DIY Natural Curl Enhancing Detangler | Caribbean Beauty Secret | UnivHair Soleil

Hi everyone ! In today's video I'm going to show you how to make a natural curl enhancing detangler using one ingredient : Raquette Gel.

In Guadeloupe, we use Raquette mucilage to shampoo and condition our hair. In this video, I wanted to test it out as a leave-in curl enhancing detangler.

Raquette belongs to the genus Opuntia of the Cactaceae (cactus) family which is comprised of almost 300 species. It can be found in North and South America, the Caribbean, Africa, Australia and the Mediterranean.
Raquette mucilage has this texture because it's a mixture of more than 50 complex polysaccharides including arabinose, galactose, rhamnose, xylose and galacturonic acid.
Raquette can also be eaten as a vegetable and cactus juice can be made from it. It's a great source of dietary fibers, potassium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, chromium and antioxidants such as polyphenols and vitamin C.
Be careful of the small spines ! You have to wear thick gloves and cut all of them !
