Comments
There isn't an oil specific to curl pattern. The oils that work best for your hair depend on texture and porosity. Fine hair does well with light oils like grapeseed, almond, and apricot kernel. Low porosity hair, regardless of texture, usually doesn't absorb castor oil well. If it helps, I know many of the 4a posters in the past had great results with castor oil.
