Edge Control

Our STEAMtastic Student-Nelly wanted to learn how to make “edge control.” Watch and learn the basics of making hair gel and edge control.
Measurement are below:
1 cup of Distilled Water
1/4 cup Flaxseed Gel
1/4 cup Castor Oil
1/8 cup Raw Honey
1/8 cup Glycerin
1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum
1.25g of phenonip preservative
10-20 Drops Fragrance (optional)
Jar for storage
Hand Whisk or Immersion Blender.
To get rid of clumps of Xanthan gum, it is better to use a whisk.

Mix your Xanthan gum with glycerin before you add it to your flaxseed gel for no clumps.

Thank you for this information

As I was watching I said the same thing .. good eye

[@krenee984]

This was such a nice project. It would be nice to be able to adapt it for a high school science lab lesson because you could teach many lessons from it such as an introduction to the scientific method, weighing etiquette, properties of mixtures, and a host of other things with this one simple project. However because there are no measurements provided for a lot of the ingredients like the xanthan gum, it is impossible without a lot more trial and error than many a teacher has time for. I would like to see more content that science teachers can adapt to their classrooms...

[@Beautifulchoco34]

Hello… you mentioned phenylnip? But it was not on your list of ingredients

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

It is listed under ingredients. Thank you.

[@reginaeiland9358]

How much of the preservative? I don't see that in the recipe

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

1.25g based on the amount used in the video

[@happinessjourney4240]

How do you keep the xanthan gum from clumping?

[@yvexankei]

mix the xanthan gum in the glycerin first

[@thewedgefamily32]

Can you provide a list of ingredients and measurements, please and thank you.

[@happinessjourney4240]

What is the measurements for the flaxseeds?

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

Hi, thanks for watching. The measurement for the flaxseeds are in the description.

[@golden3368]

Hi, great video! The amount of Phenol is not in the description box -- how much did you use?

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

We used 1-2 milliliter of phenonip.

[@TriniTsunami]

I’m watching this like, 🤔 I know this girl from the Ridge. How is she the same age as me???? You don’t age.

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

Lol. Thank you

[@tatyanna_barr]

Are those natural preservatives? Can they work for an hair product? Is it considered organic, how long does it last?

[@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153]

Which item(s) are you referring to as a natural preservative? Phenonip is the only preservative in the video. We are not sure if it can work for any hair product because we are not a licensed chemically tested company, nor have we tested different types of hairs.
Based on research most organic products last 2-3 weeks without added preservative.
We hope this was helpful. See you soon🙂

[@tatyanna_barr]

@@s.e.e.kfoundationinc.-maki8153 it does, thank you.

[@sbutler4033]
