- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Hey Guys! Welcome back to DIY Sundays! This time, I made a lightweight detangler for natural curly, kinky, coily hair using Marshmallow root & Slippery elm! Both herbs are super nourishing for the hair and scalp, providing awesome slip that will make detangling curly hair a breeze.
*Heads up. This detangler lasted about 1 week or so in the refrigerator without a preservative, so it will go bad fast. Its best to make small batches or use it up quickly. 🙂

Is it possible to use a preservative to make this last longer? which would you recommend?
can you add a preservative?
@@Monaemonroe19 Yes you can
I noticed that your suggested preservative for this recipe is Optiphen instead of the usual add l Germall plus. Is there a scientific reason for this or it’s just a suggested option
@@shyletmudzamiri7323 They're both good. Optiphen is a "natural preservative." I personally love LGP though. Some people say that it leaves crystal in their mixtures but I never had that problem. It's also cheaper.
Get a French coffee press. It will make it very easy to strain your products. And save your hands and not make a mess. Also freeze what you don't need. Put the cubes in a ziploc bag and thaw out what you need when needed.
chilid856(Lisa) Great ideas!! Thank you! It didn’t cross my mind to freeze some and the coffee press sounds like a lifesaver 😩😂😊
@@YayaDIYCreations NP glad to help. Yes it's a life saver. I got a real cheap on for about $10 at Olies here. It's like Biglots just a lil cheaper.
That is a genius idea!!! Thank you!
GREAT tips!!
Great idea! I hope to buy a french press when I get paid so that I can make some diy detanglers easier. I tried making flaxseed gel a couple of months ago & didn't like how much effort it took to strain the gel lol.
FYI.......you do not need to boil the roots to get that mucilage. Put it in a jar, pour water over and let it sit overnight. It will come out the same and you don't have to worry about it being how when you strain.
Love the video!
WOW seriously... how much of each and how much water please ? You put both, marshmallow root and slippery elm ? I need something for curly frizz hair
@@karine8738 i want to know as well!
Hey Guys! Would you like to see me take down and detangle my natural hair right after cornrows? I think it will be a great way to test out this all natural leave-in detangler. Also, if you have any suggestions as far as herbs go, let me know. 😊
Could you please make a video with combining BTMS and slippery elm? I am trying to make a similar product to Kinky Kurly Knot Today.
@@naavajo That is interesting! I will look into it and see what I can come up with for you. 👍🏽
Something odd. I’ve seen people use CurlyProverbs recipes a lot lately. Even businesses.
Miya Anderson Hmm 🤔 I’m not sure. I’ve heard of her but I don’t watch her videos. Although I see nothing wrong with inspiration, i did not get this recipe from her. My measurements and ingredients come from research and experimenting and trust me I don’t always get it right. 😅😂If I use an exact recipe or base, I always give credit and tag the source. I hope this helps 😊
P.s. For clarity, I went to her page and I could not find this detangler. So, I’m not sure. Please send me the link to her detangler. I would love to watch it. I love learning new things and watching creators create 😊
Yaya four diy detanglers and leave ins is the name under diy recipes.
Just an observation I’ve seen a lot of people use her recipes kinda like when a lot of OG naturals first started making diy recipes a long time ago like flaxseed gel and whipped Shea butter. If you’ve never heard of her well that’s surprising she’s known for some of the stuff you have on your channel especially henna recipes. You may find something new to learn 😉
Couple grams hydroethylene cellulose + %5 dimethicone + 10gr mango seed butter + 95 ml distilled water. Melt and mix all and let it cool. It will thicken kind of gel. Perfect for thick hair and low porosity hair
THANK YOU. I need 100% natural products without dyes or preservatives or fillers or alcohols because of allergies. Really looking forward to trying this.
Awesome! I hope it works out for you 😊
This recipe is a solid staple that works for ANY hair type! Thank you for sharing your recipe with us💜💜💜
I have been using this as a weekly leave in for two weeks. It has been a game changer in terms of moisture retention. Now I am chasing any other mucillage lol. I have used fenugreek for more than 6 months.
You use fenugreek as a detangler? How?
Gisèle vandervelde I still have not looked into fenugreek but I’ve heard so much about it. I will definitely be giving it a try. Glad to hear your results with the leave in, I’m excited to give it a try. 😊
I love using fenugreek.❤👍it really works. I use it in about 3 different ways & recipes.
@@YayaDIYCreations Check out ife360TV Naturally
Okra has great mucilage too
I made something like this and I'm in love. I used sliipery elm and flax seeds and use it as a detangler/gel/curlign cream. I LOVE it. works good in my daughters straight hair too without leaving a weird residue or making it greasy.
saxyroxy736 Yes! I love Flaxseed Gel as well. Mixing and matching ingredients helped me to find perfect combos that work for my hair 😊
Does flaxseed got mucilage? How did you use it with the slippery elm
@@judywealth1868 Yes, it does
Back n the days we used to use stockings to strain the mucelage out
Dude wtf, this is amazing and so helpful you deserve more views thank you SO much
TogunsuaXx Aw Thank you! 🙏🏽😊💜
I’ve used pantyhose/nylons when I made flaxseed gel before. Still had to squeeze it out but it was really easy to do and worked great.
I used jumbo tea bags. no need to strain
This is GREAT! It looks like flaxseed gel. I'm going to try it with marshmallow root powdee
I'm glad I saw this video. I just purchased the marshmallow root because my daughter has a mix of 3 different hair textures..so her hair tangles easily.
I couldn't avoid breakage when trying to detangle her hair with other products that were way more expensive.
I like that you added extra nourishment to the m.r.
I hope to get the same outcome. 🙂
This is amazing and thanks for including all the measurements. Can you make a creamy conditioner with marshmallow root and slippery elm as some of the ingredients please?
Thank you! And yes I can absolutely do that. 👍🏽
Yaya you are a Godsend. Thank you for sharing your creations with us 😆🥰🤍
This video is right on time. I have a shipment of the slippery elm and marshmallow root coming.
Amerika Verde Awesome! Hope it works out for you 😊
I love your hair recipes and yes please do a detangler video
tanisha warren Thank you! And will do 😊
tanisha warren totally agree
@@YayaDIYCreations did you ever make a detangler video. I looked but didn't see one.
I was looking up slippery elm and marshmallow root for poor digestion and found your video. Wow!
I am hooked on your channel. I can’t wait to try these for myself and my children. Thank you so much.
Live turned out more like a tea so I’m using mine as a leave in. I added castor oil, flaxseed safflower oil, peppermint, lavender, lemongrass, & orange oil so I’ll see and I’m looking for thickness and growth
Wow I just found the greatest channel ever. Thank you so much.
A good way to get your marshmallow root full benefit is to infuse it cold in the fridge overnight.
Thanks for sharing. Yes, I would like to see a detangling video.
Noted 😊
Excellent detangling recipe! Great job!
MyNaturalMyChoice Thank you! 😊
That is a beautiful 😻 spoon 🥄!!!
I just made this and added xanthan gum to the mixture. It is thick thick. I can't wait to use it.
Update?
@@chanela.7786 It works really good as a detangler but I did have trouble straining the mixtire
Do you think it would work well as a gel for like wash and go's?
@@hairgrowthlove.1994 - I got flakes galoreeeee
@@Natural21Lista that's what I was thinking when I read your initial comment... so sorry
I would love to see you combine the marshmallows and slippery elm to a flaxseed and aloe Vera DIY Styling gel. I think that combination would make a wonderful gel perfect for wash n gos! Also, at what point would you add the preservative to this recipe?
It really just depends on the preservative you have, but normally it’s last, prior to fragrance, in water or a cooled solution.
Thanks for the recipe. I’m going to add this to purple sea moss gel to make a pre shampoo.
Yes, please use it for a week to see the results
Amani Kafele Will do 😊
i love the slip
I’d love ❤️ to see how you use it. I’m glad I found your channel
Thank you! Glad to have you. I did record myself using it but it was right after my surgery, so I will be rerecording soon 😊
Trying this now...can't wait to see how it works! Thanks, Yaya! xox!!
Welcome! 😊
Looks awesome and something I could use for my colored hair....
I'm wondering how will this marshmallow root and chebe powder work together.
Oasis 2.0 Click the link for Handmade Soaps including Turmeric Soap, Hair Growth Oil and more pinkladybathandbody.com
I wonder if this can be made into a spray, with preservative of course
Nice. Will try.
Thank you so much! Making sonme tonight for my girls and I 😊
Looks very moisturizing😀. If its not too much to ask, can you do a diy deep conditioner/hair mask using healthy alcohols in the future?
Kidadah Gregoire Noted! I will definitely look into that 😊
@@YayaDIYCreations definitely checking the video listing for this because my hair need it.
Great video, thank you so much for sharing.
this video was SUPER INFORMATIVE. THANK YOU. you can use paint strainer HDX. Elastic Top Strainers or fine mesh strainer
I just found your channel and I'm obsessed with it! Would this recipe go well with the diy leave in conditioner? I noticed that they both had similar ingredients to the leave kinky curly leave in and I'm not tryna waste any more money buying it 😭
Hey Yaya, I hope this isn't trouble but I was revisiting this recipe and was wondering if after using the product is there anything you would add or change about the recipe based off you experience using it? Thanks ☺️❤️
YAAAAZ YAYA... I WANT TO SEE HOW THIS WORKED IN YOUR HAIR... PLEASE DO A VID ON THAT
This🎉what I was looking for 😱🙏💸🙌😆👍
Hey, that is great! If I want a more creamy detangler in what ratio would you add BTMS or any other emulsifier, or better do a video ;-) Love from Germany
I have all the ingredients I’m going to try it
Awesome! Heads up. It lasted about 1 week or so in the refrigerator without a preservative, so it will go bad fast. Its best to make small batches or use it up quickly. 🙂
I got to make this baby girl...thank you hun
Thank you! Have a blessed 2019 : )
Anytime! Thank you as well and Happy New Year! 😊
Wow nice
I find that using kitchen rubber gloves (a new pair) allows me to tolerate the hot substance while squeezing. As an alternative to squeezing, I saw another video for flaxseed gel where the person used a french press, saving both time and her hands. I am wondering if this can be frozen in cubes, and defrosted as needed? I saw that on another video too for a DIY gel. I found a cheap french press on Amazon and it should work here - if it can stop coffee grounds, it is fine enough to stop these herbs too.
What preservative can we add to make it last a little longer?
You can use a stocking= A FUNNEL
Use a stocking. I got a pair from CVS 1.29. Wait for it to cool, you will get the same effect. Cheese cloth doesn’t work. It fell apart on me
To help save this you can freeze it. Freeze it in ice cube trays. Then put the cubes on a ziploc and leave it in the freezer. When you are ready to use it, take a cube out, let it thaw and pour it into a small bottle. That way you don’t have to worry about trying to use it before it goes bad.
i used a shifter and waited about 10 --15 mins for the mixture to cooler and i got all the goodies
You could have used tea tree oil to keep it longer it increases the shelf life
I did use an essential oil blend that included tea tree oil, I believe. I never heard of it increasing the shelf life so I will definitely look into this and do more research. Thank you for your advice 😊
tea tree oil isn’t a preservative
@@sarahm2240 I never said it was all I said was it keeps the shelf life it doesn't preserve anything its keeps the fungus from growing just like it does for your hair there by increasing the shelf life
Rosemary essential oil helps as well with the antimicrobials, the problem is the fungi, I just add a few drops of Germaben (broad spectrum)
@@claudettewarner6151 so does tea tree oil both work great together
I would like to see you use the detangler after cornrows. In always trying to learn something. Thank you!
No problem. Noted 😊
Slippery elm is now an endangered tree due to over harvesting. Marsh mallow on the other hand is super easy to grow or readily available!
Lucie Marie Please note that this video was made over a year ago. Also, you are the second person to bring this to my attention within the last month. I have never heard of it. Thank you for sharing. Please allow time others to be informed and do their own research. I will look into it. However, I have 3 full bags of slippery elm that I use for medicinal purposes as well as for healthy hair and skin. I also use marshmallow root on the regular. Thank you for your comment.
You could use a tight to squeeze the gel out if you do not have cheese cloth.
you are very good compliments Do you think it is possible to add apple cider vinegar to make it even more effective? if so how much? thank you very much
What other companies may have preservatives amazon is currently out of stock. new SUBBIE LUV LUV LUV YOUR CHANNEL Im learning a lot
#Best Teacher Ever
Bramble Berry, Making Cosmetics
I drink that for my ulcers
I use marshmallow root often but I allow it to sit in water over night. It seems to work fine. I wonder if boiling it would be better.
thanks for the video. When I use this on my hair am I expected to wash it off?
I dry detangling my hair first cuz i have very low porosity than i gonna try those ingredients minus castor oil.and coconut not good 4 my hair once detangling first than apply ingredients than braid in section sleep in and rinse with filter water
Hi! Is marshmallow extract the same as marshmallow root or does it work just as well
Can I use aloe Vera juice?
Can also drink
Please do a cosmetic grade detangler
@8:13 I don't know I was using aloe vera every day. Learned the hard way that it needs to be frigerated like everyday. I started noticing I was breaking out on my hair line. I started thinking I was getting ring worm
What’s a good preservative and how long can you keep it in the fridge before it starts to form bacteria?
Una pregunta yo lo puedo usar con una botella con spray o solo con esa tapa
Where is it sold?
Did this cause any flaking like most natural gels do?
Is this the same method you’d use to blend herbal powders with oil ? Without water.
Is this leave in? Can I use just marshmallow root without slippery elm?
Hi Yaya, Loooved ♥️ This Video, THANK YOU FOR SHARING 😉♥️🙌🏼 *NEW SUBBIE* ♥️
Thank you for watching 😊💜
You need a preservative even in the refrigerator. It can and will grow bacteria yeast and mold that you can’t see or smell
I only find slippery powder. Is it possible to do the gel with only marsmallow root and it will be a good leave-in ? Thanks
Would Citric Acid be a good preservative for this?
Are you able to convert the measurements from grams to tablespoons/teaspoon
I want to see you use it! If your hair was already detangled, do you see any benefit in using this for hair growth and moisture?
Question.... Is a detangler the same as a Pre Shampoo?
Would a stocking work?
Great video. What can you use in place aloe vera because it dries out my hair and coconut oil too. Thanks
Cactus 🌵
Can I use marshmallow root powder with the slipper elm?
If I wanted to make a similar product to sell what preservative do you recommend I use
Aspirin
@@abelnodarse1841 What aspirin ? That is a joke !
Wil it turn creamy if you start whip it? Like with a whisk?
Can this be used as a steam treatment on my hair, please?
did you marshmollow powder dissolve or it stillhas specks in it
Love it and please do a video soon detangling it with your hair and show after it dries and show you taking it down from a twistout. I want to see if there's shine and body. Also let us know how long it lasted please. Thanks again Yaya!!!
bdm72257 Noted! I can definitely do that 😊
@@YayaDIYCreations Hi YaYa love your videos. Do you think this recipe will work for 4c tightly coiled hair with severe matting and tangles?? Thanks for any advice that you can give
Could I use marshmallow Root extract?
How often should it be used??
I hope you reply 😭 but if I freeze it and use it when I need it how long would it last
This is a great idea! I have not personally tried this, but logically, freezing food/water stops the growth of bacteria; or slows down the growth to almost zero. Therefore, I would give it a try and see how long it will last. I would guess around 2 to 4 weeks. Let me know how this goes if you try it. 😊
Can I consider making this for sale by using a preservative?
How did it work?
Where do you get the marshmallow root and slippery elm from?
Hi there did you make a Detangle video ? I had my hair in braids for a long time and there are those knots that are really, grease, lint and all. SOMETHING SALONS DON'T CARE TO TAKE OUT AND THEY RIP YOUR HAIR.
Can you show us how to use a preservative
yaya722334455 Sure thing. I have a whole series on preservatives coming soon 😊💜
