Make Your Own Flax Seed Hair Gel Using 8 Simple Steps Have you tried making your own all natural hair styling gel right in your own kitchen? If you would like to know how I make my own hair gel, this write-up will give you a clear picture. Throughout my grow hair journey, I have been having an adventurous and fun time exploring many natural ingredients to make hair recipes.

And some may also add preservative. Otherwise, this gel can be kept in small portions in the freezer. Whenever you need, just take out one of the small portions, thaw it and it is good to go. To apply, 'crunch' the gel using your fingers and apply the gel to your hair. A wide tooth comb comes in handy
