Natural Hair Tip of the Week #2: Flaky Gel Alternative

An aloe vera gel

You must have gotten the memo by now. If not, I got you. 100% Aloe Vera is a great source of moisture that can also be used as a gel. Use it on your dry hairline to lay those edges down or on wet hair to set that perfect twist-out. Add a light, natural oil to help the the gel maintain it's moisturizing quality. There you it - flake-free gel.

Please remember, however, that any product that is overused can quickly cause buildup and flaking. We must curb your heavy-handed tendencies and use only enough to get the results you need.

Aloe Vera gel is also:

• a good anti-inflammatory product
• great for soothing scratches, burns and dandruff etc.
• a good source to help balance the pH level of your hair.
