Natural Hair Solutions
You should have seen my face when my sister told me that one of the ingredients (Tetrasodium) in my favourite hair gel was a MAJOR and I mean MAJOR no no! Recognized by the National Cancer Institute as known carcinogen, it’s apparently a penetration enhancer. Meaning… it can break down the skin’s protective barrier, making it easier for other potentially harmful ingredients to sink deeper into your tissues and even bloodstream. Wow!
So what did I do? Turn to YouTube of course and to my fave – Naptural 85, whose Homemade Flaxseed Gel recipe* seemed almost too easy to be true! Well, I tell you what… it was EASY! Flaxseeds, water, a sauce pan and a clean pair of thin tights. Less than an hour later I had perfect gel and so much of it that I now have a tray of frozen flaxseed cubes in the freezer for when I run out.
My hair is soooo happy! No flakes, just moisture and bounce!
If you do try it, let me know how you find it? 🙂
