This treatment is rich in mucilage—a plant-based, gel-like substance found in marshmallow root, flaxseed, fenugreek, and oats. Mucilage creates a high level of slip, which helps hair strands glide past each other, reducing friction and making detangling easier.
When applied with heat, the outer layer of the hair (the cuticle) gently lifts, allowing moisture and nutrients to penetrate more effectively. This softens the hair and increases flexibility, which can reduce breakage during combing or styling.
Ingredients like oat and flaxseed also form a light, conditioning film on the surface of the hair. This helps retain moisture and smooths the cuticle, supporting shine and manageability without heavy buildup. The result is hydrated, softened hair that’s easier to detangle and less prone to stress from manipulation.

I have been wearing my natural hair for about 7 years. I used to really struggle with my hair and at one point I thought maybe I was the problem. Maybe I just didn't have the kind of hair that was considered beautiful. But then I started creating diy hair conditioners, creams and tea rinses and my hair did a complete 180. I hope I can help any other naturals out there.
