Homemade Flaxseed Gel
Ingredients: ¼ cup of flaxseeds (2) cups of water (1) tbsp.
organic coconut oil
Since becoming a natural, my sister Ivory does NOT use gel
at all in her type #4C hair; her coils are extremely kinky. Her hair is really thick
and dense. I mean, it feels like… I can’t
even describe it- wool, maybe (smile). She tends to wear wash n go’s on a
regular. Without using any gel. She just uses tons of conditioner. Her curl
pattern is awesome, and her #shrinkage is definitely REAL! She decided to make
some flaxseed gel. She said she’s heard some good things about it and since it’s
a #natural alternative to using regular gel she would give it a try. I have
added some pictures of her results before and after using the gel. She said it
was Love at first use…
I personally don’t do wash n go’s. I just don’t like the
thought of all that gel in my hair. But I just might have to whip up a batch of
my own flaxseed gel and give it a try.
Let me know if any of you have ever tried it. What is your
opinion? How were your results? I’d love to hear some of your stories.
