How to make Flaxseed Gel for your Hair

7adyinred Flaxseed Gel


Many of you have been wondering, how I make my flaxseed gel. This post I decided to give you directions on how to make flaxseed gel. First these measurements are guesses based on what I wanted. You should experiment for yourself to see what works and what doesn’t. If you want a gel that has more hold use less water and more flaxseeds, if you want less hold use more water and less flaxseeds.

Supplies
Blender/ Egg beater
Bowl
Small Pot
Spoon
Stocking
Rubber gloves
Heat protective gloves (if you have them)
Cooking tongs

Ingredients
½ cup of flaxseed
2 cups of water
1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel (optional)
1 tablespoon of olive oil (optional)
Drops of essential oils (optional)

Step 1
Put the water and flaxseeds on a medium to high flame. Make sure you stir every few minutes.

Step 2
While you wait on the mixture prepare the next step. Place the stocking over the mouth of the jar and put your rubber gloves/ heat protective gloves on.

Step 3
Wait until the consistency of the mixture is a little thicker and sticky. When it is to your desired consistency turn the flame off and pour the mixture into the stocking cap that is over the jar.

Step 4
Take the tongs and start from the top of the stocking and push to the bottom to drain the mixture into your desired container. Keep on doing this with the rest of the mixture.

Step 5
Mix your olive oil, aloe vera gel and desired oil essentials with a blender or egg beater into the flaxseed gel.

There you have it homemade flaxseed gel. It may take a few tries to get your desired effect but keep trying. What other recipes would you like to see on here? Please leave a comment or question below.

Long Hair and Prosper,
