@@la4894 I use a standard metal strainer and funnel to make it even easier but u don’t necessarily need a funnel. But yea just pour it right through after and don’t wait for it to cool and thicken. Hope that helps! 🤓
I made the gel and I’m so grateful for this recipe! The nut bag didn’t work for me- nothing came out no matter how hard I squeezed the bag. I used cheesecloth. 👍Thanks again!
Holy Crap! I’m retwisting my locs & wanna to DIY my oil game. I came across this video & made the oils recipe. GURRRRRRRL….I put just a few drops on one side & OMG I feel my hair tickling. I feel the growth. I will come back in a month to give more. This is Grand girl. Omg Thank You.
I started making the flaxseed gel just recently and I love how defined it made my curls even though it gave me a bit of a gel cast, I use my oil afterwards and I loved it ever since 😊
You uploaded this at the perfect time bc I was looking into making some flax seed gel for my hair as well! Keep us updated on how long it lasts on the counter pls!! ❤️
I make a similar oil but i added coconut in place of avocado oil. I add pumpkin seed oil blocks dht production and steep feenugreek seeds in the carrier oils. Then when i use this oil blend ill mix in Aloe for my angry scalp and to thin it out some. Thankyou
I love a great DIY. The store products are exposed to anyone that wants to open them and do whatever to them and then you buy it not knowing it has been tampered with. I would rather make my own for safety reasons.
Absolutely loooove flaxseed gel! I will never buy store gel again! Quick tip! You can pour your gel while it’s hot out of the pot and it will still thicken as it cools. Use left over gel from seeds on your face for a beautiful mask ❤️
I am anxious to try your oil concoction & flax seed DIY gel on my short curly hair. I want healthy curls. I believe in your DIY. I am still loving and using the Dermae radiant facial oil that you created! You've come a long way. Proud of you and Manny too!
I've been waiting for an updated magic potion oil blend!✨✨ I'm so excited and forever grateful, you're amazing. Sending love and positive energy to you and your lovely family!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
I'm def gonna try this oil blend! I luv flax gel... I just don't always feel like making it. I never add essential oils & I keep it in the fridge for 2-3wks...if I don't run out 1st.
I stoped using flaxseed gel because of all the work you gave to put in, but a couple of months back, I ran into this video again and made the flaxseed gel. I forgot how much my hair LOVES IT!!!I totally forgot how good my hair looks with this. So! I now only make flaxseed gel once in the 2 or 3 months and I make A LOT. What I do is: I make a bunch of flaxseed gel and put it in an ice cube trays and freeze it in. I just take out the right amount of gel the night before so it can melt. Voila! It works wonders to freeze it✨
If you guys want to add extra things to the oil you can add marshmallow root to the water and flaxseed and use aloe Vera juice instead of water, also glycerine, and even carbomer( thickener) then preservative like germaben ll to preserve for months
I will be trying both your flaxseed gel and growth oil mixture. Give me a few weeks with this and I will let you know the results. I color treat and relax my hair every 3 to 4 weeks. I shampoo and condition my hair once every week.
Alba, honestamente desde que dejaste de hacer videos dejer de ver videos de como hacerse el pelo, creo que eres la musa de las musas, porque eres tan autentica y honesta por eso siempre te mantienes en el corazon de esta comunidad de cabello rizo natural! mirar otros videos simplemente no es lo mismo no es nuestra alba, i love you!!!
I have to try this!! I need more growth to get my hair to be more “full”. I will join this challenge and I hope I can see some improvements. Someone literally asked if I was sick after seeing how much hair falls out lol
6-7 oils seems a bit much. More power to you. Go girl. How can one really decipher which oil has the most impact. However, I too make my flax seed gel, adding oil when done. Thank you.
Thank you i love your old hair grow oil i will definitely try this one. I will like to ask do you still do the skin oil i lost that one you had that one was good my husband use it when he left Beer growUse the every single day
Thank you for sharing Alba!! I've used your hair oil in the past and I loved it, will be using it again!! I can't wait to try your flaxseed gel and love lavender!!💖🙏🏼🙏🏼
I make a similar oil but I have not used it before shampooing I always use it afterwards and during the week when refreshing my curls so will definitely try this method,love flaxseed gel too xx
Amazing DIY video, Alba! I used to have normal porosity hair but now my hair is high porosity, so will this flaxseed gel work for me still? I would love to make that hair oil!
🥰🥰🥰🥰thankss for sharing w Us siss ! I'm going through the postpartum phase of my hair now...I'm 9 months pp and your videos are helping me w pick me ups ! I'm excited to try both very soon ! 🤗💕✨
Ty hermana! I had a hair masque which was helping but it was tinting my gray this ugly blonde. The oil will be great! I'll hv to lessen the argan because it relaxes my curls but fenugreek oil yes! Gracias!
Hola Alba. Me encantan tus videos, yo cuelo mi linaza(flax seed) con un colador. Enseguida acabada de apagar, de la estufa a colar inmediatamente. Cuando se enfria se tornará espesa. Me resulta más fácil y rápido así. Trátalo verás que es mucho mejor y menos complicado. Hello Alba. I love your videos, I strain my flax seed with a strainer. Immediately after turning off, from the stove to strain immediately. When it cools it will thicken. I find it easier and faster that way. Try it and you will see that it is much better and less complicated.
I'm a huge fan of flaxseed gel I always use it and recommended. I'm going to start adding the oíl prepoo recipe to my wash days now that a dye my hair cooper
Great video so happy you uploaded the hair oil and I can't wait to make the other diy can you add vitamin e oil to use as a persevering? Also beautiful results 😍 ❤
Thanks so much! Some of the oils I used naturally contain vitamin e so like I said towards the end of the video if you have thick hair or dryer hair type you can choose to add some of the oil into the flaxseed gel but I don't know exactly how much longer it'll preserve it for.
Hi! Thanks for watching my new version :) No I don't think I would alter anything in the previous lash growth serum. For winter I especially love Raw Shea Butter like the one I featured in my latest Full Body Maintenance video. It's perfect for winter and any season really.
Castor oil. Sky orgánics (same company featured here in this video) has a small castor oil bottle made especially for eyelash and eyebrows. It’s in Walmart for about 10 dollars next to sky organics big bottle of castor oil.
If I make more than 8oz yes, but if I only make 8oz like in this video I keep it on my bathroom sink and I never have any left by day 6 so I actually don't need to refrigerate it in my case.
Nunca me e pasado. Lo usaste sin leave in o con leave in? o tarves la combinación de algún leave in que usaste no es buena mezcla con la gelatina. Algo que siempre me funciona con otras gelatinas que me a causado residuos blancos es agregar un poquito de aceite en mis manos después de aplicarme la gelatina y esto siempre evita esos residuos blancos.
Just came across your channel. First video I watched was the body butter DIY and now I'm watching this. Can't wait to actually do this and the body butter. I'm really struggling with my extra stubborn 4c hair
Sorry you're wrong. I've studied microbiology for beauty products. Water breeds bacteria very very quickly. The essential oils will not preserve it that long as there is contamination in water even after you boil it, the containers you use and the pots you use all have microbes that will contaminate the gel. PUT it in the fridge with some essential oils for NO LONGER THAN A WEEK, unless you really to risk a scalp infection.
Hi! Will definitely try this,. But question, how did your hair look the next day? Would a cream instead of a leave-in be ok? Excited for the hair oil !!! Thanks I was actually looking for the old video
Check out my Instagram photo that I posted with @Curlswithapromise standing next to me. In that photo was day 2 and my hair looked even better on the 2nd and 3rd day only using this gel!
Yes like I said on the video, I know many girls who only use the flaxseed gel without a leave in and works perfectly great. I personally only used a small amount of leave in and it still worked great. You can also air dry and still get good results.
Hey thnx for sharing your experience n knowledge with us 🤩.. Vl surely try this gel this way.. Could u mk a vdo for coarse n dry extremely coloured hair that have lost their shine n silkiness.. Stay Blessed Stay Happy 🥰😘🤗🧚♀️🦄🌈🧿
Okay not to be rude but I don't know why you need make-up you are beautiful your skin is clear why would you paint over it thank you for the recipes I'll be trying one in the near future
Strain it while hot!! Don’t let it cool!!! Soooooo much easier. Also you can reuse the seeds! I freeze them and get another use or two. 🤗🤓😀
great tip
Oh thank you for this because I hate waste
But how are you doing this while hot. It made way more sense to me too until I nearly burnt myself lol
@@la4894 I use a standard metal strainer and funnel to make it even easier but u don’t necessarily need a funnel. But yea just pour it right through after and don’t wait for it to cool and thicken. Hope that helps! 🤓
@@tajr.2650exactly! that's how I've done it for years. Less mess and efficient.
DIY flaxseed gel is the *GOAT* I will never use any other gel! Can't wait to test out your hair oil for my pre-poo 😍
A few drops of grapefruit seed extract also adds to preserving the gel...Great video
Thanks!
I made the gel and I’m so grateful for this recipe! The nut bag didn’t work for me- nothing came out no matter how hard I squeezed the bag. I used cheesecloth. 👍Thanks again!
Couldn't have uploaded this at a better time Hermosa, thank you! Happy to see you again. 😍💚
I've recently been mixing any 'good' oils I have and adding it to my hair the night before/day of shampooing too! Thanks for the flax meal tip
My favorite oils to use for my hair is avocado oil and olive oil.
Holy Crap! I’m retwisting my locs & wanna to DIY my oil game. I came across this video & made the oils recipe. GURRRRRRRL….I put just a few drops on one side & OMG I feel my hair tickling. I feel the growth.
I will come back in a month to give more. This is Grand girl. Omg Thank You.
Question tho. Can I just leave the oils in my hair instead of washing my hair right away?
The flex seed oil could go bad within one week, keeping it in the fridge. That's why I put little portions in the freezer.
I started making the flaxseed gel just recently and I love how defined it made my curls even though it gave me a bit of a gel cast, I use my oil afterwards and I loved it ever since 😊

Every time I make flaxseed gel I'm like, " Why do I buy other hair gel again? " It's awesome!
Exactly!! Same here :)
How do you prevent flakes?
I've never had flaxseed gel flake on me at all!
Stumble onto your channel! So glad to see you and daughter again. She has grown and her hair is beautiful.
I love a great DIY. The store products are exposed to anyone that wants to open them and do whatever to them and then you buy it not knowing it has been tampered with. I would rather make my own for safety reasons.

My hair is addicted to flax gel... Thanks for the tip
The flax seed lavender gel is the best hair product I have ever made!
I've been waiting for an updated magic potion oil blend!✨✨ I'm so excited and forever grateful, you're amazing. Sending love and positive energy to you and your lovely family!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
I am going to forever make both of these. That's it.😁💜 Thank you very much.
It’s two forever beneficial products you make yourself and that’s the best part :)

Would adding vegetable glycerine to the flaxseed gel help preserve it a little longer on the counter?
If you guys want to add extra things to the oil you can add marshmallow root to the water and flaxseed and use aloe Vera juice instead of water, also glycerine, and even carbomer( thickener) then preservative like germaben ll to preserve for months
Good tip! Thanks!
Waww .. do you have a link for this flaxseed with aloe vera juice recipe?
Yo. Try using a french press for the flax gel if you haven't already, life-changing!!
I will be trying both your flaxseed gel and growth oil mixture. Give me a few weeks with this and I will let you know the results. I color treat and relax my hair every 3 to 4 weeks. I shampoo and condition my hair once every week.
What leave in conditioner did you use? :)

In that extra room on the top of the oil container, I would add extra virgin olive oil.
6-7 oils seems a bit much. More power to you. Go girl. How can one really decipher which oil has the most impact. However, I too make my flax seed gel, adding oil when done. Thank you.
Such a great informational video! How do you use rosehip on your face? Also, can I use this oil on my body?
Thank you for sharing this oil recipe, I can't wait to make it.❤❤❤

I love this!! 😢😢 Experimenting with my hair!! Wondering if these products work on type 2A hair 😢😢
Love your hair results and girl you don’t need make up your hermosita 😍🙌🏼
Hi I forgot to ask in my other comment but did you see a difference in your skin with the red light? Thanks
Hola Alba. Me encantan tus videos, yo cuelo mi linaza(flax seed) con un colador. Enseguida acabada de apagar, de la estufa a colar inmediatamente. Cuando se enfria se tornará espesa. Me resulta más fácil y rápido así. Trátalo verás que es mucho mejor y menos complicado.
Hello Alba. I love your videos, I strain my flax seed with a strainer. Immediately after turning off, from the stove to strain immediately. When it cools it will thicken. I find it easier and faster that way. Try it and you will see that it is much better and less complicated.
I wonder can you make about 4 batches of gel and freeze it. 🤔
I haven't seen one of your videos in so long I missed you!
Why? Well thanks for being here today :) I appreciate you.
@@Mrs.AlbaRamos I just watch whatever is recommended lol! But I've been catching up ☺️ np
I love the diy oil! I did your old recipe & really liked it! I’m not sure how I’d use the flax gel because my hair is 4c.
What hair dye do you recommend. To cover greys
I'm a huge fan of flaxseed gel
I always use it and recommended.
I'm going to start adding the oíl prepoo recipe to my wash days now that a dye my hair cooper
How do you know what type of hair you have?
Thank you for the video. Very informative! When did you stop falling out after having your baby?. I'm 2 years out and still shedding more than usual.
very helpful video. Excited to make you recipes

Is this good for all hair types?
I used flaxseed gel on my hair to curl it and it caused breakage..what should I do?
ADD ROSEMARY OIL !!! IT IS THE MAIN SECRET OIL FOR HAIR GROWTH YOU ARE MISSING OUT SO MUCH IF YOU DONT ADD THAAAAAAT Please trust me .
Rosemary is the last oil I added in this recipe hun.
She did add Rosemary.
What about storage shoulde i keep it in the fridge for a week maximum
Do you keep your gel in the refrigerator?
If I make more than 8oz yes, but if I only make 8oz like in this video I keep it on my bathroom sink and I never have any left by day 6 so I actually don't need to refrigerate it in my case.
Liked. Hope you're doing well, enjoying 2021, and staying safe.
Hello Mrs.Ramos am the one your 1000 subscribers congratulations to you
Love the flax gel
Thank you i had the old receipe and now something new do you have the receipt for the leave in oil
Is there a almond oil substitute I am allergic. Or is it okay just not add this oil.
You could just skip this oil and add more avocado and Argan oil instead.
@@Mrs.AlbaRamos Thank you for your response and recommendation.
Do you have to refrigerate the oil?
Hola Alba! Una vez hice el gel de linaza pero me dejó residuos blancos. Sabes como evitarlo? Gracias 💚

@@Mrs.AlbaRamos Mrs. Ramos dear is the leave in just for styling? we can just put the flax seed gel without any leave in cream right?
