Flax seed gel results: Part 2

After twisting my hair with flax seed gel I did notice that my twists had more shrinkage than usual and the ends were curlier, I think that both of these were due to additional moisture.  This picture is from the day after I twisted so the twists here are damp.

I don't usually like the way that my twists look when I wear them down so I pinned them up with bobby pins and called it a day.  This pic and then next two are my hair after my twists have been put up.  This pic is the back view of course.

Hello lovelies,

So, I am back to report my thoughts on the flax seed gel used on twists.  I twisted my hair as usual (co-wash, leave-in and twist while dripping wet), but this time I added flax seed gel with the hopes that it would help keep down the frizz.  Unfortunately, the gel didn't help much with the frizz.  Usually I can wear my twist comfortably for a day, I wear them on day 2 despite lots of frizz and by day 3 I feel it necessary to take them out, because they are too frizzy.  With the flax seed gel I was comfortable wearing the twist for 2 days, and could have made it 3.  So the gel helped a bit, but nothing tremendous.  I'm not quite as in love with the gel as I first thought, but I do still really like it and plan to continue using it.  This weekend I made some more and re-used old flax seeds (as Naptural85 said I could), but I prefer to just start afresh with the seeds. 

On a slightly other note, I used shea butter (whipped) as my leave in for my twist out, and this is the first time I have ever done that so I'll let you know the results of that a bit later. 

That's all I have for now.  For all you Marcus D Wiley (Bishop Secular) fans, he is performing on Sunday evening at the Medallion Club here in Cola, tickets are $20.

Tootles for now,

Love, peace and happiness
