Title: Almond Oil Hair Gel
Categories: Hair *
Yield: 8 Ounces

1 1/2	c	Warm water
1	pk	Unflavored gelatin
1	ts	Glycerine
1	tb	Almond oil
1/4	ts	Almond extract, optional

Combine the warm water and gelatin. Stir until the gelatin is dissolved. Add the glycerine, almond oil and almond extract, if desired. Stir the mixture until all ingredients are blended well. Don't worry if the oil floats to the top of the mixture.

Refrigerate the mixture until it is almost set, about 1 hour. Stir the mixture thoroughly, mixing together the water and the oil. Place back in the refrigerator until set, about another hour. Remove firm gel from the refrigerator. When it reaches room temperature, it is ready for use. Stir the mixture thoroughly one last time before using. Store in an airtight container. You can use this gel on either wet or dry hair to set and style it.
