Many people might not know that flaxseed is not only an important part of one's diet, but also an effective ingredient in home beauty remedies. Its richness of vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids help nourish the hair follicles and scalp. This strengthens the hair, makes it less prone to breakage, and stimulates its growth. When used regularly, this easy flaxseed leave-in conditioner will keep your hair looking shiny and well-nourished.

  1. Place the flax seeds into a pot with distilled water. Bring it to a boil.(3 minutes)
  2. Once boiling, take it off the stove and strain the mixture, reserving the liquid.(2 minutes)
  3. Transfer the liquid to a jar and set aside to cool before putting in the refrigerator for storage.

After straining your flaxseed leave-in conditioner, you may add a teaspoon of coconut oil and 5-10 drops of your preferred essential oil for extra nutrition.

This natural conditioner well gelatinize and thicken as it cools. Once you have washed and conditioned your hair, place a small amount of the conditioner in your hand and rub it between your palms. Then massage it throughout your hair and scalp without rinsing it.
