Did you know you don't have to wait 8 hours, or overnight, to make a great hair gel with Sepimax zen? Check out this video for more information! czcams.com/video/fmRLlQ8znhg/video.htmlsi=k4QsNvZREiM_SBgD
i love this jiggling gel, looks like it will be able to be soaked into my hair
Paint strainer bag idea is awesome! Grabbing some of those today. Will be so much easier than Cheesecloth.
Color and consistency looks amazing
I have to try this recipe for my dry natural hair! Tfs!
Soothing voice and music. Thank you for sharing 🦋
This looks perfect!!!
Cant wait to make. Mine looks like white hairs! I get excited about stuff like this. Natural.
This was such creative recipe, I'm def curious to try it out😍
Thx for the inspiration! You've got a beautiful voice.🌱
I JUST found your channel. What a great recipe. Thank you!
GREAT JOB DOLL🌸🏆
youre' my new, favourite person.
Have you used the powders? If so did they work?
Curious if you have a site or place you buy these items from regularly?
Adding Flaxseed is great too! 🌹
Hello thx a lot for the recipe sis
Would you please tell me how does it smell
Fenugreek smell isn't great as I know
Where did you buy your ingredients from?
Is their anyway I can purchase this from you?
Hey is there any way that you can do a twist out or a wash and go with this so I can see the results just asking because in ever video I've seen on people making this gel they don't actually show its affects on the hair. Thanks😊
I don't post hair tutorial videos.. Sorry. I can confirm, though, that I didn't have any flakes and my hair was shiny.
Interested to know what this is like. I've heard of flaxseed gel have you tried that? Comparison if you did?
I used to use Flaxseed gel all the time. However, it was difficult to keep it for an extended period of time and I couldn't really change the viscosity how I wanted to without making a mess. I like this recipe much much better than Flaxseed.
I was like why does she have a magic wand...I guess she's about to do something!
I like the way the gel looks but if she wants to sell her product then why half show us how to make it why not just do a review show how it works then sell it or the recipe ijs.
I don't sell products at all. I'm a consultant with regular DIYers all over the country and those who may want to someday step into creating their own product line.
Does this recipe require refrigeration? If yes, do you have recommendation for shelf stable alternative that does not require refrigeration? Thanks kindly : )
No. This gel has a broad-spectrum preservative and did not require refrigeration for the roughly 2 months it lasted for me.
Where do you purchase many of your ingredients? Love all your recipes 😘
I get the ingredients from many different suppliers. The easiest way to find a list is to go to my website here:
www.curlytea.com/listing-category/suppliers-wholesalers
For cosmetic ingredients, the 1st place I check is usually Lotioncrafter.com. If they don't have it, I move on to MakingCosmetics.com. And if they don't have it (lol), I move on to Ingredientstodiefor.com.
I use that order because ingredientstodiefor.com has A LOT to choose from, but their shipping is the slowest (for me) .
For natural products, ironically, I check Vitacost.com first because they ship very quickly and the way they pack their ingredients is outstanding. If they don't have it, I move on to Mountainroseherbs.com, which is absolutely the best source for natural teas and oils. They take longer to ship (for me).
Can you reuse the fenugreek seeds? Also does the fenugreek seeds cooks faster than flaxseeds?
Don't worry about cooking Fenugreek seeds. What you're looking for is the water to turn a very noticeable yellow color. Once the water is yellow, that's what you need. I've never kept fenugreek seeds afterwards, so I don't know how effective a 2nd and 3rd batch from the same seeds would be.
Hey I don't want to use marshmallow root as gel I want to use it as spraying live-in conditioner so Can I mix marshmallow root powder with water & glycerin & use it on my hair? Will that way it give me enough slip?
You can use marshmallow root. If you use the real root from mountainroseherbs, it will not gel up by itself. If want a spray, skip the gelling ingredient. As for slip, I'm not sure. If you want slip but don't want it to get thick, you may have to use something like Cassia Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride instead of the gelling agent.
Also plzz tell me can I make Marshmallow root tea? Like liquid water kind of consistency? Will that way it give me the slip ?? Or it will always end up being gel kind of consistency as soon as I put those roots on water ???
Dried Marshmallow root does not "gel" up by itself. You can use marshmallow root as you would any other tea.
Does the gel have the same amount of hold without the fenugreek seed?
Fenugreek seed itself doesn't provide any hold. If you don't have fenugreek seed, you can simply skip it or replace it with another herb.
Can the marshmallow root and slippery elm be substituted for powders. Ie. marshmallow powder & slippery elm powder, fenugreek powder? Thanks 🙏🏾
If you have a non-messy, effective way to strain the powder, go for it. I hate using powders because I hate having to try to stain it. If you don't want to worry about trying to strain powder, get the actual herb.
Ama be trying this with mallows roota weed that grows everywhere and is a cousin to marsmellow lol
Would it be possible to substitute the fenugreek seeds for something else? Maybe flaxseeds?
Fenugreek and Flaxseeds have different physical properties. Flaxseed gel is also notoriously difficult to keep for an extended period of time.
@@curlytea not really sis! I added a preservative to my Flaxseed Gel, it’s been over 5 months and no mold. 🌹
How did you learn how to make cosmetics? Any recommendations for chemistry classes or etc
For me it's trial and error, and a whole lot of research.
@@curlytea thank you that is so inspiring thank you for your transparency 💗 !
Where did you purchase all the roots and seed from? I can’t find it on amazon. It’s all powder @curlytea
I get a lot of the natural ingredients from mountainroseherbs.com. You can also try vitacost.com.
Can I use slippery elm powder instead?
I've never used the powered form, but I'm gonna say no because powders tend not to absorb fully. This gel will be left on the hair. If you have a great idea to strain the powdered version, please try it. But I've never been able to successfully use a powered herb outside of Matcha in a hair recipe without it leaving a mess in my hair. lol!
Where’d you get that preservative from?
I bought it from makingcosmetics(dot)com.
Beet root or hibiscus root for pink color? That would be so pretty.
Good idea! But try the hibiscus first. Every time I've tried to color something with Beet Root, it's faded over a few weeks.
Please please please make a diy recipe for a deep conditioner without using any food items such as banana or avocado. Just with Ayurvedic herbs
1/3 cup of fenugreek powder, 1/3 cup of hibiscus powder, 2 1/2 cups of water put on stovetop on low heat. When herbs are fully mixed turn off heat put lid on and allow to infuse for at least 8 hrs. Take off lid add 2 tbsp of penetrating oil like avocado oil, castor oil, olive oil etc. Mix with mixer and apply on wet hair, saran wrap or shower cap hair (put thermal heat cap or steam hair for extra absorption) let fenugreek hibiscus mask sit on hair for at least 2 hours. Has amazing slip to all hair textures especially type 4 hair. Enjoy!👍🏽
What do you think of adding flaxseeds to this recipe
Could you add an oil to this recipe?
I wouldn't. This recipe does not include any traditional emulsifiers to make sure whatever oil you add won't just separate out later. This is only a gel.
Did the preservative thicker the gel?
No the preservative didn't thicken the gel.
Did you test is on your own hair? Like a tutorial?
I don't post tutorial videos. But every video I've posted represents a product I've used on my own hair more than once, and usually over the course of weeks (actually closer to a month or so. That's partly why it takes me so long to post).
I have a question. With marshmallow root, I was told it was a preservative. Could you just use those 3 without the other gluconalactone (sp) additive? Or is the shelf life way longer with it?
Marshmallow root a preservative? Who told you that? Marshmallow root isn't a preservative.
@Justine, anytime water is used a preservative is a must for long term use.
Can you still access this recipe if you sign up? Thanks.
Yes. This recipe is still available for people who become members at the site www.curlytea.com/membership-account/membership-levels
Can you add a oil. Is the marshmallow root and slippery elm a humectant? Is this like a curling custard or jelly? Are there other ingredients you can add to it? Is this still on your website and do you tell how to add other ingredients? Sorry so long!!! Just curious!!
Hi! Technically you can add oil but it will make the gel opaque/cloudy because it will become an emulsion.
I wouldn't use marshmallow root or slippery elm as a traditional humectant in this case.
This is a curling gel that defines curls.
You can add other water-based ingredients to this. For example, if you want to add more extracts, that's fine.
Yes, this recipe can still be accessed by members at the site.
I don't have a separate section talking about all the other possible ingredients that can be added to this recipe, but the full video, ingredient list and my notes are available here: www.curlytea.com/0823/marshmallow-root-curling-gel.html
@@curlytea thank you so much!!
How long is this going to last without preservatives. I’m on a budget can’t buy ingredients , make gels d throw out every day.
@@butterflyqueen9792 I don't know. I used a preservative. I would always suggest to use a preservative when making haircare products for use over an extended period of time.
@@curlyteaHello, just stumbled on your page today. And I like what I see. Thanks so much.
What preservatives can I use?
HOW MUCH WATER DID YOU ADD?
The recipe is about 83% water. To know anything more than that, you'll have to become a subscriber at the website.
will this crunch or flake?
I didn't notice any flaking. Crunch will depend on how much you use. But any crunchiness is all but eliminated by using an oil during take down or applying a little oil after it has dried.
How does it smell
Without fragrance, it smells like fenugreek seed which has a light almost maple syrup scent. It's not overpowering and dissipates almost immediately
Can u add a butter to it
Well, this recipe doesn't have a traditional emulsifier. If you add a butter, it may look like it's mixed, but it could separate over time. You can try to melt an emulsifier into your butter 1st, then mix the two together with a stick blender to see what happens.
Use some sort of preservative when mixing butters or oils with anything water based

Honey thanks for sharing ♥️ what’s shelf life of this ?
You'll have to do sufficient antimicrobial testing for an official shelf-life time frame. I usually use this in a little over a month and in that time I don't notice any problems. Now when I make this, I add an antimicrobial to the recipe called Antimicro Root Blend : www.makingcosmetics.com/PRV-AMROTBL-01.html?lang=default
If you're also concerned about shelf life, you can switch out the preservative I used for liquid germall plus or one of the really heavy hitters.
@@curlytea thank you so much, I would like to make a big bath
Fenugreek smells like maple syrup.
Elita Ali until it’s left out too long turns to moth balls 🤢🤮
Is this ph balance
The pH should be somewhere between 4-5.5 for optimal effect. pH balance is 7 (I think), but curly hair in particular seems to like slightly acidic ingredients (pH 4 - 5.5) from my understanding.
will it make your hair hard ?
It gives my 4b curls nice hold. If you use too much, there's a possibility it could be too hard.
