This is a throw back gel. People use to do this back in the beginning of the natural hair movement, like 6 years ago before flaxseed gel popped off. Thank you for reminding us of this gem. Come through gel.
I didn’t catch this wave at all back then 😩
Which gel do you like better?
@@TracySaysiDrew @Tracy and Ryan the reasons flaxseed took over, accessibility, price, and ease of use. It's not as hard to source xanthan gum nowadays, but I think flax still beats it for ease of use.
Tried this recipe to the tee and OMG....my curls are defined soft touchable non greasy non flaky....THANK YOU FOR THIS...I was about to cut my hair off......you are about to put some of these folks put of business🤗🤗 and I found all of the ingredients on amazon!!!
Glad it worked for you!
YASSS on this gel! I’ll have to try it!
Yesss! Thanks for sharing this! Can't wait to try!
You are welcome!
Beautiful twist out. WOW!!!!💯💯💯💯💯
I asked My Daughter, if as soon as she finishes up the Gel she has which doesn't work too well on her thick hair, I asked her to make your DIY Gel & that's exactly what she will do.
She will make for herself and for Me !!
Thank You
Del Sol.

No worries at all
Thank you for sharing this with us. I have spent hundreds of dollars over the years on gels that only damaged my hair. I like the idea of not having to boil anything also, I can take the ingredients with me and make it anywhere. Girl you are the best 👍🏽👍🏽
You are welcome!
I neva’ thought about making my own gel. Your recipe looks so simple. I am SO excited to try this this weekend. Gotta get me some xanthan gum first. Thanks for this video. ❤️

Heyyy Boo.🙋🏾♀️💜 Thank's for making it simple for me.
You’re welcome!
Amazing 😉 I definitely am going to try this
Please do!
Lady, I have been waiting for this!!! This is way easier than I realized. I have aloe juice so I just need the glycerin and gum... I think even I could make this... I hope 😂😂!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
lol you can!
This is cool... saw this before bc its popular in the vegan community I believe. Meant to try it out. You've inspired me to give this a try. Your results are beautiful!
Thanks lovely
Excellent recipe! It works well for me! Now, working on making my own leave in. It seems like my hair doesn’t like conditioner!
Happy to help!

a reliable blast from the past
yes, yes, yes 😁
🙏🏾
You just gave me a great idea!!!! Thanks for this video
You’re welcome!
I'm subscribing, because you actually respond to your comments! It's annoying when you want more details or clarification and the youtuber never responds.
I pride myself on that. It’s important to engage with your audience
Ikr
Thank you I'm trying ASAP!
Ayeee
Love it!😍
Thanks sis
I’m using this with my onion juice pre-poo recipe!!!
Great results! Thanks for the recipe. I would love to see your stretching routine.
Ok!
YASSSSSSSSSSSS finally sis
I got you!
I am here for this!!!!! It works, and I save money, and it is good for my hair!!! Come through and look out for me, thanks girl for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
You’re so welcome
Does it leave any residue in the hair?
Hair Class is back in section..tfs
Ayee
I know this post is old but I still want to leave a comment. I want to thank you for this recipe. I only knew about flaxseed gel and aloe vera gel. I found others existed through CurlyChemist and went on a hunt and found this which works perfect for me. All gels made from products using natural products causes serious eye issues for me. This was perfect thanks.
You are so welcome
💙💙💙 Tfs I’m gonna try this
TFW!
Great video...thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching hon
For once I have all the ingredients in my house! 😄 I'm gonna make this to use in my baby's hair.
Me too!
Lol let me know how it goes
@@SheReaDelSol I just tried it out but I used half as much water. The slippppppp is incredible!!! I don't think it'll work as a gel in my hair bcuz the hold isn't as strong as I like it. I'm thinking of using aloe vera juice instead of water and making it a pre-poo.
I love how it applied to my son's hair! I'll try to get a good pic and slide into ur DMs (u know...since the slip is so bomb! 😂😂😂).
@@evrytingkriss Glad you got to try it! I have an aloe prepoo video: ua-cam.com/video/Dzz3zxJFvbU/v-deo.html
Love this! I'll def be making this with hibiscus tea!
*Thank you SheRea♥*
Always ❤️
I have to give this a try. TFS
TFW LOVE!
Definitely gonna try this! I would love to see how you stretch your hair.
Okie babe
@@SheReaDelSol Ooh! I looked for the How to stretch hair by you, but didn't find it. Can you share the link? I'd like to try it out.
@@TracySaysiDrew I never did it. I need to.
Love this. Thank you
You’re welcome
omg! I wanna give you ALL the likes for this video lol! I've been searching for a fragrance free gel forever but they are expensive and made for ....non black people lol. This is PERFECT! Bless you!!
You’re welcome!
I love your videos!!!!
Thanks hon!
Love this !!! Plz show how u stretch your hair
Alright!
❤️❤️❤️ love it
Thanks hon
I may have to give this recipe (minus the glycerin) a try. KKCC was my fav but cost too much. Thanks for sharing.
You’re very welcome
I am waiting for my vegetable glycerin to arrive in the mail because of you! I will be incorporating the vegetable glycerin in my rice water leave in ! You rock I promise you I am you’re number one subscriber!
Thanks hon!
You had me at no boiling and no straining. Hello SheRea! Thanks for the recipe.
You’re welcome
Trying this thank you!
Anytime!
I am a "barely wavy" lady and I loooooove the Uncle Funky's Daughter Curly Magic Activator, so I'm ***definitely*** trying your recipe! I just ordered the xantham gum!
Let me know if it works!
@@SheReaDelSol I will! I will!
How did it compare?
Love it 😊
Thanks my dear
2021 and I’m about to make more of this! ❤️
Amazing
How did I miss this video?? Thank you for sharing ❤
It’s old lol
I know but the idea is still good and I'm going to try it! I love your DIY's! Enjoy the rest of this year and Happy New Year's to you❤
@@dionnerenee3436 Same to you!
Girl I'm telling you it don't have all that extra stuff in not 20 ingredients! This is a great recipe. Girl that braid out was just as beautiful as the ones with all those different products frfr! Tfs gyal😊
Thanks so much!
Gurl you need to be selling this gel and starting your own line but I'm going to try this when I buy some glycerin and the gum product. Tfs
Sure thing
Thank you for making this 🙏🏾. Is this safe for kids?
Yes, of course
Wow I might have to get my dyi on 🤷🏽♀️
Ayee
Gurl you better patent your recipes, these companies out here stealing 👀. can I replace the glycerin with honey for the moisture since my hair acts funny with glycerin?
Definitely can!
Please note that xanthan gum dissolves in glycerin and that's why it's so necessary. You can add honey to your recipe and dissolve the gum in glycerin or oil. else there will be clumps of the gum in your gel that may only be removed by an immersion blender.
@@ayeoritset5049 thank you!
Yasssss bring on the gel🤷🏿♂️
🙏🏾🙏🏾
Really nice
Please give us your no heat stretch routine.
OK LOVE!
Your SMILE is so pretty!
What do you find to be difference between xanthum gum vs guar gum?? (I got guar gum for your bomb Detangler)
Edit: now have xanthum as well
No acknowledgment for 6mo+ lol but that's ok I stand by my Encouraging words & say what I mean❣️ ... Just wondering if still using gel, & if anyone noticed a difference using Water vs Aloe juice??
Would this work with hair growing serum? Mostly oils, I thought maybe it would need an emulsifier and preservative
Come through!!! Waiting for you to drop your line sis 😅😁💕
LOL!
First! 😍
And I appreciate it!
Uh oh! I tried this wonder last night. My hair is still wet after 12hrs of drying. The hair has white flakes from the DIY Gel. I'm going to put in some avocado oil/aloe/she butter on to break the gel cast. It feels & sounds crunchy. I didn't use a leave in. I also forgot to pat out the excess product. I did a braid out. Pros: It gave me a lot of curl definition & I usually have non. Lots of bounce & shine. I created this at home, on my own. Ooh wii!!! I can't wait to see your stretching method. I'm going to keep trying this.
If you use too much, you will definitely get flakes 😩😩
@@SheReaDelSol Yep, A LOT!!! But I'm going to get better each time. Have you done a DIY Liquid leave-in conditioner on your channel? If so, can you link me, please? I want to try the 1st method you did with the LO-Gel method. Thanks SheRea.
I will be trying this gel
Let me know
No wonder my curls were popping when I used your prepoo recipe.
Exactly
Does it dry soft or crunchy? And any xanthan gum powder works, or it has to specify that its clear? I ask because I saw a small bag at walmart for like $4 and Id rather get that than a big bag, in case I dont like it as much as flaxseed.
Hey I wanted to let you know that I have received my vegetable glycerin in the mail today! I will be adding it to my Rice 🍚 water Leave in
Ayeee
Amazing
This is all I use. I stopped buying gel about 6-8 months ago and haven't looked back. I don't use a lot at a time cos my hair is thin, fine and short. I freeze it. I have made the last batch with preservative. I will see how that works out. If I didn't share a freezer, I wouldn't even have bothered with a preservative but freezer space is limited.
I might try this with rose water 😍🌹
Did it work out??
@@krenee984 yes 😍
Nice
Great video! I love this idea! How long does this gel stay fresh? Should it be refrigerated?
It can last outside the fridge for a few days but I advise to keep it in the fridge
SheRea DelSol ok cool! Do u know how long it’s good for if refrigerated?
A month or more even
Can you do a leave in conditioner version this was soo good
Ok!
Yass
@@SheReaDelSol cant wait
Yum
Come thru with the recipes, can I use guar gum instead of xanthan gum?
Never tried using guar for this tbh. You’ll have to let me know
Where's your patent at? Gorgeous curls. How do you stretch your hair after takedown? I do banding with satin scrunchies.
I’ll show y’all
I would like to see your stretch routine
Okie
Yesssss ❤️❤️❤️💣
🙌🏾🙌🏾
Tempting ❤️ how wet would you say your hair was while styling-damp or very wet? And what’s the shelf life in the fridge Sis?
Definitely damp girl. And about a month tbh
SheRea DelSol
🤯 cheap as they both are, that’s more cost effective than flaxseed. I’m game. I’m trying this!
Correct!
SheRea DelSol
Listen..I got an update. I subbed water with fresh aloe and fenugreek tea. And I subbed glycerin with almond oil. I used to say ‘how can people have the nerve to want definition AND elongated curls, like 🤨..make up your mind..’
Now, I feel like such a hypocrite..cuz it’s *here.* My hair is defined, elongated, and crazy SOFT. I can’t go outside or I’ll feel like I’m being caught in a lie-shooketh 🤭
I may give this a whirl. Xanthan gum used to give me flakes. I may just try your way.
Your hair looks 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Do you still use this? If so, I would love to see this on your longer hair.
I haven't used it in forever, but maybe I will revisit
Please help me out i cut my hair to tapperd cut. I have low porosity 4c type hair. I was abou to order for kinky curly curling custard you reviewed then I saw this diy. Which one will you suggest I go for?
This acts like kccc
Thanks you. So I should go for the diy.
Can hydroxyethylcellulose work as a gel ?
PERIODDD
Lol
Is it possible for your hair to change his porosity? Because I am low porosity but I did the strand test and now my hair is at the top of the water 💦
Your porosity can change but I don’t think that porosity test is effective
How can i make this amazing gel in a bigger batch because my hair is super thick so i need more than a little amount to cover my entire hair?
I added a preservative. I am still in the process. My gel is only a few weeks old. I have successfully frozen this gel as well and it freezes with no problems at all. I opted for a preservative because I need freezer space. After the first batch you will see how much you need. I play it by ear. I worked on 1tsp to 1 cup liquid. You can always add more xanthan or liquid if necessary. Play around with it and take notes, so you know what you did, how much you used and how it worked. Play around with different consistencies to see what works for your hair. My hair needs it thick for a wash and go and thinner with a bit of oil for finger coils
