Wow you've been working out Suzie you look amazing and I love your hair, def going to buy Bioterra! Another way to get lots of curly volume after applying gel is to bend over in front of a tower fan on cool temp keeping it on low (less frizz) until its dry, no clipping up required! ❤ You get lots of volume w lifted up curls!
Biotera is the only gel that works for me... and believe me, I have tried MANY others but I always go back to Biotera. I've been using it for years now because of your recommendation. I live in North Central Texas and it works best for me all year long! Thank you ❤️
I just bought some and I live in the same area as you. I haven’t tried it yet because the thinner consistency kinda scares me! My hair is more on the wavy side and I love to finger coil my hair and I am worried it won’t hold. I think this is my sign!
Wow, really miss your curly hair videos. Love your techniques. Your hair has grown and look fantastic. I too love and use Biotera gel. Keep the videos coming.👍🥰
My basic routine is so similar to yours! My hair is a little longer (shoulder length/collar bone & layered ) In shower on wet hair: leave in or curl creme followed by gel, plop, air dry a little then top with mousse & diffuse. After experimenting I found that hard hold gels were too heavy for my hair type & that I had to change my styling products in the Summer vs the Winter. Where I live we have wet winters & very dry summers. Good to see you back & your hair looks great!
Thanks again Suzie for a great short clear video. I find Bioterra not strong enough to hold my curls and prevent frizz. However, I think I may need to back off some of my curl cream or just go with my leave in conditioner and gel. I do like Ouidad Heat and Humidity gel in the hot humid weather of summer. My hair is fine and thin with a fair amount of gray so I am still figuring out the best combos for me. The Tre Luxe line has won me over but I have so much Bioterra gel on hand I want to also find the best combo using it as well. The styling techniques you demo'd are really good. I have heard that breaking a cast with some hair oil is helpful to seal in the moisture..or using before applying gel ...still playing around with best approach for me. Thx again.
Hi Helen I’d go less cream & a harder hold gel or mousse. Hair oil NEVER works for me… even just to break the cast. It gives me a ton of frizz for some reason so just keep that in mind. Thank you for watching. ❤️
Susie have you tried letting your hair air dry all going back off your face? I do this and hover dry to set my hair so it will stay back and then when it has dried completely fluffy and let it fall where is wants.....left or right. I get height and interest with the hair falling because of the curl clump pattern. I also only use the bowl method with the mousse or gel plus conditioner and water it is easy peasy and I get great curl clumps and then I plop in a micro fiber turban. You have more curl then wave IMHO plus I only use those two products as well best results......THANK YOU!!!♥
Based on your recommendation from a previous video I bought Bioterra gel and I concur-it is a great product. I had just about given up on gels but am so glad I gave this one a try. It not only holds great; it also gives me a bit of volume, which my fine and thinning curly hair needs. Thank you!
Haven’t been able to find that mousse in my province for a month or two. Started using the Biotera gel on your recommendation and it is a great product!
THANK YOU! I’ve learned a LOT through your videos since i started to take care my curls! The only thing it doesn’t work for me is the Biotera gel, it straights my hair! 🤷🏻♀️ otherwise, all the recommendations are spot on it for my hair. Ciao! 😎🙋🏻♀️ Thanks again! How are the kids, in University already? 😂
Oh, I thought something was going to happen at the end, like you were going to dive into the pool after all that careful hair styling!😂 Your hair and bod looks GORGEOUS. 🤩
Hi Suzie! Love that you’re back! I’ve been using Bioterra gel since the first time you recommended it, it’s absolutely the best gel! You look amazing and healthy!
Hello, Lyndsay! I left this comment for Susie and maybe you can help me too! Thanks 🌟 I've been buying that gel for two years now because you recommended it and honestly it's everything. Now I see that it's owned by Zotos and not Naturelle, I don't know if it's the same company with a different name. Also, I noticed that in this new version by Zotos they changed the formula, I know it because I have the two versions and I can compare them directly. In the Zotos version the perfume is like the 9th ingredient on the list, and in the Naturelle version is the last one. You can definitely smell the difference. I was wondering if the new Zotos version has given you the same or better/worse results?
Really helpful. Have you ever tried only curls London, have just started using it. Use to innersense, so a big learning curve. My hair is very similar to yours but nearly totally white x
Thanks for the video! Love it! I’ve not had as much luck with clumping right out of the shower as it creates a lot of really flat roots. Do you have any recommendations for breaking up the clumps to account for let’s say… 2 “layers” of hair? Like the top of the head through the crown as one layer and the bottom half as the second layer, just to get them off the scalp more? Thanks!
Thank you for this! I’m going to try your technique next time I wash my hair! I use a tiny bit of ag recoil curl activator and the same gel and mouse but not the same technique.

Hi Isabel It’s the same company. Zotos Professionals makes lots of products & product lines. I didn’t notice that the new gel is any different in my hair even though the formula is slightly different. So to answer your question, I’ve been getting the exact same results. They also make the same gel in a “hypoallergenic” version… that one, I don’t like for some reason 🤷🏻♀️
I went thru so many gels and now they just sit half empty in my cabinet because I finally broke down and bought the biotera gel and now I'm never going back.
Trust me, my hair (it's over my bum long) looks different than in my picture most days, but I stopped spending so much time on my hair. Just wash, towel dry, detangle, apply stylers, done. I don't adhere to any method, I just do my thing and go for less time spent on it. Done.
I don't know why but that mousse has never been sold in New Zealand, and I've looked so often! Actually we don't get a single one of the products you used here.... très frustrating! But the principles stand, and as always - nice to see you again!
I am in the States and that mousse is almost never in stock. I did notice they now have a gel that has the same name, so they may have changed it now...
I absolutely do not have room for one more product. I also know the next time I’m near Sally’s I’m getting the gel. It’s a shame because their moisture curl cream was my HG.
Biotera gel is medium hold. I find that it has enough hold to control my frizz and give my waves some pretty definition. However, the cast is easy to scrunch out! This is a big plus for me. Biotera is my fav gel I've tried so far.
Just curious about keeping your face clean after putting all your products on like that. My face is pretty sensitive and I fear that if my hair is touching my face after products have been applied I will break out like crazy... I do like how you detangled and put your product on though.
Good to see you susie😊😊 i'm korean. And I'm following your method. Thx always.. The biotera gel is super good to me😉 but I have a question. How do you care your scalp? My scalp is recently itchy and flaky since I've been doing culry girl method.. I thought I changed my shampoo was the problem. I guess.. Not sure. Changed shampoo is weak acid. Weak acid..? I don't know if the word choice is correct.. Please read it considering my English skills. ☺️ Anyway i wanna know how to care your scalp. Always be happy with your family. Love u🥰
Currently using Silk Essence olive conditioner. In Canada, it was on sale for $6 at Sally Beauty. Great for my hair, just need better shampoo since Silk Essence's is too harsh. Got a recommendation for affordable shampoo?
I was having scalp issues (itchy, flaky) too but recently I found some scalp creams and serums for itchiness that don't cause your hair to look greasy and stop the itch and make it smell nicer. If you're greasy instead you can probably get a curly girl approved dry shampoo.
Does the glycerin in bioterra gel create more frizz? I have wavy hair and find the bioterra isn’t as good as the rock hard biosilk for my wavy course frizzy hair that is salt and pepper.
Lol, I just tried this and looked like a drowned rat coming out of the shower. I usually apply my products after I'm out of the shower, but tried it this way tonight. The biggest issue I had was putting way too much product in my hand to apply, especially the biotera. Im waiting for it to dry now, so I shall see if it makes a difference or not.
Hi, I am new to your channel and kinda new to Curly methods. I keep getting frustrated and return to flat ironing, but I am trying again. I think I get frustrated by the amount of products needed, & just want a simple routine. Your method looks do able. Have you ever used Aloe Vera? What do you think about it?
Hey! I’m growing out a short haircut & I don’t get a “curly cut” specifically. I just get blunt trims (no thinning out or texturizing especially my ends) and a couple of long bluntly cut layers. It just gives me the shape I want & my curls don’t clump well when my hair is thinned/textured
Devacurl has reformulated and released most of their lines so curlies can relax a bit and maybe stop attacking / canceling this company and the people who use its products.
Hey Theresa… do you know what changes they made? Did the company agree that there may have been something wrong with their formula for a few years?? I have no idea & I’m very curious

Susie, would love a video on bar shampoo and conditioner!
I just love how down to earth you are and how accessible your hair routine is ❤️ Thank you so much for this video. I can’t wait to try that gel.
As always, thank you for coming back & being you.
I needed some motivation to switch up my curl routine since I get lazy with it in the hot weather, so I appreciate the video!
Great to see you back! Thanks for sharing your summer method
Good video and great to have you back 😊

@@lindsaycameron1789 I use quite a bit...like Susie showed in her video. It's a single styler product for me. Hope you like it too!
Thanks Susie for the simple, easy to understand routine. And girl, your arms are rockin! 💪
I love your accent. I walk around practicing my Nova Scotia voice.
So glad to see you!! Its like seeing a long lost friend. Hope all is going well with you and your family
You’re still my favorite CG! So glad you’re making videos again. You look beautiful too!

Looking amazing Susie! Btw, how hard hold is the Biotera gel? I love hard, crunchy hold. 😁

This popped up and I was happy 2 see your video. I am here for the hair, but umm...I need to know your exercise regimen. Wow, perfect lean muscle
I prefer to diffuse, it gets a nice shape like you got!

It's interesting that your hair is tighter when you air dry! I definitely don't find that to be the case for my hair, water weighs me down.
Thank you so much! I'm going to try adding in the mousse during the summer. I love Bioterra gel also.
Going to try the bioterra no alcohol gel
Your hair is beautiful! Thanks for sharing the updated routine!
I can attest to this gel being your favorite for forever!! I own it bc of your suggestion actually

Just loves your narration ♥️
Thank you again Suzie! Big thumbs up.
Thank you for another great video! You look awesome!!
Yay! You look amazing n I love you! ❤️ u ROCK!
Thank you! I struggle with my bangs. Do you have any tips on that I have a side bang. You look fabulous thanks again
I went thru so many gels and now they just sit half empty in my cabinet because I finally broke down and bought the biotera gel and now I'm never going back.
Headed to the shower to try this!🤞
Love your videos Susie!!
Was excited to see a new video. Long time subscriber.
Thanks for the video 😁 you look awesome 🤩 you have to tell me your workout routine 💗🤗
Thanks so much. What are your thoughts about the new formulation of Biotera Styling Gel with castor oil as a main ingredient?
Have you ever had the problem with Bioterra gel leaving white residue on the hair?
Nice to see you, Susie!
I need to try this out thank you for this helpful video

Me too. I find I do better doing a very light shampoo to my scalp mid week coating my ends with conditioner to moisturize them
Like this gel but have to be careful because of glycerin have to combine

Do you get the same results from the new Biotera gel formula as the old formulation?
(I liked the old ingredients better myself)
I love the HE mousse....been having trouble finding it lately 😔
Same here…hope the mousse will be back on shelves soon.
I think the mousse has been discontinued :(
Can you please offer a suggestion for a comparable mousse!? Thx!!
I have such a finicky scalp (yes I put my hair up last days especially), but I have to weekly shampoo or else I run into a world of trouble.

Is the totally twisted mousse alcohol free ? Also is it cg friendly
I went to buy Bioterra again the other day & noticed the formula has changed. (Different order of ingredients mainly). Have you tried the new formula?
Lol, I just tried this and looked like a drowned rat coming out of the shower. I usually apply my products after I'm out of the shower, but tried it this way tonight.
