Didn't realise how long you squish to condish... just tried this and my hair looks sooo much better. Thank you Courtney x
Glad I could help!
I see everyone start diffusing from ends to roots but I was told many years ago that doing so dries out the mid shafts to ends so much which is bad. I was told it’s best to start diffusing from roots to ends because by time roots are dry then your mid shaft to ends(oldest hair) won’t need as much heat and time spent diffusing because most mid shafts to ends have air dried while diffusing the roots. So cool blasting is mainly needed on oldest parts of strands which is less damaging!
Thanks for your wise words... I will start trying this out! It makes so much sense!
Maaaybe, but if you’re talking volume, ends-to-mid-shaft (I tried doing it that way before) sure does dry my hair quicker, like a lot quicker, but it looked droopy and flat! That’s my experience.
Watching your videos are so much fun. Thanks for the time you take out of your busy life to educate us about our hair.
Sorry I am just seeing this! But thank you! It's what I love to do!
I'm so jealous!! My wash takes about 20 minutes by itself! Granted, I do wash and shave, but it's so my conditioner can sit. I plop while I get dressed, then it's time to go diffuse for...as long as it takes. I diffuse to 100% dry because I have the opposite problem as you--if I don't, I get frizz! I let it usually sit and cool for about 15 minutes. All in all, if I'm just washing, I plan an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half. I loved seeing this!!
Ahhhhhh, watching this helped me get my best curly hair day yet!!! I was doing squish to condish totally wrong. THANK YOUUU!
it takes me waaaay longer to diffuse my hair. like 40 minutes to an hour. i don’t count air drying time so no it’s not cheating!
Thank you so much!! No matter how many videos I watch, I always learn new information.
Words cannot express how thankful I am to have found you ~
other than being over the moon happy at the clear, thorough, real information on the CGM given in your videos, i also checked out your podcast and literally cried when I found out that you are a Christian as well! This is very encouraging to me, and I am planning to start CGM soon with your advise...maybe while I'm diffusing my hair I can listen to it!!!
Much love and adoration for you, your curls, and your faith ~
You've been such an encouragement to me to not give up on the curly (wavy) girl method! Especially seeing that it doesn't have to take that long. Thank you!! :)
I have to admit that I am def one of those people who wondered if the process was worth it for my own waves lol I appreciate this content. I have definitely incorporated several of your tips!
Loved seeing how much you squished the styling product in!! I do minimum scrunching in because I was always worried I was breaking up my curls
Best ever! I just did what you did and have had my first good wash day since February 1st when I started! Thanks!
Im so happy to see your hair up in a bun. Im day 1 new to this and currently live with my hair up 80% of the time. Hoping this method changes that but still want to be able to do buns and ponytails here and there!
Your makeup looks fantastic! So pretty ❤️
Silly girl, I love you! Yes, I was getting ready to type a comment to ask how long to finish air-drying until you scrunch. I work in a professional setting, and I'm still insecure about embracing my natural 2A hair. On days when I'm going to see customers or upper management, I revert back to using heat (hot rollers, curling or flat iron) on my hair, and I want to completely break the cycle because it keeps setting me back. This was a very helpful video to get me past the phobia of how long this method takes to get ready in the morning for work.
This took much less time than I thought tbh
Interesting isn't it!
Not cheating. Recipes use the term "hands-on time," and that's what you've calculated here.
You’re so cute! Thanks for the video AND I love that you’re using only three products. Girl, I’m so over having product product product.... it really is about keeping it simple.
Be blessed and stay safe
The acrobatics we do to wash and dry our wavy hair hahaha
Helpful for me! I just replaced my over 20yo dryer and got one with a diffuser. Now I’m off to do my wash, but in the shower. I can’t stay bent over for that long. I do, however, after washing my scalp well, let it sit for a minute or two while I wash my face. Then I condition before washing my body, making sure to comb it through. I just need to add in some extra “squish to condish” time before that. I’ll edit and let you know how it worked.
This is my exact routine lol but I use mouse 😛 also I’m too lazy to diffuse so I sit in front of a hot air fan/ electric heater to “diffuse” while I’m on my phone watching UA-cam 😂
I love this! this is fantastic!
lol I sit in front of a fan and diffuse for about 10 mins then finish up in front of the fan. I like to use mouse also but I put some gel on top of it so I have some hold. Im sure im wasting a lot of mouse but I think it works for me.
@@REDSTU1 do you apply the gel wet? I sometimes like glazing over some when it’s dry (I just want the quickest routine possible haha)
this is genious!!! i hate diffusing cause it makes my back hurt, so im trying your method next wash day! 🤗 thanks!
Your eye make up looks amazing today!♥️
I feel the same way! Courtney, please show and/or tell what you use for your eye makeup, please?!
Currently watching while I diffuse with captions hehe
I’m in awe at how fast your hair routine is compared to mine 😭 I have to spend at least 15 minutes detangling (I both dry brush before I get in the shower and have to after my hair tangles from shampooing). If I have the effort to diffused I can hover diffuse AFTER plopping for 30 minutes and I usually give up after the 40 minute mark since there’s rarely any difference between how dry it is before and after.
The fact that she can rake through it while wet before shampoo has always been wild to me. I, too dry brush before the shower and as soon as it gets wet, it's like OKAY EVERYBODY TANGLE TOGETHER QUICK lol!!!
I think her low porosity hair doesn’t tangle as much because the cuticle is laying flat. I have high porosity hair and the tangling is a challenge.
@@jflo2012 my hair is low porosity and it tangles like mad... because of my high density
@@jflo2012 See, I have high porosity hair and have never had tangles when it's curly or straight. I never thought much about tangles until seeing all of the discussion about tangles in CGM groups. If I make it more than 5 days before wash day, I will get some tangles right at the nape of my neck. But, once my hair gets wet, I can just go through them with my fingers pretty easily. It's weird how different hair can be from one person to the next.
YES! All in good fun I did think you were not going to show the ends results😂. You had me going there, lol.
Your hair detangles so easily!!!! I’m jealous
Thank you! Hair goals!
I love your posture when you're washing your hair like HOW
Wow love, so nice to see the real time be so relatable.
How do you prevent your back from burning?!
You are my fave wavy curly UA-cam mentor! 🥰 who would have thought I’d watch someone else wash their hair?! 🤪
Awe thank you!!! But I know right?! lol
Nice routine vid, I'm going to try the Mop Top :) Of course dry time counts ;)
I think my favorite part of the unedited thing is that I can hear your breathing. This really is a workout for you🤣🤣
courtney: this is my wash day routine in real time with no cuts or edits!
me: *sees the video is 19 mins long* what?!?!
Right!? I could never
I am from Austria and I REALLY LOVE watching your videos!! 😍🤩😍🤩
Ya see the thing with my hair is that it takes 40+ minutes just to diffuse my hair
Mine takes forever!
Same. Super thick and super coarse.
My best friend has the same. She has loads, think, very long 3c hair. Takes ages. Im done in 20 mins with my caucasian, fine low density hair....
Just started on my curly journey. Does anyone else have one side that curls beautifully and one side that goes nah! Not playing this game! Driving me insane!
Just sorted out my own problem. In desperation as I was out I grabbed some hand cream and put some on the errant side, smoothed it gently with hands and have it a scrunch. Success!
For me it's the side I sleep on, it's always more frizzy
@@meghananneralph9890 opposite for me 🤷
Hey gorgeous! Waco Tx here. I love your videos and have tried a few routines!
Your hair looks like silk! So pretty!
I am glad you’re using the Mop Top today bc it reminded me to ask a question 🙋🏼♀️ I have about this styling product. I have heard you previously say Mop Top Custard is a nice product. I thought about ordering it on Amazon but it’s ingredient list shows glycerin as the second ingredient.
Do you only use MopTop in the fall during cool days? What’s your experience with it as far as it as being bad with humidity?
Girl your eyeshadow!! 👍👍
Courtney, you inspire me to start wearing my hair curly again. It used to be a breeze to wash and style it when it was shorter, but now it's hip length and just washing and detangling takes 2 hours 😳 So I just keep it in a braid or bun 99% of the time now 😂
I have a couple of formal events coming up, so I would like to "re-train" my curls to look nice again 😌
Man I wish my hair would get soaked in 20ish seconds 😂
Thanks for doing this. I have been waiting for someone to do a routine without edits! I can't believe how much you squish. I am going to try that this week. Can't wait to see the results. ❤
a year later, how does your hair look and feel after squishing?
Girl how did it only take you 10 minutes to wash, condition and put gel in your hair. That takes me like 30 mins and then I have to do my other shower things
I think y'all (you and the other 11 people who liked this comment) are doing it wrong
@@caitlindiel9001 🧐🤨it just takes me longer. You probably don’t understand because from your profile pic, you have straight hair.
Yes, the same. Mine takes 20 minutes only to wash my hair and condition. To save time I put my hair on a bun after I apply conditioner or hair mask and let it there to soften before detangling (which takes 5-10 minutes) while I am washing my body. If I didn't do it I would need 30 minutes. Then product application takes 5-10 minutes and need at least half an hour to diffuse. Having thick, coarse, long, curly hair is so exhausting.
@@caitlindiel9001 Thankfully we aren't paying you to think.
Roxie Doggy my hair is fine but it takes me as long as you bc it’s so tangly
You are so goofy, I love you!♥️
I used to do that when I was a girl, why I stopped doing that??.... now my hair is so sad! But Im starting the curly method!! Im excited 🥰😁😃 Thank you for all your videos.
❤ thank you for this video!
You should try the Rizos Curls line! It doesn't have a gel and i wonder how your hair would look without one!!
This is the 3rd vieo I have watch of yours and I did, I bought the perfect haircare towel.
Thank you for this.. I did hair for 15 years. So feels sooo funny to be looking up how to start doing my hair wavy 😂but!! I didn’t realize how wavy my hair is!! I honestly thought a lot of the wave I had for years, was due to coloring excessively for years and all the heat damage I did to it. Fast forward 6 years of now being a stay at home mom. And no color, no heat damage 98% of the time. And my hair is STILL frizzy and huge and poofy. And due to health issues, I can’t physically do my ‘usual’ routine of blow drying and straightening anymore. So been trying a million methods (not really. Probably like 5) to see what works for my hair. Seeing all the steps you take lets me have ‘aha’ moments of what worked in the past for me, and why* certain things aren’t working for my hair. Thank you 😊 trying this now.
Your hair always looks amazing! And I love your videos too 😊 I left a comment on a video a while ago but realise I need to ask on most recent ones! Anyway, my question is do you dye your hair and if so what would you recommend that is least damaging to hair?
You had me cracking up at the fake ending 😆
My hair is wavy, but the texture is pretty rough underneath for some reason, and is always a tangled mess because of that, it seems. I haven’t found a conditioner that makes my hair soft and untangled easily and quickly! At least not like the days when I used to use silicones. Thats probably going to be the reason I’ll end up going back to them, after several years.
I love your hair, I just started the curly hair process, any tips?
I love this! Really helps me with my process. I'm just starting to do this curly/wavy girl method.. again. I've tried it various times but didn't follow through. I'm just wondering if you have a suggestion for us girls who shower at night time and how to sleep with curls. Should I sleep with wet curls and plop overnight? Also, what should i do if I don't have a diffuser? Or do you have a video for that?
Thank you so much if you read this. Appreciate your time! 😁
This will be cool!
That was great because sometimes I feel like it takes me absolutely forever to do my hair! I really like the one and done styler method especially when I'm short on time which is usually! Hahaha right now I'm having trouble with curl enhancement and hold so I'm not sure I'm ready for a one and done yet...
Just used my Microfiber Towle today. It made such a difference
That diffuser looks amazing! If it us attached to your Dyson how did you do that??
I love your channel and have been following you for quite some time. How did you know to start measuring out a teaspoon for your styler?
Great video
I loved seeing this in real time! Could you tell me the what you used to connect the diffuser to the Dyson blow dryer?
Her partner added magnets to the diffuser since the Dyson blower is magnetic, if I remember correctly
those 10 thumbs down are from the curly girl police 🤣🤣🤣 i find very interesting seeing other people's routines cause im just starting with the CGM and i learn from everyone little bits and pieces and then try it for myself! im having a blast with it and i've learned a lot from you! thank you 💖
You should do another one of these when you use a leave in, a cream, and plop normally and see what the time difference is!
Courtney you mentioned some ingredians wich make your scalp itchy in one of your last videos... what was that? I've been experience this the last time myself and I don't know why 😕
Love your videos by the way! 🥰
I've watched several of your videos and I'm really considering trying this. Can you please give your most current opinion/recommendation of products for a beginner. I have very fine hair that's frizzy after washing, if not blown dry and styled. Thanks!
Loved the video. Would have actually loved to see the diffusing in real time, since I’ve been struggling with it! Some parts dry way more quickly, other parts won’t dry at all and sometimes I have no volume at all, and other days all the volume. I don’t do much different between those days I think.. so I would love to see your process in real time and actually follow along 😁
Curly girl routine took me less time than my “straighting” routine (even for the 1st time).
Courtney, how do you know when use leave- in or not? Depends on how much detangling the conditioner on hair?
I leave the house with crunchy hair all the time! 😄 My daughter has to be at work halfway through the day and sometimes it's just not long enough for it to dry. I air dry more than you did though. I think I air dry to like 75%, diffuse for another 20%, then let that last dampness air dry out.
I appreciate this! And no, not cheating 🥰
What is that adapter you’re using for the black orchid?? 😍😍
I also try to rake the hair off the back of my head but that busts up the curl clumps I have and it is hard to get them back...but if I don't get the hair off the back of my head when I style upside down then when I flip back up the back is a mess! I am not sure if I am still in transition or what...
I would love to try inversion washing/styling but it’s impossible to do w/ my bangs not getting in the way. I style my bangs separate and don’t apply any product on them. I think it’s an impossible task, so I live vicariously through others lol
Wow! I only watched once, but you only rinse conditioner out for ~20 seconds?! I heard you say it kind of disappears in your hair as you s2c, but I’d still expect some more rinse time.
That is something I may try and adjust...
If you use medium heat, how long do you stay in one place while pixie diffusing?
I’m new and actually would love a video of how to diffuse and what I need to do so.
Diffusing alone takes me 40+ minutes, on medium heat, high to medium speed. I sit on the floor and read.
Thanks for sharing your hair wash routine. I actually let my hair air dry for a couple hours, then I diffuse for 20 mins.... its never 100% dry after I diffuse, but enough to scrunch out the crunch... I had my second deva cut 2 days ago and the stylist actually dries my hair from wet.... but my hair turned into a frizz ball within 30 mins after I left the salon... I don't think it was completely dry... Oh well, I might do a wash day tomorrow lol Love to try new products and techniques. Not found yet what works best fo rme, so always enjoy your videos. I would much prefer a wash and go type of wash day... but that won't happen with curly hair lol
I have very high density low porosity hair and you were ready to dry at 10 minutes and that BLOWS MY MIND
Same girl, and it really is crazy the difference heat and speed makes. I tried to diffuse my hair on low heat, low speed, and 45 mins in my hair is still as wet as when I started. So I decided to listen to what I’ve heard on this channel and I can get to about 75% dry in 20 mins. Life changing!
@@baozi5536 like if I add up an estimate my time minus airdry is 1h45min plus 2 hr airdry makes the total time before I can live life almost 4 hrs
@@imyourhappydrug oooh yeah, I commented on a Lus video where the girl diffuses her wavy hair in like...seconds lol and I couldn’t believe it. Lus replies, do you plop? That might help...I was like yeah, I actually plop twice bc the first one is soaked through so I plop again with a fresh dry one 😂 they didn’t reply again haha
It looked like you used both the Black Orchid and the Dyson diffuser during your diffusing. If so, why? Do you use them for different things? I am considering getting a Dyson but I love my Black Orchid and I'm not sure if I will like the Dyson diffuser.
Your hair is so shiny mine is justtttt curly enough to where it doesn’t have too much shine😪
How often do you recommend to do this wash routine? This is pretty much the same routine I do but I've just started the curly girl method and I would normally do this every day 🙊 I haven't washed my hair in 4 days other than rinsed in water, applied conditioner and diffused with extra conditioner X
starting around month 5 of CGM I now shed a lot less hair. So now a year and a half later I barely shed mcuh hair. I think its because my hair is healthy now
It takes me like 25 minutes just to wash my hair 😐😭
Same here
It will get faster!
If I diffuse for 10-15 mins it takes 3-6 hours to dry even if I don’t use gel. Do you think a better blowdryer would help or does it have to do with my hair porosity?
How often do you wash your hair and between washing do you keep adding products? My second day hair is, most of the time, full of frizz.
I ❤ your videos and you! But... I have coarse hair. Do you have any coarse hair wavy channels to recommend? P.S. You're still my fave 😘
NO...not at all. The air dry is different for everyone and I thought this video was wonderful. Thank you so much for demonstrating I'm not the only one who looses hair in the shower. LOL. Well you got me I thought it was over. Your curls are gorgeous and you were one of the first curlies I started following. I forgot without having to take a deep dive what is the density and porosity of your hair? I think mine are 2b and my porosity is low and density is I have no clue. LOL ;)
I have been binge watching your channel. What are your favorite drug store products and stylers? Thanks 😊
Out of curiosity, ever timed how long it takes to dry your hair using anything other than a Dyson? I keep reading how they dry hair faster than pretty much anything else. I'm thinking that's how you managed to diffuse in a bit over 10 minutes while it takes all of us much longer. I usually quit at around 20 minutes because of my wrists and shoulders and at that point it's maybe 80% or so dry.
Hi can you do a best deep conditioning video? I’m thinking of getting the Jesicurl one but wanted to hear what you think. Thanks!!!
Oh my goodness I love the Jessicurl deep conditioner!! amzn.to/3eRQbQR
I have several deep conditioners that I really do enjoy, but that one is a great one to start with period
@@SwavyCurlyCourtney thank you for replying!!! I’ll definitely be buying that one then thanks!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Hey I've been searching for "aloe free" curly girl approved products and I came across a brand called Im bue from the UK, was wondering if you'd try that out in one of your wash days? I really love your videos and style of doing them, I also ADORE your curls (really hope mine can go back to looking like that) my hair was wavy ringlets when I was a teenager until I chemically straightened it (my bad) now it's fried from bleach in June and lots and lots of hair straightening with straightening irons - really trying to get it healthy again and I just LOVE your curls. I have wavy hair anywhere from 2b-3A I'd say but it's obviously a big huge mess now, hoping I can get my hair to grow out fast so I can continue on a clean slate lol
It takes me like 20 mins just to shower, then usually I plop for half hour. Diffusing actually goes pretty quick for me, maybe 10-15 mins, which is strange cause when I blow dry my hair straight it takes me 40+ mins. Then I let it air dry some and scrunch out the crunch. But my hair is a mess on day 2 so I either have to wear in a bun or start all over again.
I have such baby fine strands that micro towels and t shirts remove too much water BUT I do find paper towels work great for my fine strands. A trick I been using for years!!
Your hair is very pretty
I feel like the original Dyson is reducing your diffusing time. I heart you saying in previous videos that you diffused for 30 minutes.
Is that true or did you change your diffusing routine to a more efficient way? I noticed that diffusing is slightly different from your diffusing video.
Wondering, do you exclusively wash/apply product upside-down? My hair really doesn't like upside-down washes or product application, and always ends up settling in the weirdest way when I flip right side. I have to do everything standing and the results seem to differ dramatically than if I were able to do everything upside-down.
Hi, have you any advice... I love upside down styling but I have very fine hair that naturally clumps when I style upside down. Issue is, when I turn my head right side up, my hair (the little I have lol) is stuck to my head and it’s mess at the back. But upside down styling is great for curl clumps and definition but I get a messy bit at the back. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I wish I could do that! We have super similar hair, but somehow I need to diffuse for 30 mins on medium heat in order to get to 90% dry :(
I always get my hair tangled with the scalp brush 😣
