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 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✨

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.
