Once the flax seeds cools, you can mix it with the aloe vera, to save time and you can keep it in the fridge for whatever you want to use it. Also next time boil the seeds with some cloves. And strain it like normal. The cloves is a extra power house for the hair.
Wow, neat tips! Thank you!
Or boil it in rose water!
@@json9368 You have all the tips! Love it. Thanks :)
Yes cloves does wonders for your hair!
Cloves are a natural preservative so you can store your diys for longer
Sooooooo all these years I have been buying hair gel an I could have boiled flax seeds..omg I love TH-cam...saving me money
😭😂
Yes, girl! I just wish it lasted longer, BUT it is all-natural, healthy, and chemical-free! 🙌🏿
@@jamilania9230 how long did it last?
It last 3 days when stored in the fridge
@@abbymit5126 mine last between fresh hair washing, 7 to 10 days in fridge.
I've been using flaxseed as a gel for many years including on all my children and I can't stress the benefits of this little beautiful seeds. My kids hair wan't stop growing. Its amazing..
Love that!
Can you share your recipe or how you use it on your children's hair? And what oils you find that works best with this when left in as a leave in conditioner/gel. Please and thank you
Does it have residues when it dries out like guar gum or xanthan gum?
@@Curious_gen Hey! Check out this video for the recipe in the description box: th-cam.com/video/dMd8448Q_dE/w-d-xo.html
Jojoba would probably be good. Thanks!
@@crepusco9821 I remember it leaving a little bit of a residue after a few days, i believe.
I realize most persons wait until the seeds cool before straining. However its best once you boil it you can strain it hot. It strains out better tgat way. You just let it cool and it will thinken up. When you boil flaxseed at times it doesn't seem to be thickning up after 15 min to 20 min but after straining hot as mentioned and then cooling it you'll see it. That how i do it works. Too much work to cool it and the try strain. It slips through strainer when hot.
You're right!
I made soooooo much of this reboiling the seeds plus i strained it while it was hot it makes it easier
So smart!
Thank you for this tip. ❤
Hair looks Beautiful!Flaxseed tutorial was very informative. Loved the whole video. Thank You! One Love 💕
You've now convinced me to buy some flaxseeds and make this gel! Your hair had sooooo much shine and definition😫girl your hair looks bomb💕
Coco Laní Thank you. 😊 and Yes! Try it! I finally mastered how to make the gel too. I’ll have the video and details up tomorrow!
your hair is so healthy and curly, thanks for reminding me about flax seed and how great it works on natural hair.
Thank you! Yes, flaxseed gel is something nice on natural hair. 😍
The final look is so pretty! 💕
Adesuwa Obaizamomwan Thank you! 🤗💕
I boil my flaxseeds in the stocking so it’s less messy 💕
Shayla Lue that’s interesting! Never thought about going that. Thanks for sharing!
If it doesn't melt the stocking it's so worth trying!!
How?
This sounds so great. Am gonna try.
Interesting will try boiling it in the stocking thank you :)
I saw this Flaxseed thing over the weekend and got shocked.
Here in Kenya I bought 100g at 0.75 dollars, divided the portion into two and now I have almost 300ml of the gel. I can't wait to try and show this powerful ingredient!
Thanks for showing us how to apply it 😍😍😍
Hey gal flax seed ni gani
For those in Kenya, did the flax seed gel work?
Where did you buy the gel? Am in Kenya
@@doreenwanja8066 I saw in Naivas and you can also try jumia
The gel is watery when hot but it thickens as it cools....so you don't have to boil it as much....it would've made way more than you had
Thank you
*The perfect curl definition* 😍
Your hair is literally AMAZING 💛 thanks for the video
th-cam.com/video/TMMKpn9gtVw/w-d-xo.html
I love how your hair came out. I guess nature is the way to go. Flaxseed is way better than the regular gel they sell. With Flaxseeds you don’t have to worry about chemicals.
Thank you. This is very informative. One of the best videos on flaxseed gel on TH-cam.
Love your curls...it's beautiful and springy. I have loose curls and its sometimes frizzy. Gonna try flaxseed gel recipe shared by you. Thanks much for sharing. ❤
I love how free it flows !
Your hair even before applying is sooo pretty! So much shine
th-cam.com/video/TMMKpn9gtVw/w-d-xo.html
For real tho!
I love your hair! Looks suuuper healty! 💯
❤ your transparency I had some of the same issues with getting the flaxseed to make enough. Your hair turned out really elegant. I'm thinking i can rock an up do similar to your slicked down ponytail. Thanks!
Jamila your hair looks great! Thank You for reminding me of flaxseed jel 's usage! I am going to make some Flaxseed Gel tommorow.
Thank you so much. Enjoy the gel! ❤️🤗
I LOVE FLAX GEL!! THAT IS ALL I USE! my curls love this! I also add rosemary from my garden and mint to stimulate my hair follicles. Boil it all together and beautiful curls you will have!!!
Wonderful on your skin too!
Don't you wash it off?
@@natyfeith3312 nope, my curls love flax gel.
Thanks for the suggestion. 🙏🏽
Wow thanks for sharing this powerful remedy I will definitely try this out ,my hair is still short but I will curl it with flaxseed gel definitely 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
That low bun looks so beautiful on you!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️
Thank you!! 😊❤️
One word..... WOW!!!!!
I am truly moved by this video. This is the best one I've seen. Gonna hunt down dem seeds
😂 Yes! Hunt those seeds down! I really like homemade flaxseed gel. I just wish it lasted longer.
th-cam.com/video/TMMKpn9gtVw/w-d-xo.html
I haven't made any yet but I got some flaxseeds,so, gonna check it out , thanks for your info, you have some beautiful hair too btw
Thanks a ton! Prayerfully, my daughters-in-law and granddaughters will use this great info. God blessings to you.
I don’t know much about the gel thingy but I read you can use 1/4 cup of the seeds and 3 cups of water and when it begins to foam, you take it off the stove while it’s watery. After it cools, it gets thick and slimy.
th-cam.com/video/TMMKpn9gtVw/w-d-xo.html
Yes! i agree
Your results are beautiful! I used to do flaxseed gel but I used to apply it to wet hair and so it would get very messy. I have a sensitive scalp and most gel I used causes itching after a couple of days. I think I'm going to try flaxseed gel again using this method
Hope it works for you. Be sure to take it off of the stove while it's still watery. It will thicken as it cools ;)
Your hair is beautiful ❤️
Beautiful as usual. Love watching your videos. My hair looks similar. Thanks for sharing
Love this tutorial. I am about to go curly for 3 months straight .no heat I am excited.and I want to get to a place where I only straighten it for part of the winter.with a silk head wrap
GIRLLLLLLL thank you so much for doing a video of your FIRST time preparing & trying flaxseed gel! I have brought all of what I need and am looking forward to my daughter and I going on our hair growth journey 🥰
Good luck!!🤗
Your hair looks amazing
Mony E Thank you! 😊 That gel came out pretty nice.
It’s the curl pattern for me 😍
It also works if it's a bit watery. I generally get just enough for one application with 1c of water and 2tbs of flaxseeds. It stinks after awhile so I don't make to much at once 😅
You can always freeze the gel in an ice cube tray and pop out a cube and defrost overnight as needed. That's the easiest way to preserve flaxseed gel
Love it!! And you're SO beautiful
Xiomara Gamez THANK YOU! 💕
th-cam.com/video/TMMKpn9gtVw/w-d-xo.html
Your hair looks great thanks for the video
The flax seed will thicken naturally after a short boil. And it’s easier to strain on its thinner state. All the best to you - great video.
You’re correct! Thanks!
Your hair is beautiful!!!!!
Heey ur flaxseed gel turned out fine, that's what makes your video stand out being different from the crowd ❤
your hair turned out beautiful hun 😍 curls are poppin
I use 1/4 cup Flaxseed to 2 cups water and get the consistency I want in about 10 minutes. I use a mesh strainer immediately after boiling then let the gel cool in a container that can handle heat.. I have heard of some people buying a strainer that fits over the pot then boil the seeds in the strainer.
tks Ann Dee. God Bless
Thank you Ann I’m purchasing the flaxseeds now and will be using your formula. I wasn’t quite sure how much water to use.
I tried this and it gives me the best definition it’s absolutely way better than the other gels I’ve tried.
After u use the flaxseed, do u wash it?
Meivia Henrietta no I use it as a wash and go.
ቄ
Simply stunning
Omg i love it❤ u are beautiful
Your hair is beautiful now. Great video.
Thank you! 😊
Your hair is beautiful!!
Leslie Arellano Thank you!
Hi Jamila. A few tips...
Try straining the flakseed gel whilst still hot and you get more gel out of it and less messy.
Next tip, you can try applying flakseed gel on your hair next time without any cream first, it still gives you that beautiful shine and obedient curls.
Michelle.❤
I think you are my hair twin, My hair is super curly with the same size curls.
Please keep growing your hair...its so beautiful
Stunning
Beautiful!
🔥 girl you go girl I don't know how to get your products but I like it👄💞☺
You let it cool after few minutes of pouring the flaxseed into the boiling water. Then set it aside to cool. As it cools off, the watery consistency of flaxseed begins to thicken up. Then you pour into a tight sieve or stocking to squeeze out more of the gel.
Thanks
Hey beautiful this style looks lovely on you. I'm gonna have to make some gel to. Do you store it in the fridge how many days does it last.
Waoooooo... Thanks for sharing beautiful lady. Thanks to my sister who made me know about this video
Thanks for sharing this wonderful posting. 100%
I don’t know if anyone mentioned in the comments yet. I don’t go through the comments.
You messed up by over cooking it. It was fine at first before you let it dry and add more water. It normal for it to look watery while is hot, once it cools down it gets to the texture that you need.
I love your hair girl 😍
I like that you show your trial and error
Thanks!
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS
Such beautiful hair😍
Thank you!
Hi, thanks for this vid! I had a similar experience first time I made flaxseed gel in that it came out much darker than I expected from the vids I'd seen previously. Turns out there's 2 types of flaxseeds, brown and golden... guess which ones I'd been using! Also, if you use the golden ones and add hibiscus it's comes out a lovely pink colour, unless you're heavy handed like me, in which case it comes out properly RED...
Nixf01 thanks for the info and tips! I perfected my flaxseed gel in a video after this 👌🏿
You are doing it in such a neat way. I did it with too much flax seeds and it is too thick I'll add some water.
Most IMPORTANT question: How long did the curls stay in?
Hi it came out beautiful
Too Cute!!!🦋🦋🦋
Thank you! 🤗
Never heard of this your hair looks beautiful thank you for sharing . Question do need to do this daily? How long did it last?
I actually think that’s how the brand/ type (arrowhead mill) of flaxseed is _dark... I made a video on it during the week and it came out the same
Nice video. Can I use this gel on treated hair? Like relaxed hair
Waooh I love it I will go to try it for my self how can I make those flax seed and stay for a long time
Good job!!!
I wonder why you didn’t wear your hair loose/down? It looked so pretty! Also the ponytail with the front hair out was a look!
Brit JJ I just didn’t feel like it. Thank you! ❤️
Love it 😁😍🤗
Your hair is gorgeous 😍!!
Angel Harmony Thanks! 😊
I don’t use gel on my hair. My mom said that she used to use flaxseed gel for her hair and I guess imma try it out.
luliana Andom you should!
your profile picture tho ❤️
@@semhalsolomon7805 Oh thanks. Orthodox tewahedo?
Your hair is so pretty. I would like to try those hair products you were showing but I couldn't make out the name you were saying and the light wouldn't let you see it good. I love anything lemongrass :)
Thank you! and sorry about that. I'll keep that in mind in the future! Thanks for watching 😊
I just made mines today n yes it didn't thicken up while cooking.. When it cooled it got thick.. I placed in jar n then used.
When you use this how long can u wash your hair! Or you use as gel.
4c to 3b no I'm just Kidding! Your hairs beautiful miss.😘
Thank you, lady! 😘
not even 3b more 4b but yea
Did your hair have a white residue on your hair the next day when it was all dry?
Flax seed gel worked awesome on my hair the hold was softer than gel and a small amount of flaxseed went along way.
Hay, where do I keep this stored? Can I just leave it out? Or it has to be in a certain room temperature?
Wow,instead of buying eco and any other gel I going to use this for school😜😜
Pls how long can the flaxed seed last without been refrigerated.does it spoil fast after preparation.how can someone preserve it after preparation for use.
It's true my hair love it❤
Beautiful Hair Face!!! Fabulous Queen!!! Thanks
Your facial expressions when applying 🤣🤣🤣 that's my reaction too
You right 😅😅
Does it leave residue?
Where can I find flax seed gel, & the lemon grass oil that u used?
After applying t to the har when can it be washed
Hi I watched your process of making the flax seed gel. I think you’re supposed to simmer and after you let it cool it will thicken
Do you have to wash it off ,after the application.
Can I use aloe vera instead of water?
Thank you!
Why cream of hair moisturiser did you use pls
Me to sis two time but my butter is thick and clean flex seed is the bomb
Actually it's better to boil until slightly thick. It can be poured into a metal strainer easily. Thick is not good as the cooling down process makes it thicker. Strain while hot and it works perfectly. It will continue to thicken In the container. No need to use cloth strainer. What a mess that can be!!!
Yes! I agree. I noticed that later down the line. Thank you for the helpful tips! 😊❤️
@@jamilania9230 you're very welcome on both comments 😊
Good job❣️👍🏽👍🏽
Another great recipe for flaxseed gel is mixing it with Wetline or EcoStyler gel. You can add whatever oil you wish. Mixing them together makes a nice custard. It gives the best of both worlds between Flaxseed and Wetline. Any gel would probably work too:)
