Just a couple hints for the other newbies out there:: It started to boil after about one minute on HIGH, and foam over almost immediately. I turned the heat to MEDIUM and it continued to boil nicely and only took about five minutes to be at what I thought to be the right consistency.

Just made my second batch using same seeds from first time and same stocking. This is about as economical as it gets. Woot woot. Thx Whitney!

Hi how did you preserve the first set after boiling

Flax seed gel is a great substitute for eggs when you're cooking and baking too. I've made cookies, cakes, soups, used it as thickener for gravy, plus all sorts of stuff with it. I even make an imitation heavy cream with it by boiling the flax seeds in almond or coconut milk. You can do all the same things with chia seeds too.

What a great idea! Care to share your ratios? :)

FYI... A wire strainer works perfectly! No fuss whatsoever. I just sit a wire strainer over a large glass measuring cup and pour the hot liquid in there. Then move the seeds around in the strainer with a spatula and everything comes out just fine. Super quick and easy.

A friend of mine used chia seeds. Not sure if they have the same properties, but the consistency was the same. After seeing these gels, I have no clue why I ever used store bought styling gels (or store bought anything after watching your homemade/DIY vids). You learn something new everyday. Thanks chica! ^_^

I love this recipe!! But i wanted something that added a little scent so i substituted 1/2 a cup of the water for rose water. It smells amazing!!

omg this stuff is the bomb! i just made mine adding wheat germ oil (ceramides), sunflower oil (to soften coarse strands), jojoba oil (emoilents), my oil blend from my beautician, rosemary ess. oil, and lavender ess. oil. I just put it on a small section of my hair (half relaxed, half natural) and omg! My hair is actually moisturized and it held a curl in under 5 minutes with a flexirod. I'm usually lazy, and I never do DIY hair stuff, but naptural's hair is gorgeous so I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. If you're hesitant on trying this and your hair is dry, coarse and hard to moisturize like mine, definitely try this. Thanks *****! ***UPDATE*** In the recent flaxseed gel batch I made I pretty much eliminated all the oils in the recipe and just used ylang ylang essential and a little bit of rosemary essential oil just for scent and to preserve it. Without the extra oils, the gel had a much stronger hold and my hair wasn't crunchy the next day.

I'm soooo impressed w/this gel! Girl,thank you!!! I boiled my seeds w/lavender, rose & hibiscus. I added tea tree oil, eucalyptus & lemongrass e.o, & a little olive blossom f.o. For extra moisture, I mixed in some of my whipped shea butter hair & body butter. My hair is loving it, & I think this is 1 of the best things since sliced bread!!!

I've been with naptural85 for five years and her vids never get old... especially when I forget my routine best practices. Thanks 😊

Thanks for the recipe! You can actually use the knee high and tie a knot to use it like cheese cloth to just put the flax seeds inside and place it directly into the water to avoid the whole straining process.

It's so defined, fluffy, and soft. I don't think I'll ever use anything else. THANK YOU!!!

Best natural hair recipe ever! I've tried it so many times and my hair's natural state is puffy and frizzy. What this does it calm all that down and adds a shine to it.

Just had to revisit this as I’ve not made this in a while. Such good quality info. You’re the best Whitney. Thank you

I've been natural for a little over a month now , and I just made this tonight! It was sooo easy and came out wonderful. I used a wave cap though and it made it super easy to get it out I was at step three for squeezing in less than a minute. I added rosemary, lavender, emu oil, jojoba and sweet almond oil. It made my curls pop!!!! Thank you so much for being a wonderful help .

Read about this for weeks (a few months, now) when deciding and beginning my transition to natural hair (aka, stopped relaxing). Just tried it yesterday. WOW! It gives me the same results as Shea Moisture's Curl Souffle. Wonderful!

Love love love this girl! She shares technics and is so helpful not to mention she is beautiful and her hair is so healthy! Thanks for teaching us the naptural way!

Thank you a million times; I'm going to purchase the flaxseeds. Shocked at the simplicity of the recipe and its effectiveness as well. Keep up the good work.

Your tutorials are simply amazing. Thank you so much for sharing, your awesome!!!👍👍👍

Hi Napural :-) Gd clip, as always. Right to the point. NO unnecessary earful! Keep it up, girl♥

Hi! Made the gel last week and used it last night as my mid-week styling aide. Amazing results! Hair is baby soft, no residue, big curls and my pattern is beautiful. The appearance and texture did not bother me like I thought it would. Definitely will continue to use it....Thanks Naptural85!

I tried this 2 days ago and am so grateful for this video and you Naptural85! I saw your latest video about using flaxseed gel, searched and found this video which shows you how to make it. I will keep this in my repertoire forever! We sure have come a long way baby!

Lovely tutorial! I love the positive vibes from your videos :). Really appreciate your hard work.

Finally found something that can save my hair. When it’s natural (curly), it’s so dry from heat styling, and the ends are like frayed bristles. Thank you!! 😭

Love this beyond words and it holds my hair so well! It feels AMAZING putting this in my hair! Thanks girl!

Ok. So I made this flaxseed gel and I'm sooooo glad I did!!! My hair was soft, shiny, and smelled great! It made my wedding updo hairstyle look amazing!!! I LOVE your channel!!! ♥♥♥

I made it a few days ago and my hair loves it!!! I only added the rosemary and lavender oil, but also used tea tree oil. Also used shea butter in my hair while in the shower.

I bought some whole flax seeds at TJ Maxx yesterday and made my first batch of hair gel this morning, which I proceeded to use an hour later with my wash & go (I could not wait). So far so good. Definitely NOT drying. I used different oils/essential oils in mine since I didn't have what you suggested in the video. Thanks for the recipe/demo!

I've been toying with doing this for awhile now. After watching this video I went right down to my local Mom's Organic Market and got 1lb of whole flax seeds for $2.00 (lots of gel for sure) made my first batch that day- AWESOME!! My old twist gel/cream cost around $22, never going back!

So, I know I'm not the only one who's watched this video a hundred times, PERPLEXED over wanting to try this recipe but extremely low on funds or maybe unable to get to a place that sells whole flax seeds. During one of many health kick months awhile back, I purchased some flax seed MEAL to add to my smoothies. Back to the dilemma, every internet source I'd found said gel from meal couldn't be done.....Well, I've SOLVED that problem and you're gonna smack yourself in the forehead in just a second. **Drum roll please? **.....#RepurposedTeaBags :-) #IWantPatentedRights lol...I just carefully undid the tea bags, refilled it with flax seed meal a tsp at a time and fastened it with a small safety pin. I used 4 bags full in maybe 2 cups of water, boiled them and stirred occasionally.I also added 2tsp of honey, a few drops of tea tree lavender EO, a glob of Aloe Vera GEL and a couple squirts of Vitamin E. It does take a little longer than 10 min...I averaged 30 per batch, but it saved me a few coins when i needed them...:-) Hope I've helped someone! Be blessed naturals! !

I agree with her^ about checking it out first. but there are so many things that can contribute to hair loss. It could be your diet, stress levels, products your using or your regimen, dehydration, or an actual medical problem that causes premature hair loss. I suggest drinking a lot of water every day, preferably how many lbs you weigh but in ounces. Also I suggest Jamaican black castor oil for your hair loss. It can be a bit thick though so I would dilute it or only use it at night if your hair is thin. By dilute I mean with a lighter oil like coconut oil or argan oil OR add a little to your conditioner. Also try pairing this with hair, skin, nails. And try eating healthy because you are what you eat. If your hair is thin I still think this would work for you. If not try something light and not too heavy because it doesn't sound like you need much. Allllso lol I recommend using a volumizing shampoo and conditioner to make your hair appear thicker and make it easier to hold a curl. I'd do my flexi's at night and use a very light holding spray in the morning before taking them out. WHEW sorry for the book but I hope this helps love :)
