I wonder if you will see this, but, my question is, can you use and leave flaxseed gel in your hair every day or do you have to wash it out daily?

@mzkk73 2 жыл бұрын

Made some Monday. Made it thinner to avoid flakes and it worked. I’ve never used this gel without flaking. Infused it while boiling with Amla and Hibiscus. Added Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Lavender and Rosemary EO’s to it once it cooled. It’s perfect!

In 5:15 , you said that you use an oil to get rid of the gel. Which oil do you use. And can we use coconut oil to remove the gel? And if we're removing the gel then why we apply at the first place??

@ciannacoleman5125 3 ай бұрын

Coconut oil is a VERY heavy oil, I have used it for a mask/treatment but unless you have super course hair please don’t use it as a general hair oil. Personally I really love using jojoba oil with some rosehip oil as a general purpose hair oil as it is light and close to skin oils

I made some gel the other day but my hair gets frizzy when I use the diffuser. I can't air dry where I leave is way to cold for that. Can you please help me out? Thanks!

@LotusFlowerLife 2 жыл бұрын

Hi love, there are two ways I dry my curls when air drying isn't an option: 1. Diffuse using the hovering method ➡️ bit.ly/3zy3Uqo 2. Dry using my hooded dryer ➡️ amzn.to/3ENTcwQ the second option will cause zero frizz without much effort while the first option requires using a certain technique to get the results you want.

White cast on hair after drying what to do after that

@LotusFlowerLife 2 жыл бұрын

Just use a hair oil to scrunch out the gel cast and apply it directly to the white areas. Having a white cast also means you didn't apply enough leave in conditioner before using the gel, next time use more leave in.
