DIY Tip: Especially for curly girls, but for anyone who wants to use a light to medium hold gel. <br><br>Option 1: Aloe vera gel (as pure as possible) with a little flaxseed oil in a pump bottle (about 9 parts gel and 1 part oil) and you have a delicious natural gel that restrains fluff and has an easy to scrunch cast. <br><br> Option 2: Buy flax seeds (raw) in a pot of plenty of water and bring it to a boil. Keep cooking until a firm gel-like substance forms that resembling snot. Cook it for a little while and then let it cool down a little until you can touch it with your hands. Have a jar and old tights. Spoon the gel and seed mixture into the tights little by little and squeeze it out into the jar. When you're done, you'll have delicious pure flaxseed gel. <br><br> Flaxseed is full of Omega-3 fatty acids that are particularly good for your hair. It stimulates hair growth by taking care of your follicles and hair shaft and improving the elasticity of your hair, which reduces hair breakage. You can also find it on packaging as “flaxseed” or “linseed”. Aloe vera contains enzymes that help your hair and is simply a wonderful miracle cure for your whole body. And of course these are both gels Curly Girl or CG approved!
