Anti-frizz flaxseed-based hair gel

by

Have you tried everything to discipline your hair or stimulate its growth, but nothing really seems to work? What if the solution wasn’t in an overpriced bottle, but in your kitchen cupboard? Two surprisingly effective ingredients – flaxseed and okra – can be made into ultra-nourishing homemade hair gels. Your hair will love the change.

Flaxseed gel: your ally for hair growth and shine

Who hasn’t dreamed of long, healthy hair… without waiting months? Flaxseed gel is a very effective natural treatment to stimulate growth, strengthen the hair fiber and provide a nice dose of shine. Easy to prepare, it only takes a few minutes and very few ingredients.

Its essential benefits:

This gel penetrates to the roots to nourish the scalp and activate growth. Rich in omega-3, it soothes sensitive scalps, balances sebum production and prevents breakage. And thanks to the vitamin E it contains, your hair gains elasticity and shine while delaying the appearance of grey hair.

Minute recipe to try tonight:

  • In a saucepan, pour 250 ml of water and 2 tablespoons of whole flaxseed.
  • Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring gently until the mixture becomes gelatinous.
  • Let cool and then strain through a fine sieve.
  • For a more sensorial version, add 1 teaspoon of aloe vera gel and a few drops of essential oil (lavender or rosemary, for example).
  • Apply directly to the scalp, massaging gently.

Okra gel: the perfect hydration for curls

If you have textured, frizzy or frizzy hair, okra could well become your new ally. This vegetable, often used in cooking, transforms into a very moisturizing hair gel, perfect for defining curls, deeply moisturizing and limiting frizz.
