Don't Shrink Flaxseed Elongating Curling Gel
Flaxseed elongating gel for stretched-out, shrinkage-free curls
One of the most distinctive products in the range — specifically formulated to counteract shrinkage rather than just define curls. The Flaxseed base provides a gel-like hold that encourages curl elongation, meaning curls dry longer than they would naturally. Also works well for twist-outs and braid-outs where elongation is the goal. The formula is CGM-modified (has some non-approved ingredients by strict standards, but broadly gentle). No flaking, no crunchiness — the brand has consistently delivered on that promise in community reviews. A favourite for 4a–4c hair that experiences significant shrinkage.
