Hortaleza Professional Black Pelan Hot Oil and a Giveway



A lot of my blog readers have been anticipating posts about my hair. It’s also pretty obvious with what my most popular blog post is. You probably all know that I love experimenting with my hair and some of you might be wondering, “bakit hindi pa sira ang buhok ko.” Trust me, it got damaged but I have managed to fix it again.  I’ve also already told you the story of how my hair was saved by HBC’s Coco Milk Hot Oil Treatment and it’s one of the reasons why my hair’s all good now. But I remember on my first purchase of a conditioning treatment for coloring my hair at HBC, the sales attendant actually offered me to use the Hortaleza Professional Black Pelan Hot Oil Treatment.


The Hortaleza Professional Black Pelan Hot Oil Treatment contains Black Pelan silt, an organic substance which is rich in minerals and lipids. Its botanical and mineral components condition the hair and scalp for a healthier scalp and smoother and shinier hair. It is also formulated with Jojoba oil and Vitamin E to make hair healthy. - HBC

The Good Bits:

Never blow dried, just towel dried and voila, this is how my hair looks like now
The Black Pelan Hot Oil has helped my hair bring back its usual smoothness and bounce
The first time I’ve tried it in sachet form, I loved it immediately. And upon trying out again in this 500g tub, I was reminded of why I trusted HBC with my hair. It has a very nice scent and has a slight menthol-y sensation when left on your hair. Immediately after rinsing, you’ll feel the smoothness and how healthy you hair feels after using it. As you can see in the picture, it brought back the natural bounce of my hair and compared to my companions, I guess it looks like I have a pretty healthy, bouncy and smooth hair. That is taking into consideration how I’ve been coloring my hair often and changing hairstyles almost every month.

The Bad Bits:

None I can think of.

Over-All:

I would recommend this product especially as an after-color conditioning treatment. Use this every week and feel the huge difference even just on your second week. I’m giving this product a rating of 10/10. I love the effect on my hair and how it has helped me recover from a nasty coloring experience.

    my mom taught me about the free hot oil that can found inside our home. When my mom cooked laing she buy coconut milk, and she set aside the half cup of coconut milk for my hair. then she will apply it to my hair and leave it for 30 mins. after that I wash it with shampoo and conditioner. My hair was shiny and very in black. Try it. It's proven.

  18. To make my hair smooth and soft, I alternately use HBC's shampoo and conditioner everyday. And to make it healthier I just put on some hot oil twice a month. Don't forget to comb your hair at night before going to bed it helps release natural oil from your hair at the same time it relaxes your muscles also. :)

  44. Since I'm a SAHM, I shampoo my hair three times a week. I use conditioner everyday so that it will stay soft and smooth to touch. I don't blow dry my hair and let it dry by itself. I have a special comb to untangle every hair strand after washing. I avoid tugging and rubbing my hair from the towel that I use and just pat it instead. I also use DIY hair treatments once a week and whenever I go outside the house I bring my umbrella so that I can protect my hair from the damaging heat of the sun and or the acid that comes with the rain.
