Ingredients:
– 1/4 cup flaxseeds
– 2 cups water

Instructions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine the flaxseeds and water.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
4. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl to remove the flaxseeds and collect the gel.
5. Let the gel cool completely before transferring it to a clean container for storage.

Application:
– Apply a small amount of the natural hair gel to damp or dry hair, focusing on the areas where you need hold or definition.
– Style your hair as desired.
– Allow the gel to air dry or use a diffuser for a faster dry time.

Benefits:
– Flaxseed gel is a natural and lightweight alternative to commercial hair gels that may contain harsh chemicals.
– It provides gentle hold and helps define curls without leaving a sticky residue.
– Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins that can nourish and strengthen the hair.

Note:
– Store the natural hair gel in the refrigerator and use within a week to prevent spoilage.
– Experiment with adding essential oils or aloe vera gel for additional benefits and a pleasant scent.
