Thanks for a realistic routine that the average person can follow. Much love from Newfoundland 🥰
That’s cuz I’m the average person 🤣
God bless you for your honesty Susie. And for letting us know it’s ok for us curly girls to not look like a model every single day haha
Sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@@ismaelalessandro7408 girl click "I forgot my password," type your email that corresponds to the account, then Instagram will send you an email to reset your password lol.
3:17 perfect example of my hair got perfect by the end of the day, when it finally dries completely, and then it's time to go to bed again. Glad I'm not the only one. Thanks for the authenticity.
I am new to the CGM, and this is exactly what I needed to remind myself that its a process, everyday is different and it dosent mean what you are doing is wrong when your results vary day to day. I also love as a fellow Nova Scotian I know I can get the products you use in your videos, considering we have about half the selection available everywhere else! #NovaScotiaStrong
Susie - Your hair looks great no matter what you do to it! Even when you think it doesn't , I look at your hair and wish that I had your hair! It's gorgeous!
I'm the owner of a very soft, rather fine hair. I noticed that they deform and straighten quite easily and quickly. I do struggle to find a styling product
that would not weight down my hair but give it a better hold. Most of the time I just embrace it. I know that curls can't look perfect all the time and there is no exceptions. Although I am aware of it, I was still a bit surprised, that your rather thick hair sometimes straighten as much as mine.
I noticed that a lot of people assume that curly hair suppose to be curly 24 hours a day. This is just not possible, unless you have a kinky/coily hair maybe. Great video, thank you!
preach 👏 always feel bad (and sort of guilty??) when i see youtubers do 'morning curl refreshs' on curls that look just as tight and defined as wash day! all hair types and textures are beautiful ❤ also please let us know if you ever find that holy grail styling product for fine hair!
I would also be curious to know if anyone comes across a good gel for fine hair! I like your observation which was bang on, I have wavy hair, and it bugs me how it can go straight pretty quick… I’ve never realized curly hair can end up rather straight!
I have found using a silk bonnet and or silk pillow case works wonders for refreshing. I used to have to soak my hair and let it dry to get my curls to wake up. I have fine 3B hair, if I’m not using my bonnet or silk pillow case I look like I’ve straightened my hair. I honestly thought that it would be a waste of money but I’m glad that I took the plunge.
Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Stronger Hold has been the best for my fine 2a hair. (I have no idea if it's CGM approved.) Also helps if it's humid outside. Hask Argan Oil 5-in-1 Leave-in Spray to refresh before going out in the evening or for day 2. I also can't rake my fingers through my hair on curly days or it will just straighten out. Gel and scrunch only on curly days. Or brush through for a smooth day. It can be the best of both worlds!
Edited to say: I can't use any cream type styling products. They just weigh down my fine low-porosity hair. Curly Susie has high-porosity hair, so cream products can be moisturizing for her.
The thing is that you should just accept the fact that the natural state of your hair is a relaxed wave... I am 3a/3b and I used to do wash n' gos. My hair lasted 7 days with no refresh. I find refreshing to be very annoying for me 😅. If I had wavy hair, I would be too lazy to do all that work every day 😂
This is one of the most helpful videos I've found about dealing with wavy/curly hair every day. Thanks so much for sharing
"A little bit of mousse" *uses half can* 😂 looking great!
Just like when Bob Ross tells us to put just a bit of white in the canvas
I loved how you said that even though you had a great hair day you had to put it up because no one can stand a bunch of hair in their face at home!
Thank you for doing a video like this!!!! It's so nice to see how your hair really is for you on a daily basis & how you handle it. I have the hardest time refreshing without frizz everywhere & my hair ends up with the straightish waves too!
I love this video. I love how real and transparent you are with us, Susie! You are one of my favorites to watch because you always seem so authentic and I never feel like you are trying to sell me anything. I enjoy watching other UA-cam "influencers" too, but the experience is different. Thanks for being honest with your viewers and sharing your week with us! Loved the lil moments with your cat and son too. 😊💜
I agree with this SO much!!!!!
I'm all about clipping and pinning back unstyled hair in these quarantimes.
Just the type of Curly Girl content I want! Great video!
Thanks a million :)
I love how your hair looks with a claw clip in it. Like wake up, fluff, clip and go! That half up half down look reminds me of Kate Hepburn and I LOVE it.
I’d love to know what hair products and what Elaine Benis’ routine was on Seinfield! This was a great video. I tend to use too much products to refresh my hair. My water bottle soaks my hair too much vs just lightly wetting my hands from the faucet. Great tips.
Love this realistic video!
Soooo helpful, I re started the method and I am determined to
a) not get overwhelmed and keep it simple
b) just cream and gel for 1 month😱 maybe mousse to refresh 🤞
Please keep making videos, I adore you. Be safe and a very Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family ❤️
Love!!! The wavy-curly-straight style is almost my favourite day now, with a baby... Means it's time for an oddly pretty ponytail without "wasting" a wash day. 😅 Wash day = I'm gettin my (already falling out) hair yanked by a baby.
Thank you, thank you! I really needed this. I'm still trying to find out what hair type I am and what products my hair likes. It really helps to see how others evaluate their hair on a daily basis and how they decide what they are going to do to restyle. Very helpful!
I love your hair!!! It’s always so shiny 🙌🏼
Hey there 💕💕💕 I’m so excited that you commented. I LOVE your channel :)
Straight Up Susie and I love yours ❤️❤️❤️
I love that you normalized your hair. Now I can stop getting so annoyed with my hair :) thank you 😊
Such a great combo! We’re so glad our Biotera alcohol free defining gel and All about curls bouncy cream was a part of it! ♥️
I live in Ontario and haven’t found the Biotera Gel anywhere
It’s on amazon.ca.
iRon You can get it at Sally's
@@smc9060 for 4 times the price
I wish I could do a pineapple on my hair, but it's so long that it literally falls over my face when I sleep🤦♀️. I just end up doing braids🤷♀️.
Just so you know Curly Susie, ALL your video's are valuable & entertaining! I so appreciate your honesty. I never feel like your trying give us a sales pitch like so many other UA-cam influencers. Your evaluation of the products you choose is refreshing. Most of the products you've mentioned over the yrs have worked of me! I love that many of them are from the drugstore too! Although, I've been interested in the Briogeo products recently & here you are trying them! I watched your wash day video & am interested in your thoughts once you've completed your full evaluation. Also, someone asked what lipstick you mostly wear in your video's. It's the one you applied in this video with your son on your lap. Essence #4 I believe you said. I checked out the colour at my drug store. It looked much darker than the one you wear. Could you check the # again for me? I'd appreciate it as it's a great colour & it's affordable. Thanks so much. Stay safe! I'm a Canadian girl too!
Oh shoot! It might be #3.... I’ll check in a minute. I LOVE briogeo 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼it’s too expensive but I will repurchase the curl creme 100% & probably the conditioner if it goes on sale
If it’s the velvet matte you are looking at. You are right. It’s #3. Sorry.
I also wear #4 in the essence ones that come in the white tube... that one is called “this is nude” it’s lighter
@@CurlySusie Good to know. Thanks!
@@CurlySusie Thanks SO much for taking the time to answer this. I bought them both! Love the colours for everyday wear.
Lol I dont know why but scense starting the CGM I have not worn my hair up once in 8 months. Other then my pineapple under my bonnet before bed. I have been afraid to pull my curls back because I feel it is possible I might loose progress by pulling my strands up and back. My top layer seems to be taking longer to transition. So I often wonder if pulling it back will just stretch em out and make the process of transitioning longer. My hair really needs some curl memory, and I think it needs to be free to find its curl families to gain this lol. Has anyone noticed their hair transition while pulling it back?
The Elaine Benes! 🤣🤣🤣
Super useful vid-thank you!
Great video, Susie!
Love it! Real life! Sometimes I wonder why I even bother styling my waist length waves hair with gel and mousse. After it's dry, up into a bun or French braid it goes! We live on a ranch with 3 kids, horses, dogs and work. Gotta tie back the hair! But it kinda holds up anyway.....and I do no product days when I know I'm not leaving the place. Which is 6-7 days a week now 😂 Thanks for the fun video Susie!
A very loose bun shouldn't crush your curls too much! Maybe a Spock bun?
You have Beautiful hair!🌸
Hi Susie, I have a kinda damaged hair bec of chemical straightening/heat curling/and other products. Ive been looking online (ig/fb) ways on how to take care or restore my healthy curls back. Then I saw your 1 yo video, I want to try the curly girl method and I am looking forward to get some help from you. I am going to try what Ive watched tonight and also the products that you are using. Thank you very much for sharing your journey. 💖
Quarantine has made me so lazy that I've thrown it up in a bun more times then not.😬 Maybe this will give mee so inspiration to actually do my hair!😂 thanks for the video! I always enjoy them!🥰
My son (2) loves my lip stick as well. Especially my Jeffrey Star and Shane Dawson liquid lip collection 🤣
Toilet paper roll=sign of our times 😁. Great video! Wishing you, your family and friends continuing health!
I LOVE you and your videos and am excited to check out your new channel too. What other conditioners do you like that have a lot of slip besides the Tresemme Botanique??? I loved the Tropikal Bliss(but it takes so long to get it) and I like the Shea Moisture Leave In. I am a Bioterra gel fan too.
Thank you so much :)
Hmmmmm I love briogeo curl charisma but it’s very pricy 😬 I also like the cantu TXTR leave-in/rinse out from Sally
Hi Susie I think it's really useful to see that not every day is a great hair day. It's like TV - a lot of stars don't look like that without a team of hairstylists and makeup artists. it's not good for anyone to have unrealistic expectations, especially when curly or wavy hair is involved. it's so dependent on the products used and our natural curl or wave pattern. The only day my hair is down just now (I have long/thick/curly/dry hair) is washday. Otherwise it's in a messy bun or a bonnet when at home and a ponytail or clip when grocery shopping. I'm masking more and minimal heat due to not refreshing as much, so I'm hoping my hair looks healthy when quarantine ends. I think it's really important to have clips, clasps, hairbands etc etc so we can put our hair up on a bad hair day when we don't have time to wash. As with everyone else mine looks it's best on washday. I shampoo and mask once every seven or eight days and normally co wash once in between. I have dry hair and a very dry scalp due to eczema, all my skin is really dry and scalp is skin. I don't get greasy as I basically don't produce any oil, but I need to hydrate my scalp and hair at least once a week. I think there are a lot of us just now who are tying our hair up and not getting too worked up about our hair - we're not out for anyone to see it. Be well and best wishes.
Thank you so much for posting this!!! I feel like I fail at the CGM but this shows me my hair doesn't always need to be "perfect." Your honestly is worth $1,000,000.
Thanks for sharing suzie! I always struggle with being a "perfect" curly girl, styling and not pulling it back all the time. This gave a more realistic idea of how often curlies do their hair, which I needed. Also, I never refresh and you made this look alot easier than it sounds, I will have to try it out!
Love!! 🥰 thank you for sharing your weeks hair routine. I love your hair; it’s gorgeous. I tried and loved the biotera hair gel. 💕
This was SUPER helpful! I started the CGM July 1st...so only a few days in but I'm encouraged as I see your routine and have a better idea of what to do. Thank you!
Hey Sherri it’s December and I wanted to ask how is it going for you?? I re started for the 5th, 12th I have lost count.
Your videos are wonderful and I appreciate all your work! It been so helpful. I like my waves but after two years of no heat, and using the curly girl method as much as possible, I’ve come to the conclusion that it is way more expensive than straightening and so much more time consuming. It’s so much work ALL THE TIME, otherwise it a ratted mess. I have never spent so much on products and so much stress before, over my hair. I don’t find it worth the time and effort. Next hair appointment, I’m going back to what I was doing before which was straightening it once a week and switching it every other week or so, to waves. I feel like keeping my natural waves has consumed me, and I’m tired of thinking about hair and spending so much money on it😜. But I’m grateful for the knowledge I’ve gained from you and other UA-cam channels.♥️
The Elaine look 😂. My boyfriend said I dance like her too 😂
Thank you for your honesty. I have hair similar to yours and through out the years the texture has changed a little. I’ve always embraced my curly hair and I noticed that when I was younger my curls where soft more defined and shiny. Now that I’m 53 because of the grays (I think) I have so much more frizz some of my hair curls in ringlets and some strands are wavy not curling anymore. I’ve always knew how to style and take care of my curls so my hair has been healthy for most of my life, but now it’s a different story. But it’s refreshing to see that curly hair is not always perfect (as most UA-camrs portray.) So when I saw this video I was encouraged to know that my curls are not always going to be perfect and that’s ok there’s nothing wrong with what I’m doing to my hair. It’s the blessings of having curly “fun hair” as my daughter in love says about my hair. Thank you for sharing.
Your hair looks AMAZING...You have no frizz...My biggest problem...i'm going to try this...then i tell you
Love this video! Thank you for showing us every day realistic hair and sharing your journey with us. I love how real you are in your videos - you're beautiful inside and out
Hi Susie! Thank you so much for making this video, it's not every day you get to see an actual behind the scenes video of our favorite curly haired people living their life as normal and showing their hair at the same time. You have been super helpful to me as we have the same hair texture, and I officially started the CGM March 1st of this year. (Unofficially I've always worn my hair curly but never took care of it or bothered to learn how so it was always in a bun or a braid or whatever else.) I was just wondering, did you do any sort of curl training when in transition like finger coiling or using the denman brush etc? Did your curls eventually just come back to how they are now on their own? How long did it take for them to clump and form and remember how to act?
This was just what I needed - I’ve seen videos with fancy, multi-product styles and have thought there is no way I could do that each day. You help put all the pieces together. I also don’t wear make up and appreciate seeing others who don’t wear much but still look so beautiful.
I just want to thank you for making such real, honest content that I can trust with or without sponsors. As a fellow Canadian with a tight budget, you were my go to source and comfort when I first started with CGM. And I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you actually following through every video with including the products you use in your descriptions! So much Iove to you and your family from rural Ontario.
Great video! Thanks for being so thorough. What would you say is the best shampoo you've used to date that is gentle and moisturizing?
Hey, great video! Its nice to see someone with gorgeous curls being transparent about refreshing and the amount of work needed. I have to refresh my hair everyday and up until seeing this video, I thought I must be doing something wrong! So thanks, hope you're staying safe and taking care ❤
I wish my hair could be thick again like yours. I'm having so much hair loss the last couple years and haven't been able to figure out why. You've got gorgeous hair ❤️
Love love love this....makes us all feel better about our hair! Thank you for making this....this should be a challenge for other curly influencers....
TTHHHAAAANKKK YOUUUUU. I have been going crazy thinking there's something wrong with my hair or I ak doing something wrong because my hair gets straightish wavy like yours after a point if I don't maintain it. All others show only the Styled hair or 3a 3b curly hair and it's so confusing. Thank you for the real image
Watching this a year later. Thank you, Curly Susie!!!
I thought discovering i had wavy on top, curly on the bottom hair would be easier... it's definitely not!! I just blow-dried my hair straight after a year of trying the CGM method...I had several days of absolutely no worries, no refreshing.
I will probably try to continue to work with my wavy/curly hair because I don't want to damage it blow drying. Ugh!
I might get a permanent wave to even out my textures and make it easier to deal with. Decisions...decisions...
Why did you switch from Cantu TXTR products? And then you were using Shea moisture shampoo, and then something else. Same with switching conditioners? Is it best to switch around to diff products? Also, help! I've been using beloved bioterra but I'm finding it doesn't leave a cast AT ALL aanymore? Should I switch to something else? Lots of questions. Sorry!
❤️❤️ So friggin' pretty, Susie! I absolutely LOVE the half up, half down. Thank you for this!
I love your videos bcz you are so honest. I was feeling overwhelmed with my CG routine. Now I’m more confident. I live in Ireland where is so humid and windy then my hair stays so frizzy and crazy. I did my researches and found out glycerin can be the biggest enemy of frizzy hair. My hair is short on my neck, it has high porosity, is not fine or thick, it is medium. I’d like to know which products can be good for me. I bought Kérastase aura botanical shampoo, deep cream treatment and leave in, but it has glycerin 😖
I thought I was doing something wrong when my curls just go away after a few days. Mine is pretty much identical to yours. Thank you for this.
OMG! So glad I found you!!! I'm starting to grow out my hair and it's wavy. I've always wondered what curly hair ladies do when you exercise? I exercise 5 days a week and I've been showering every day with shampoo and conditioner. But now I know not to do that. What do you do about scalp sweat? Is there a product you use? Or do you condition your roots in the shower?? Please help!!!
hiiii susie, im from Brazil and i just LOOOVE your videos very hard!!! 🥰🥰🥰
hi i don’t know if anyone will respond but is this a good routine for thin 2b hair?
monday- wash day (regular shampoo, conditioner, and leave in)
tuesday- no wash just refreshable
wednesday- co wash and deep conditioning (leave in conditioner after)
thursday- none just refreshable
friday- co wash
sat&sunday- none
then repeat?
What is your opinion of the Kinky Curly Curling Custard?? Have you tried it?? Does it work for you??
Hi I'm in Texas and I'm a long hair guy my hair is very similar to yours my hair is elbow length 2b 2c your videos are very informative especially as a guy that knows nothing on taming the daily struggle thanks from Texas 😃
Hi Suzy, ur curls look so beautiful, i started following this method after watching ur videos, i have thin, low density curly hair, but they all don't look the same, some are more curly than others n after few hours of washing they start looking frizzy n dry bt if i put too much product after washing, they feel very greasy n nt actual hair. Plz help!
This video was amazing! I always felt bad about my hair not looking UA-cam perfect and craved content for the reality of the refresh
Today is 11 weeks for me using CGM. Your videos have encouraged me - I’ve watched several. So nice to see your refresh methods- more than one! Thanks for all the information and help. Oh- loved the “Elaine” reference, too!
I'm starting out the cg method... I'm so confused abt what products to use... Smh!!
This always seems like so much effort but when I think about it I’d be straightening it or curling it anyway, probably the same amount of time
How long does it take for waves to return after you have used a flat iron for a while, I didn’t straighten totally I just flattened top and waved ends all winter ? I now have a bunch of frizz and look like bozo. I also have been going gray for two years and didn’t realize without color my hair burns more easily so now I have frizz.
I honestly really loved seeing your evaluations of your hair, and the ways you refresh and why. Thank you for making this! And also, I’m pleased to hear you say “toque.” It’s still called that, all the way on the west coast :)
Super useful video!
Mom of 2 and entrepreneur too. Thank goodness we don't have to be bloody perfect everyday! I cannot have my hair in my face. I would love for someone to have an epiphany on how to air dry without the hair in your eye! So I can work in the morning and actually go out at lunch time with reasonable hair.... not still wet kinda crunchy hair.
My curls hold pretty well but I always get tangles especially on the area my hair is thinner and I don’t know how to avoid the most breakages as possible, I am about to try the silk pillow hope for it will help. I love your hair density, mine is too fine...
So I’ve never slept on a silk pillowcase. Is that a must have? And do you slide off of your pillowcase all the time?
I am so glad you did this, I feel like a fraud or like I'm cheating when I tie my hair up but it's good to see that's normal!
Do you have low or high porosity hair? What exactly is the difference in terms of what types of products to use. I notice that if I use too much conditioner too often my hair just gets too soft and frizzy and loses the curl. When I clarify it is much better but it seems I have to clarify often to get desired results.
Thank you, thank you. I have been thinking I am doing everything wrong as I want it to look perfect always. This video inspires me to keep going on the path to my curly hair pattern.
Loved this realistic and in depth video! Our curl patterns are so similar and I relate to how the curl pattern will unintentionally fall out throughout the week. Also I recommend a satin scarf or a bonnet to bed instead of the pineapple.
This is the BEST VIDEO YET!!!!!! We have exactly the same hair. I'm so glad to see someone who has the same hair type, I could relate to everything!. Are you still liking the Briogeo curl cream? Wanting to know if it is holding up to your initial review. Thanks again from New Waterford.
Hey Dian! Thank you so much. I didn’t want to love the Briogeo line as much as I do because it’s WAY too expensive. But I will 100% repurchase the conditioner & creme if it goes on sale. I keep checking Sephora
@@CurlySusie Great video and so informative! Which is your favorite shampoo right now... the Shea moisture? Definitely going to try the Brigio conditioner.
This video was so helpful! Thank you so much! I recently started the curly girl method and was really struggling to find a week routine and this was exactly what I needed! Thank you so much♥️
Love that Lois! My hair is exactly like yours, right down to the straighter bits underneath. Your videos are so helpful. Thanks!
What kind of clip do you use at the back of your hair? I always get that stupid little tail but I don't know what kind of clips to use that won't look ridiculous
I kind of like ur last Sunday hair when u light frizz but it looks kind of fresh and good more than other types
This was so helpful! Relate so much to a lot of this. Thanks sweetie.
Lots of love to you and your loved ones Susie,from South Africa ❤️
What gel would you recommend for someone starting with the curly girl method?
Hey When were are following cgm, when are we supposed to comb or brush our hair?
I am not following the cgm after the video by Manes by Mell. Who else?
Do you brush your hair ? Sounds ridiculous right ? But if I brush my curly hair with a brush it turns to a frizz
Recently started CGM and glad I came across your video 😍
This was a refreshing video. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome demonstration and exactly how my hair days are.👍
Great video your content is very helpful, thank you!
High maintenance method .. once a week flat iron easy and quick
My hair gets tangled a lot and also my hair falls out then. Can anyone help me with this? :(
This is fantastic thanks for this video! I’m just starting to embrace my natural curls and have been so frustrated. I spend so much more time styling my naturally curly hair compared to when I had chemically straightened hair and since I shower at night even when I put my hair up in a pineapple it looks super messy the next day. I guess I need to adjust my expectations a bit 😊
This was a great video! Also loved the background music.
What would you suggest for someone who thought they had straight hair that was just frizzy, a friend said they may have texture. So I started the curly girl method about 4 days ago and it is wavy and messy and still frizzy? Any tips to help my hair find its natural wave/curl pattern?
What makes you choose between gel or mousse when refreshing?
Love it!! So helpful! Thank you so much!!!
