned last year) but I was using this product even when my hair was permed. It’s an okay product but nothing extraordinary. It’s affordable and easily accessible.

You Use it as a D.C. then? Glad it works for you.
It’s truly not extraordinary but good to have around.
Thanks for stopping by Emem!
