Can you use Aloe vera juice to replace the powder?

[@ST-us7kq]

hi, i really love your recepie but can I use preservative leucidial liquid SF in this recepie?

[@Karamelmocha32]

I tend to disperse my xantham gum in honey. My hair isn't super fond of glycerin.

[@danashine1137]

Hi Elise, how do I reduce flakes in this gel?

[@glowup7294]

Hii I have been trying many of your all have come out well

[@anjealin259]

This gel recipe has transformed my hair. It’s nourishing yet still provides hold without my hair being crunchy. I’ve able to go an extra week before wash day and probably could have gone another few days if my scalp wasn’t itchy. My hair is so much more manageable and the only thing I’ve changed in my routine is the gel. Thank you!

[@candlecane]

You need to do something with your voice. Voice acting, ASMR, etc. SOMETHING! New sub. I love how you show what happens when you mix something the wrong way.

[@madeline569]

That's exactly what I thought! What a beautiful calm voice

[@cf-ry1zo]

I love the way her voice sounds. It's so calming to watch.

[@lydiaswanson3240]

I just made this gel yesterday, and let me tell you it works soooo much better than flax/aloe gel! Thank you for a great recipe!

[@MsMatt919]

Where did you find the hydrolysed wheat protein?

[@asc3179]

Green beauty sells it on Amazon

[@patrila1377]

Girl, how are you so amazing?! I found your channel yesterday and I've been binge watching since 😅 I've learnt so much already. I'm already obsessed with DIY hair products but I've been feeling a bit lost with skincare lately and along comes WholeElise 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 I'm grateful for all you're doing. I pray that God's hand will continue to be upon your life, directing your path. Love you lots ❤

[@WholeElise]

I'm so glad, thank you so much! 😊

[@fareloz]

Gums have synergy effect. You can combine guar gum and xantham gum for extra "geliness"

[@rochelleserrell98]

Your voice is so soothing. I’m glad I found your channel. I’m so lazy when it comes to DIY. I was looking for a link to buy the already made product but since this is super easy I guess I can try it. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. God bless you!!!

[@literally-nobody]

I honestly really prefer flaxseed gel it's cheaperaand it works on my hair and I understand everyone's hair is different so flaxseed gel is just what works better for me personally

[@jackseve]

I wish I could use it. It was beautiful but I am allergic. Looked like I had chicken pocks. And my whole scalp was inflamed and red. No flax on my skin or in my body.

[@TheLoveOfGodPodcast]

Your channel is the gift that keeps on giving

[@stylezbeautyco]

First time here and this is my second video. I love it!!! So detailed and thorough! Ive been wanting to revamp my own hair products for my clients and wanting to give them more variety of products and adding more value to their hair. Thank you so much for your insight! This really helps me with a better foundation for my products!

[@DiscoveringMe1111]

Your videos are all so professional and beautifully shot. They're interesting and super informative. I've learnt more from just 3 of your videos than I have in 1 year. I'm so glad I found your channel. Thank you for such beautiful content.

[@artistatammy8211]

Your voice is so soooooothinggggg 💖💖 I feel so relaxed watching this . You've helped me greatly in making my own hair gel as I specialize in locs .

[@Angela-il4td]

I'm so excited that I found this channel!! This made my week. This channel and website is amazing! Hands down, so impressed with the content. I'm about to binge watch all the videos!

[@1cakesz]

I LOVED this! Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together and sharing this!❤️ I have been researching ways to make my own hair gel for awhile now since I decided to stop using wetline (great gel, great hold but not healthy for my hair or body) so this is perfect. Thank you

[@healthislifeandhealthiseve9749]

I love you for not hiding anything from us thanks so much

[@strinilogs]

Just visited your website. Wow. I so pumped to make everything on it. Making homemade stuff is great because you know what you put in it and it saves money in the long run. Thanks for sharing freely. You will be blessed.

[@Jordanalexnder]

This gel worked great on my hair! Thank you so much

[@theaansel8738]

Genius, so brilliant this may be very good for babies and people with scalp conditions. Thank you

[@tyra_A]

I'm so happy I found your channel. I will definitely try this.

[@BezaCabeza]

holy moly this gel is so good!!! leaves a cast but crunches out into beautiful soft waves. this saves me a lot of money thank you so much ELISE@!! i didnt put any aloe powder and used propylene glycol in place of glycerin and still works great!

[@websiteckron8591]

Thanks Elise, finally a I found a recipe that works for me. It is awesome! I have got natural red strait hair. Now in menopause it is going curly! My hair loves it all the way. Thank you for sharing.

[@JtJ2024]

Thank you been looking for an alternative for weeks now thank you so much.

[@Nana-vx6mt]

Awesome!!!! Great tutorial very highly informational. Definitely can't be lazy to do this recipe.

[@auderichards4982]

** Fantastic & revolutionary hair gel** It’s my 3rd test recipes from WholeElise, I recently made the leave-in-conditioner which amazed me for how simple and professional it looked ! I did the hair gel recipe as I was tired of each sundays cooking flaxseed gel. I wasn’t expecting much of it until i tested it on a strand of hair. One strand damped in water with the leave-in-conditioner (the Whole Elise one) then the gel and some argan oil. One other strand damped in water without the leave-in, gel and argan oil. That’s when magic happened ! The gel instantly glides through the hair and fully nourishes it. The curls are fully present and shiny. It’s the best hair I’ve ever had in my life ! Especially as I frequently play sports and swimm in pools, even when deep conditioning it hasn’t been so moisturized. Fantastic a huge thank you to Elise for sharing generously her knowledge ! Life changing recipe 🤩☺️

[@auderichards4982]

I didn’t put aloe vera powder, neither the preservative eco so I’m not sure if it slightly modifies the recipe’s texture and result. It’s definitely going to be a fast wash&go gel for after sport sessions. Especially when you’re the last one in the lockeroom still washing&styling your hair...😛😛

[@goodbook6000]

Can u plz tell that this gel dries afterward ? I mean i hope it doesn't give wet look on hair ?

[@M.I.22]

Thank you so much!! This is extremely helpful and so clear. The video was also very relaxing to watch and listen to! ❤️🙏🏽😍

[@fastclip6707]

Thank you so much Whole Elisa for this great knowledge.

[@FayeInTheCity]

This looks amazing! Would it be ok with you if I make a video trying this recipe (giving you full credit and linking to your channel, of course)?

[@WholeElise]

Aww thanks hun, love your channel! Oh that'd be great, once I started making my gel this way there was no going back to boiling flaxseeds 😅💚

Im really liking your channel. The videos you've created are soothing yet informative. Sometimes we want to get creative and not follow recipe. You took the time show what happens when we dont "follow directions" lol. And hunie hunie your website is beautifully created and Unique. You have gained a subscriber. Thank you!!

What, in your opinion, is the most natural preservative that works well. I don't mind making smaller batches but don't want to have to do it on a weekly basis, though I'd like the products to be as chemical free as possible. Thank you 🙂

Great tip about mixing with glycerin before adding water. Have you made a hair gel with fruit pectin?

[@CristinaM053]

Please could you try to do Hair Foam (Mousse) for twists 🥰

[@sjhhomecollections]

Hi! New subscriber here. I made this recipe for my daughter's hair. It works great...the only difference is, mine came out a brownish color because my aloe vera powder isn't white. I also added a couple drops of lavender oil. Thx a million 🤩

[@WholeElise]

Aww really? I'm so glad! If you managed to apply it to the kids without too much trouble then that's a true test of a good hair product lol! 😊💚

I Just find this. Flaxseed Gel is actually to heavy for my Thin Hair (I think) and I don't Like the smell. So I would try this Out. And your voice ist soooo calm and nice. Reminds me so much of my sleeping meditations

[@newlightning2306]

Hi Elise, hope you are well, I know you have uploaded a video since this one but I was sooo inspired by this one. You mentioned that this can be kept for months instead of weeks; May I ask the shelf life of this gel please? Thank you 🙏🏿 in advance x

Great video! I'm a new Sub as of today... oh and I turned on my notification bell because I would hate to miss out. Thank you WholeElise

[@sydneytaylercolbert]

What do you think would be a good formula for a retwist gel for locs? The goal of this type of gel would be extreme, long-lasting hold with no build up. Seems like it would be a mix of a pomade and a gel.

[@albavellozo6035]

My hair is dead straight but I (weirdly) have curly edges and side burns that can be quite hard to tame and a lot of gels just won’t hold them down, would this work for me? Btw I love how you make natural diy products so simple and easy🥰 I’m really into making my own products and channels like yours are my saving grace 🙏🏼❤️God bless xx

[@kerricumberbatch2820]

Blessings increase Queen

[@naturetechtv4624]

You are the greatest of all times. Where have you been all this while? Well I'm glad I found your channel at last. Thank you very much. Pls can this gel be used as edge control? If not, then can you make a video on edge control pls. Thank you.

[@WholeElise]

Aww you're so sweet! Happy to have you here 💚 I prefer to use this for wet hair styling but I do have a Shea butter edge control that you could try: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJ6ai6Shbcika5I 😊

[@JahleeyahKalonji]

WholeElise....wow, this was excellent, I have locs and don't use a lot of gel BUT I have to try making this. I wonder if sodium lactate would work if glycerin doesn't work for some...I wonder if aloe vera juice would work instead of water for additional moisture....hhhmmm, time to experiment. The fact that you shared this is awesome.

[@daniellefinney9507]

Could the eco preservative also be used in flaxseed gel to keep from having to refrigerate it?

How firm of a hold does this gel give you? I typically like a curl curl because gels can be too firm for my hair and a cream leaves my hair soft but gives it some hold.

Can you add essential oils for scents?
