Thank you for your video. ❤ I noticed others do a 1 spoon to 1 cup ratio. The thickness is a lot runnier and creamier than it is with yours. That might help to try it that way. ❤
@@wavygirljessie I tried it with amazing results I put 2 spoons and 2 cups but it made way too much. It lasts for a few days maximum in an airtight container. On the hair, it dries just like store bought gel with a really hard casing that needs to be scrunched so it breaks and shaken out so you don't have flakes just like store bought gel. And it really holds! I love it so much. I just wish I knew a way to have it for longer but I heard a spoon of sugar preserves it. Or maybe citrus peels boiled and then use the water of it? I don't know. I'm not too fond of chemical preservatives so those are my only ideas but I didn't try either one yet. Would love if you experiment and see if they help in preserving 🙈 or if I do I'll update you here 😄🥰
@JC4all_dena ooh I'm really tempted to give it another go! I also love flaxseed gel and I remember when that was gaining popularity I saw people freeze it in ice cube trays and then when they needed it they'd just remove an ice cube and I think leave it defrost while they took a shower or something, perhaps that'd be the easiest way to preserve it?
Should I try more DIY recipes? 🤔
Your results looked great!
Flax seed gel is great! It has nice hold and it’s gentle and rinses out great.
Never tried and wont ever try. Nice results! Would love to see you try oat gel!
Other gels to try: aloe vera gel, okra gel, chia seed gel
This is impressive. I may try it on my daughter and me

Thank you for the suggestion!
@@wavygirljessie you're so welcome! ❤️ Thanks for reminding me.🤭 Off I go to make some cornstarch gel 😌
@JC4all_dena have you tried it before or will it be your first time? 😍

I'd like you to try a more long term use of these diy gels, not just a one wash test
