Hi I always watch your videos, I been doing CGM for nearly s year and I really wanna stick with it but I’ve noticed my hair is hugely thinner than before I started, it’s getting really bad, I remember seeing a video of yours a while ago saying ‘is the CGM making my hair fall out’ I wondered If it got better, I’m so close to giving up but I really don’t want to 😔 xxx
I love it, I’ve never damp styled cause my hair is so frizzy and also when I scrunch it causes frizz, but your hair turned out beautiful I’m literally gonna do it now xxx
Hi Swavy, You're fantastic and I love your videos, but it would be wonderful if people in the curly girl community didn't promote products with known carcinogens in them that are also bad for the environment and wildlife after it washes down the drain. The CurlTalk gel has PLASTIC in it, not to mention artificial fragrance that may also be carcinogenic. The ingredient "Acrylates/C10 30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer" is a petrochemical. That brand needs to clean up their act! I'm hoping we women can demand these corporations make healthier products for us, and not push us into cancer risk territory. Let's find beautifying products that are truly natural and not green-washed.
SOOO timely! I'm only about two weeks into learning about my curls and it's you and India as my only subscribed teachers!! I think I'm curious how you feel your results diff with this method and if it'll alter anything you do. :-)
I’m currently on my honeymoon and don’t have strong enough WiFi to watch RUclips videos, but I can’t wait to watch this when I get home😻💛 I’m honored !!!!
Fun fact: Playa means beach in Spanish! So it’s like a beachy waves sea salt spray! So excited to see this, I also am always trying to achieve India’s volume and bounce!
GORGEOUS!!! Seems like you may have a finer texture than India just by how shiny (beautiful & healthy) your hair looks. Thanks for showing us that India's method WORKS for you too!!! I think your hair looks MORE voluminous using this method; seems like a time saver too!!
I love that you tried someone else's routine! I think it is good to see someone trying multiple different ways and seeing how that person's hair responds. One of ManesbyMel would be awesome!
I have severe issues with my neck and I could not do the completely upside down in the shower and drying and styling. This up right one would be how I would do it. Glad to see you in a video. Thank you
Courtney Ive been having terrible trouble with my scalp showing while doing the CGM because of how thin and fine my hair is. I had to choose between awesome curls but scalp showing or a frizzy mess and no scalp showing, denman styling was the only way to hide my scalp but it just left the curls/waves looking crap. I just tried this after watching your video and I'm absolutely over the moon with my hair! Thanks so much to you and India. This will be my hairstyle from now on 🤗
Alopecia is a gut problem..wormout with wormworm and take one pill of acidophilus....improve your diet ..eat real food ..fresh meats fish salads and fruits and a little rice..take multivitamin..drink an apple cider vinegar tablet.. and real olive oil
oh my goodness, both y'all are so pretty and have such beautiful hair!! You guys have such different beauty, but ugh, you're so prettyyyy!! Also, I've been meaning to say this for so long on your channel but never did, but speaking of beauty, you're sooo gorgeous without makeup!!
I love your shower girl. Your videos helped me a lot with embracing my waves/curls, only started my CG journey properly 2 weeks ago and it's all thanks to your channel.
I LOVE how this turned out. I'm a newbie -- literally only weeks into this process and I so enjoy your videos. I have to tell you that as a sixty-year-old woman I am constantly amused by you. I wanted you to know that you probably have a really varied audience. I just love you, and your approach and your attitude and your candor. Believe me, it was hard news to bear to discover that my hair may take as long as 6 or more months to really reveal it's wavy/curly structure. I will persevere. Thanks for the support and guidance.
The most recent routine I've tried it is Type of Beautiful " Top down curls method" and wow I'm on day 3 and my hair is still defined and my clumpage is crazy good. Please try it my hair barely makes it to day 3 but after trying her routine. I'm fallen in love with my hair!
It turned out great! Been doing Curly for over a year and Not Your Mothers original shampoo should be a staple for everyone. I like to use when I want my curls to last a long time, 3-day weekend trips to 5-6 day trips. It sets the curls better. Maui products are also a staple, no matter what products everyone reviews we all use Maui! Quantity depends on hair volume. I have shorter hair so never use the handfuls that long haired girls need. Use what YOU need. Even though I have my routine down, still watch new vids now + then.
Love it! I wanted to try India's routine for quite some time because I think my hair is very similar to her's. But I couldn't really find her routine anywhere from the beginning to the end. So thank you, I will try it out now. As for your next video, India tried Spisha's routine and I would love you to try it too. You can find it on India's channel.
So beautiful. Your curls turned out great! I’m totally doing this! I absolutely am in love with the Sally’s value brand conditioner balm. It’s heaven. And I can’t believe I’ve never heard of mixing the masks before. That’s a fantastic idea.
Both you and India have been such a massive help and inspiration to me. It's much harder to find good information for wavy hair, as so much of it is aimed as much tighter curls & coily hair, and is just too heavy for wavy hair. I had my 2b hair perfectly sussed after years of perfecting it, then peri-menopause hit, and my curls completely changed. I'm having to re-learn all over again what my hair needs now to make my curls bouncy & curly again. I thought it was just a fact I was going to have to accept, until I saw your moisture protein video, and realised my hair was suffering from protein overload. It doesn't need anywhere near as much protein anymore, so now I've switched my protein conditioner for protein free conditioner, and my hair is slowly becoming much softer & my curls have gone nuts and look more like 2c curls now!!!! I can't thank you enough for all your videos, it's made a massive difference to my confidence, being able to return my mop of very long, copper curls to it's full glory. My hair has been a huge part of my ideantity, so I felt like I was loosing myself when my curls went dry, coarse & almost staight. Thanks to youtubers like you & India, I feel like the outside of me, looks like me again, and I'm so greatful.
I'm on month 7 or so and I'm finally starting to have a more consistent wave pattern. Your videos have helped me a lot! I used to put heat on some parts of my hair almost every day so I still have some heat damage in some areas even though I chopped it, but I'm excited because I know it can only get better from here!
Definitely Manes by Mell! I love her so much, and she gets really into the science portion of things like you do so, I think you would enjoy her a lot.
Watching you ministers to my soul. You exhibit the fruits of the spirit on a consistent basis. I suspect it’s why so many people keep coming back for your videos...but they prolly don’t know it. Hehe... Also- I think an attempt at a big hearty India Batson laugh would’ve been epic!!
Jennifer Zapienn I make mine at home. Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon epsom salt in 1 cup hot distilled water. Let cool. Pour into a spray bottle. Add 10 drops lavender essential oil for a nice scent. Spray generously all over. Scrunch well. Let dry. It dries stiff. Don’t panic. Scrunch well again until the stiffness is gone. Might try 1/4 teaspoon next time since it is quite drying. Only tried it with epsom salt so far. Can use Himalayan Sea Salt. Not regular salt.
I love it! I think the main difference I see between her hair and yours after the same routine is that her haircut layers the top and back of her hair a _lot_ more, which makes it look way more layered and way more voluminous. Yours is mostly the same length, which is why, especially from the back, it looks flatter. Great video!
I love your ash blonde hair. Looks very healthy!! Enjoy it while you're young. Mine used to be that color, now its going gray. LOL. Your hair came out great!.
I’ve been doing a modified cgm ( I don’t follow all the rules) for close to a year and a half but it seems like every season change I have to use different products to keep getting good results.
How funny I recently started taking tips from her hair routine lol. I’ve tried to brush style soooo many times and her hair routine made me realize that my hair wants to clump naturally and the brush breaks them up
I've been trying right side up styling for a couple weeks now and it seems to work out so great for me. Now I'm excited to try damp styling next wash day. Great video and great results! Beautiful!
I see a lot of people have already said ManesByMel and I agree! Her curl pattern is way tighter than yours is so idk how that'd work, but she did a video styling her cousins' wavy hair and they turned out great.
I tried this wash day! It was amazing!! I have been doing curly girl for 3 months and was about to give it up. Today I was so happy with how everything came out. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Courtney! I love the volume you got from this routine. My hair is very similar to India's. Could you please link the video with India's routine you used as inspiration? I'd like to watch it as well! Thanks xoxo
I love her but most of her advice is for a curlier hair type. She recently did do her cousins hair that they thought was straight but turns out they had wavy hair!
I love her a lot, and I don't follow the curly girl method, and neither does she. But a lot of people on this channel follow the cgm, so mell isn't the best. Mell uses sulfates and silicones, so Courtney wouldn't do a video. BUT I REALLY REALLY LOVE HER TOO!!
@ Keira Kate and Michelle Young she actually has a really interesting wavy tutorial with the denman brush on her cousins and it looks great on them! Also, even though Mell isn’t CG, she has been making a switch in products lately to more natural and cg options! I’m sure she can recommend some good ones to Courtney. I really hope she tries Mell’s rutine!
I clicked so fast. This is so gorgeous on you! :D I would love to see you do other routines. I don't have anyone in particular but I'll watch no matter who's routine you do. :)
This was so interesting to watch all the different permutations & combinations of someone else's washday! Definitely will try the mix of a moisturing and a protein DC on my next one.
Love it ! I think it would be pretty awesome and maybe a little bit funny if you tried the Laura Method. The one with handfuls of leave in and gel. Lol.
I’ve been wanting to try the “ not your mothers “ hair products but I’m afraid India’s routine would be too moisturizing for my hair. Your hair looks fab as always though!
The whole line is actually really high in protein and the conditioner isn't too heavy. The gel didn't have enough hold for me, but I love all the rest!
I've been doing NYM Naturals for several months except for their conditioner and I love it all. But I agree that all of that stuff seems soooo moisturizing.
I recently read that heavy products have like 10 butters/oils in the ingredients while lighter products have no more than 5. So if you're really concerned just look at the ingredients and count the moisturizing ingredients
Such a fun video! It was so interesting to see your results doing it so different to how you normally style! Cute swimsuit too! Also, thought it was adorable that you make videos discussing super complexly named ingredients, but had trouble pronouncing "Playa". lol
Wow that's a lot of moisture. My hair is high porosity wavy 2b-3a and if I used conditioner, masks and rinse with cold water I would have greasy stringy curls. It would be ok because each day I find my hair gets drier and drier but it is a terrible disappointment to have such lackluster curls on day 1/day 2 that it only happens occasionally. Hopefully the protein in the mask will help balance all that moisture.
India's hair is more " crazy" for sure like mine, ie, doesnt look exactly polished when brushed out . Indias hairvgets more like cotton candy( mine too) while yours is totally presentable brushed out. You're both pretty and fun to watch. But you're my fave of all the wavy girls.
Now, I know India is not as strict w/ Curly Girl, however you are, so how do you feel using the two masks that are not CG approved? 😳 I think your hair turned out great ~ ☺️
I do something similar to indias routine during the week; not brushing my hair once out of the shower, just taking it out of the towels and glazing/scrunching cream/gel in, and air drying. Its easy and fast, gives a looser wave (2b) On the weekend ill define my curls individually with a Denman brush and diffuse, gives more defined curls (2c) but is definitely more work!
ManesbyMel please. I feel like India is a wonderful person but she's heavily sponsored by NYM...ever since she dropped Deva. I own the entire NYM line and its just not my jam. It tends to leave white flakes and residue all over. Plus my hair doesn't last longer than 4 hours.
Yessss, same thing it does to my hair. I have really hoped it workout because the prices and the ingredients are good ....however the residue Nope 👎🏽 I’m done with that mess
I've actually heard it is better to diffuse until almost dry, and then let air dry the rest of the way. Supposedly helps shine! But obviously you have no problem with that!😍
I was always told to apply deep conditioners after shampooing. No rinse out conditioners between shampoo and deep conditioner because rinse out conditioners can leave oils and butters in your hair. Making the deep conditioner not penetrate as good into strands.
I've even using Shea Moisture and Cantu products. My hair isn't crunch ( I'm glad). Maybe I'm not using enough 🤔 I'm thinking I should have got these products too. Your hair is gorgeous sweetheart!
I’m a Master Cosmetology Instructor if you would do few long layers at ends to remove some weight off your hair it would curl better. India’s hair is processed therefore porous making her hair curl better 😊
I really enjoyed this video. I did not know who India was before this. Nice to see you washing your hair right side up. This would be a great series ➡ trying other you tubers curly hair routines.
I found you from her. You both are super. I have taken things from you both. I have hair closer to yours and have been using Pattern lately and it works wonders. Please give it a try.
I have been trying her styling method.. I had a couple times it turned out ok. I’m starting to think her hair is more of a 3a & the way she styles makes it a 2c. Bc I thought I was a 2b, but looking at my 18 yr old daughter w my hair who has wore natural for 4 yrs, I def have a 2c. I’m new.. & her way for me ends up w smooth hair, but very stringy OR very frizzy from so much flipping & the damp styling.. Not sure what I did the days it turned out great..
I damp style mine but I microplop to towel dry and encourage my clumps then add products with praying hands instead of scrunching at end with a towel which would just rub my products off x
That was such a fun video! I watch her channel too, and I am so glad India shared her routine with you so you could show us how it works on a different type of wavy/curly hair. I can't wait to try the double mask!❤🙂
I love it! Too bad nothing works for me.. my hair gets so mad if I do anything but comb it once and carefully apply products. I get wet friz sooooo badly and lose my curls if I touch it too much!
Thank you so much for watching this video! Tell me, what do you think about how this washday turned out? My goodness I sure loved it!
Hi I always watch your videos, I been doing CGM for nearly s year and I really wanna stick with it but I’ve noticed my hair is hugely thinner than before I started, it’s getting really bad, I remember seeing a video of yours a while ago saying ‘is the CGM making my hair fall out’ I wondered If it got better, I’m so close to giving up but I really don’t want to 😔 xxx
I love it, I’ve never damp styled cause my hair is so frizzy and also when I scrunch it causes frizz, but your hair turned out beautiful I’m literally gonna do it now xxx
I think that this is one of my favorite washdays you have done, in terms of how it looks.
Hi Swavy, You're fantastic and I love your videos, but it would be wonderful if people in the curly girl community didn't promote products with known carcinogens in them that are also bad for the environment and wildlife after it washes down the drain.

Yes can you please try Courtney’s routine!!
Congrats on your nuptials!! Have a superb time!!!
Congrats India! You were absolutely gorgeous in the photos you shared!
IndiaBatson awe congratulations girl! Wishing u both many years of happiness
🤗🤗🤗
We need India to try your routine now.
Right?!
That would be so fun!
yess
Attn @Indiabatson
My daughter was very confused as to why you have clothes on in the shower. HAHA! The innocence of a 3-year-old.
Fun fact: Playa means beach in Spanish! So it’s like a beachy waves sea salt spray! So excited to see this, I also am always trying to achieve India’s volume and bounce!
Being a wavy myself, you and India have been my go-to for advices. Lots of love to both of you ❤️
GORGEOUS!!! Seems like you may have a finer texture than India just by how shiny (beautiful & healthy) your hair looks. Thanks for showing us that India's method WORKS for you too!!!

Ann Weissinger or Mel’s seester!
@@monas.6839 yes! That would be awesome.
I wanna see you do curly cailin's "full wash day routine for maximum volume-curly hair" video she posted about 4 months ago. PLEASE!!! 😊❤
Have great time with your hair curly
Looks great! Is it weird that it seemed so strange to see you in the shower right side up? I am so used to seeing you bent over your tub!!
Buahaha! I kinda felt weird with the different filming set up. I'm glad I was not the only one it seemed different to! haha
I have severe issues with my neck and I could not do the completely upside down in the shower and drying and styling. This up right one would be how I would do it. Glad to see you in a video. Thank you
Courtney Ive been having terrible trouble with my scalp showing while doing the CGM because of how thin and fine my hair is.

Omg same here with the scalp trouble! I was afraid I was going bald all of a sudden. 😱😭 will try this routine & see if it helps.
Alopecia is a gut problem..wormout with wormworm and take one pill of acidophilus....improve your diet ..eat real food ..fresh meats fish salads and fruits and a little rice..take multivitamin..drink an apple cider vinegar tablet.. and real olive oil
Check Gena marrie channel, she has has mating techniques for her low density coarse hair
oh my goodness, both y'all are so pretty and have such beautiful hair!! You guys have such different beauty, but ugh, you're so prettyyyy!! Also, I've been meaning to say this for so long on your channel but never did, but speaking of beauty, you're sooo gorgeous without makeup!!
I LOVE how your eyes pop with that color t shirt!
I think the sea salt sprays make a big difference. I almost always use one, adds texture and definition. Glad to see you tried one!
@@christinaobert5664 Same!
I love your shower girl. Your videos helped me a lot with embracing my waves/curls, only started my CG journey properly 2 weeks ago and it's all thanks to your channel.
Your hair looks very pretty here, but my favorite so far is when you used the Curlsmith In Shower Fixer. 💜
Ok! I’m gonna do it! Thank you so much. It really helps to see someone copy India because it proves it works! 💕
Yessss a crossover of my two favorite wavy hair influencers!! And I love how it turned out on you, I think you should style this way more often!
i really like the way your hair turned out! you definitely have some Batson vibes in your waves. good vid.
Like it is crazy to me how shiny your curls and waves are mine are always dull and I have really dark hair. You lucky lady!!!
India loves NYM deep conditioning and masques. Thanks to her I love NYM apple masque and blood orange masque.
Love the way it came out! I think India is pretty, but you are so natural and real. That’s what I love most about watching your videos.
I LOVE how this turned out. I'm a newbie -- literally only weeks into this process and I so enjoy your videos. I have to tell you that as a sixty-year-old woman I am constantly amused by you.

You and India (and India’s mom who is more my age) are my favorites to follow!..maybe because your hair types are close to mine. Loved this video!!!
You have such beautiful, shiny, healthy looking hair, so I believe that any routine you try would come out lovely!
Oh My Goodness! My two favorite RUclipsrs!!!! Love this!!
So beautiful. Your curls turned out great! I’m totally doing this! I absolutely am in love with the Sally’s value brand conditioner balm. It’s heaven. And I can’t believe I’ve never heard of mixing the masks before. That’s a fantastic idea.

I LOVE how your hair turned out! Y'all are two of my favorites!! I know India loves that beach spray, so I've really been wanting to try it :)
Sea salt spray makes my hair insanely curly, like going from 2b/2c up to 3b-3c spirals. I love it! Just wish the salt was not so drying.
What sea salt spray do use? because I find the one that I have makes my hair feel sticky
Jennifer Zapienn I make mine at home. Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon epsom salt in 1 cup hot distilled water. Let cool. Pour into a spray bottle. Add 10 drops lavender essential oil for a nice scent. Spray generously all over. Scrunch well. Let dry. It dries stiff. Don’t panic. Scrunch well again until the stiffness is gone.
Might try 1/4 teaspoon next time since it is quite drying. Only tried it with epsom salt so far. Can use Himalayan Sea Salt. Not regular salt.
Lily_of_the_Forest Thank you for replying to my comment, I’ll have to try out the recipe.

I’ve been doing a modified cgm ( I don’t follow all the rules) for close to a year and a half but it seems like every season change I have to use different products to keep getting good results.
How funny I recently started taking tips from her hair routine lol. I’ve tried to brush style soooo many times and her hair routine made me realize that my hair wants to clump naturally and the brush breaks them up
You should try Manes by Mell hair routine!
Manes By Mel she is the CURL QUEEN EXPERT!!!!
I've been trying right side up styling for a couple weeks now and it seems to work out so great for me. Now I'm excited to try damp styling next wash day. Great video and great results! Beautiful!
I see a lot of people have already said ManesByMel and I agree! Her curl pattern is way tighter than yours is so idk how that'd work, but she did a video styling her cousins' wavy hair and they turned out great.
Thank you for trying India's routine . I definetly can observe that you have less curl definition than when you use your curl clump hacks.
I tried this wash day! It was amazing!! I have been doing curly girl for 3 months and was about to give it up. Today I was so happy with how everything came out. Thank you for sharing!
it looks really good! i can’t do damp styling bc it always ends up super stringy. i’m gonna try to do this on my hair and see how it turns out❤️
Hi Courtney! I love the volume you got from this routine. My hair is very similar to India's. Could you please link the video with India's routine you used as inspiration? I'd like to watch it as well! Thanks xoxo
You are so pretty and so is India. Starting my curly girl journey tomorrow!
Could you try curly penny's routine, u think it would turn out great
You have gorgeous hair when you took it out of the pony tail in the beginning! Wow what a great base to work with! Cute video, great job.
How about manes by mell?!
I love her but most of her advice is for a curlier hair type. She recently did do her cousins hair that they thought was straight but turns out they had wavy hair!
I love her a lot, and I don't follow the curly girl method, and neither does she. But a lot of people on this channel follow the cgm, so mell isn't the best. Mell uses sulfates and silicones, so Courtney wouldn't do a video. BUT I REALLY REALLY LOVE HER TOO!!
@ Keira Kate and Michelle Young she actually has a really interesting wavy tutorial with the denman brush on her cousins and it looks great on them! Also, even though Mell isn’t CG, she has been making a switch in products lately to more natural and cg options! I’m sure she can recommend some good ones to Courtney. I really hope she tries Mell’s rutine!
I clicked so fast. This is so gorgeous on you! :D I would love to see you do other routines. I don't have anyone in particular but I'll watch no matter who's routine you do. :)
i like your hair with india batsons routine more. it looks more volumen and easy. nice greetings from germany :)
This was so interesting to watch all the different permutations & combinations of someone else's washday! Definitely will try the mix of a moisturing and a protein DC on my next one.
The whole thing of my hair feeling damp even when I think I've fully dried it happens to me all the time! You are definitely not the only one!
Needed to see this! I tried plopping vs damp styling and I feel that the latter works better for me. Also I’m lazy so I need the fastest method 🤷🏻♀️
I love curly hair so I get Perms, and my hair is not damaged, dry or frizzy. Perms now days are a lot gentler on hair.
You look so cute Courtney!
ooooo I love this plan! Which routine of hers? She has several
Swavy Curly Courtney the most recent one is the best
Love it ! I think it would be pretty awesome and maybe a little bit funny if you tried the Laura Method. The one with handfuls of leave in and gel. Lol.
I ❤❤❤ it! This is your best curls ever! You have amazing volume now but it's still soft, shiney, & defined!
I loved seeing you try India’s routine! Your hair looks great.
So excited for this one!! Y’all r both my faves 💕
Maybe try ManesByMel’s routine or Gena Marie’s?
I’ve been wanting to try the “ not your mothers “ hair products but I’m afraid India’s routine would be too moisturizing for my hair. Your hair looks fab as always though!
You know, I thought the same thing. But it wasn't too moisturizing or too heavy for me. I was amazed!
The whole line is actually really high in protein and the conditioner isn't too heavy. The gel didn't have enough hold for me, but I love all the rest!
I've been doing NYM Naturals for several months except for their conditioner and I love it all. But I agree that all of that stuff seems soooo moisturizing.
I recently read that heavy products have like 10 butters/oils in the ingredients while lighter products have no more than 5. So if you're really concerned just look at the ingredients and count the moisturizing ingredients
I love India!! Your hair looks beautiful
Such a fun video! It was so interesting to see your results doing it so different to how you normally style! Cute swimsuit too! Also, thought it was adorable that you make videos discussing super complexly named ingredients, but had trouble pronouncing "Playa". lol
Wow that's a lot of moisture. My hair is high porosity wavy 2b-3a and if I used conditioner, masks and rinse with cold water I would have greasy stringy curls. It would be ok because each day I find my hair gets drier and drier but it is a terrible disappointment to have such lackluster curls on day 1/day 2 that it only happens occasionally. Hopefully the protein in the mask will help balance all that moisture.
You and India are a couple if my favs! ❤️ Love this!
It’s beautiful!! Nice to see both of your routines on the same person.
It turned out soooo good!!
Because of this video, I watched @IndiaBatson on RUclips and now I'm hooked on her videos, too! Thanks.
India's hair is more " crazy" for sure like mine, ie, doesnt look exactly polished when brushed out . Indias hairvgets more like cotton candy( mine too) while yours is totally presentable brushed out.
You're both pretty and fun to watch. But you're my fave of all the wavy girls.
Really liked the results! I’m always scared of damp styling but I have the massive wait until my hair is done air drying
Now, I know India is not as strict w/ Curly Girl, however you are, so how do you feel using the two masks that are not CG approved? 😳 I think your hair turned out great ~ ☺️
Great results! I was really surprised there was no “squish to condish”.
I do something similar to indias routine during the week; not brushing my hair once out of the shower, just taking it out of the towels and glazing/scrunching cream/gel in, and air drying. Its easy and fast, gives a looser wave (2b) On the weekend ill define my curls individually with a Denman brush and diffuse, gives more defined curls (2c) but is definitely more work!
ManesbyMel please. I feel like India is a wonderful person but she's heavily sponsored by NYM...ever since she dropped Deva. I own the entire NYM line and its just not my jam. It tends to leave white flakes and residue all over. Plus my hair doesn't last longer than 4 hours.
What is nym?
Elizabeth Specht Not Your Mother’s products
Yessss, same thing it does to my hair. I have really hoped it workout because the prices and the ingredients are good ....however the residue Nope 👎🏽 I’m done with that mess
Ugh, that's what's causing my issue. Thanks for the info.
She still loves the products regardless of being sponsored by them it isn’t her fault if she likes them and they don’t work for you.
I've actually heard it is better to diffuse until almost dry, and then let air dry the rest of the way. Supposedly helps shine! But obviously you have no problem with that!😍
I personally like your hair better this way. But it’s always pretty 🤩
I was always told to apply deep conditioners after shampooing. No rinse out conditioners between shampoo and deep conditioner because rinse out conditioners can leave oils and butters in your hair. Making the deep conditioner not penetrate as good into strands.
Love india and love you! It turned out beautiful i hope you are feeling better
I've even using Shea Moisture and Cantu products. My hair isn't crunch ( I'm glad). Maybe I'm not using enough 🤔 I'm thinking I should have got these products too. Your hair is gorgeous sweetheart!
Awe thank you! If your hair has a crunch to it (the cast), you can scrunch it out. This lends to hold and will then give you softer waves/curls.
That shirt made your eyes pop so much! Beautiful!
I’m a Master Cosmetology Instructor if you would do few long layers at ends to remove some weight off your hair it would curl better. India’s hair is processed therefore porous making her hair curl better 😊
Where is your swimsuit top from? I love the “cropped tankini” style but have such a hard time finding ones I like!
I was going to ask the same thing! :)
Yes! It's so cute!
I was wanting to know this too!!!!
@swavycurlycourtney
Your hair looks amazing! It's so shinny & soft looking! Great job girl!
I really enjoyed this video. I did not know who India was before this. Nice to see you washing your hair right side up. This would be a great series ➡ trying other you tubers curly hair routines.
You got some really nice definition. But you also have a little more fly aways.
I found you from her. You both are super. I have taken things from you both. I have hair closer to yours and have been using Pattern lately and it works wonders. Please give it a try.
I have been trying her styling method.. I had a couple times it turned out ok. I’m starting to think her hair is more of a 3a & the way she styles makes it a 2c. Bc I thought I was a 2b, but looking at my 18 yr old daughter w my hair who has wore natural for 4 yrs, I def have a 2c. I’m new.. & her way for me ends up w smooth hair, but very stringy OR very frizzy from so much flipping & the damp styling.. Not sure what I did the days it turned out great..
Im so excited to see your videos on trying others routines!
I damp style mine but I microplop to towel dry and encourage my clumps then add products with praying hands instead of scrunching at end with a towel which would just rub my products off x
I really like how it turned out! The curls are more wavy? More defined? I don't know how to describe it, but it's super cute!
Did I miss the squish to condish part, or is that just not part of her routine? It looks AWESOME
Please try WavyCurlyAli's routine! I think her techniques are really interesting!
That was such a fun video! I watch her channel too, and I am so glad India shared her routine with you so you could show us how it works on a different type of wavy/curly hair. I can't wait to try the double mask!❤🙂
You did a perfect job, your hair looked really beautiful. If you could give the name of the products more clearer that would be great.
Everything should be listed in the description of the video if that is helpful! 🤗
I love it! Too bad nothing works for me.. my hair gets so mad if I do anything but comb it once and carefully apply products. I get wet friz sooooo badly and lose my curls if I touch it too much!
the lipstick you wore while drying suits you so well! akes your eyes pop!
