Flax seeds is my farvorite product for hair care I am using it in various ways like; suplementing it, using as a hair gel, moustirising humecant, adding to conditioners or oils for hair grow, also as a homemade face mask. Get to know my recipies!

Flax seeds are superfoods avaliable in almose every shop or pharmacy. Connected with water seed change it's physical properties - they swell and surround themselves with a lot of mucus. Eatng regularly they have a positive effect on the digestive system, circulatory system, as well as hair, skin and nails.

Flax Seeds For Health :

The health benefits of linseeds are due to the presence of fiber, lignans and omega-3 fatty acids. For summer suplementation flax seeds are a great choise. I eat them everyday which makes me feel healthier, and i also noticed an improvement in my scalp, hair fall less. I boil it in a cup and adding 2 spoons of seeds to a glass of water, I also like to eat it with porridge or adding jelly and fruits.

How to make flax seed jelly? :

Ingredients: Water (150 ml), Flax seeds (1,5 spoons), Fruits (100g), Maple syrup (1 spoon)

This incredibly healthy desert is a great way to improve the taste of flax seeds. You just need to add fruits and syrup with the boiled flax seeds gel.

Hair gel :

This natural hair gel works so well I especially recommend it for curly hair!

How to get the best effects with the hair gel on curly hair?

• Apply on damp hair lots of sieve flax gel and press it in your hair, squash the curls in a head down position.

• Pick your hair from the bottom of your head to the entire length of the strand in your hand.

• Optionally, pin up your hair with clips at the top to add the volume.

• Let your hair dry naturally or use a diffuser dryer with cold air and fluff your hair.

• Don't brush your hair! Hair Wash

Before oiling :

Flax seeds as and oiling foundation as it a representative of humectants. A humectants before oiling (like flax seeds or aloe vera) enhances the effects of the oil and together they create an excellent moisturizing and oiling mixture. Firstly spray your hair with flax seeds gel and water then apply your favourite oil. Leave it for few hours and then wash your hair.

Hair mask :

As an additional ingridient to hair conditioner

or homemade mask like this -->

• 2 oil spoons

• 1 spoon of flax seeds gel

• 1 spoon of potato starch or kakao

Keep a mask for approx 30min on your hair under a warm bonnet (for best effects) and then rinse your hair.

Moisturizing mist :

It will smoothen your hair and also help to keep the right peh balance if you need more moisture.

• 200ml destilated water

• 2 spoons of flax gel

• 1 spoon of chosen oil

• 1-2 drops of silk

Hair Rince :

This is my favourite way for rinsing. After this hair getting maximal moisturised, shiny and naturally laminated.

To make it we need 1litr of water and half cup of flax seeds and apple vinegar.

Make a gel, strain the seeds and then add rest of water with 2-3 spoons of apple vinegar in the bowl. After washing your hair, dip your hair in this bowl for some minutes and use as rinse. Then at last use leave-in conditioner.

Effects are really cool but don't use it everyday but if you like it, you can make it every 3/4 washes.

7. Face mask

The linseed mask helps to fight all signs of aging. It is possible thanks to its rich resources of vitamin E. Regular application of a linseed mask smoothes wrinkles, prevents cell death and soothes signs of fatigue. It also has a soothing effect on the skin cooled by frost, dried by wind and sun, eliminating all redness. Thanks to the folic acid contained in flax, our skin regenerates and whitens perfectly. The acid also protects it against inflammation.

So if you want your face to be perfectly smooth and rejuvenated, free of any defects, apply on a linseed mask. To make this mask, you just need to use the seeds after boiled gel. More about daily skin care.
