I'm allergic to perfumes and fragrances even found in 100% natural hair gel. I've come across a great recipe by simply boiling flax seed in water, but it must stay in the fridge to keep it from spoiling.

I'm looking for a natural preservative that would allow me take my gel with me when I travel. I have read that essential oils will do the trick, but have no idea of what kind to try. Can any one help me? Please email me at kennysacht@cableone.net
