When I was in my 40’s I started going grey. One regret I have is dying my hair. I wish I would have just let my hair go natural. So when I was 60 I stopped dying my hair. I have long hair. Now I’m 67, feel 40 and people honestly think I’m in my late 50’s. I exercise, eat healthy and I’m a positive happy person. That keeps me young. Love your channel Susie.

[@Christina-CA]

Hi Susie! Hope things are going great for you! Miss your videos but know you are busy. Would love to see a life update sometime when and if you feel like doing one. Love from a fellow Canadian curly girl❤

[@Mia-qt4th]

Congratulations on your job promotion Suzie its sounds so exciting and rewarding for you, dedication and hard work pays off! Hair looks gorgeous and congrats on your dream come true in comedy!

[@teresal2633]

I miss your videos. I sure hope you make a new one with the products you are using.

[@CurlySusie]

Working on it!

[@debbiegreenberg4847]

Congrats on everything! The gel I’ve found closest to Biotera is Ouidad Advanced Climate Control gel. I’m trying new stuff too so I’m happy folks are offering lots of suggestions here. I started going gray at 16 and I’m 47 but I haven’t been able to let it go because mine get wiry. Totally on a fitness journey too - I teach spin twice a week and Noom has really helped me - no “bad” foods - just logging everything to make sure I stay accountable. You are 100% right about drinking water and cutting down on caffeine and alcohol. Thank you so much for being so inspiring!

[@denisem8570]

Susie, if I'm correct, Zotos made Biotera gel. They still have two gels available at Sally under their own name, a lighter and a stronger hold.

[@CurlySusie]

You are absolutely correct. Not the same but I’ll give them a good try & include them in the video

[@mandymanning4478]

Yes that's correct, but I have tried all 3 and the 2 Zotos are a completely different consistency than the Biotera, so I hope you find one that works but I'd definitely get the sample bottles of Zotos!! Just a little idea....

[@jessiestephens3943]

@@mandymanning4478 where can one find the sample bottles of the Zotos gel? I'd rather try samples, decide if they work then buy a full size.

[@shinechaser]

Susie I am totally with you about the Biorera. You turned me on to it a few years ago and I loved it so I was devastated when I could not longer find it 😢 I recently found another gel at Sally’s called Generic value products liquid sculpting gel - compared to Sebastian Wet. It’s pretty much the same consistency as Biorera but the smell is different. I’m happy with it.

[@sarahr9323]

They didn't discontinue the Bioterra Gel!!! Sally's told me the same thing and I was SO BUMMED bc I have been using it for years thanks to Susie and I absolutely love it. I emailed Bioterra and they said there was a supply chain issue due to Covid and it would be back in stores by late January. Well my local Sally's had it this week!! The packaging has changed but it seems to be the same formula to me.

[@juliebalb338]

It’s back - But the formula has changed - my hair hates this new formula - glycerin is further up in the ingredient list. They tried making it “cleaner” - I will be retuning mine

[@sarahr9323]

Oh no- I didn't realize the formula changed! I bought the new one and it's still working for me thankfully. I did notice the packaging change. The old bottle looked better IMO. I hope you find something that works for you!

[@juleecurtner]

My other favorite gel is also from Sally Beauty. It's their Generic Value Products Liquid Sculpting Gel. It's a very similar consistency and gives me similar results. Try it out!

[@sarahr9323]

They didn't discontinue the Bioterra Gel!!! Sally's told me the same thing and I was SO BUMMED bc I have been using it for years thanks to Susie and I absolutely love it.

[@CurlySusie]

Yessssss 🙌🏻

[@NatashaClark162]

I compared the ingredients and saw differences that made me nervous. I also saw that it's no longer "Naturelle" Biotera but owned by Zotos Biotera. I guess Zotos bought it and reformulated?? I just came here to ask you, Susie, if you still love it more than any other because I've used it for years because of your initial recommendation AND trying other samples here & there (I tried Zotos while Biotera was gone and didn't like it, plus others) nothing tops it for me!!

[@sarahr9323]

I think Zotos and Bioterra have always been under the same company but for whatever reason changed the packaging. I also tried the Zotos gel previously and preferred the Bioterra Gel. I am almost done with the new bottle/formula and so far I'm still loving it.

[@dawns3565]

Nice to hear from you again!! The Biotera Gel is back! Your gray hair looks just like natural highlights, very lovely.

Because of you, I bought the Biotera Gel. It's crazy it's not getting out anymore!!!!! 😳 I will be looking out for your opinion on a new one. I'm happy your dreams are coming true!!!! You deserve it!!!! Happy birthday to 6 and 3 year old baby sons 😁 Congrats on EVERYTHING!! ❤️ Great to see you!!!!

[@CurlySusie]

I'm uploading a video :)

[@KELLSEY444]

I saw Tracy and Martina in the ad for the new show! I wondered if you were going to be included. I'm so jazzed for you! I know it's a love of yours and I'm just thrilled. OMG no Bioterra gel...I'm interested in Manes by Mel's new gel I think it's a collaboration. VERB Foaming Gel. People seem to love it. I'm sober because I needed to be. Over 30 years without a drop ever. Good for you to go for the lifestyle. You LOOK great.

[@CurlySusie]

30 years!! That is so amazing and inspiring… for real ❤️ I think I’ll add that gel to my list. I’m going to try 10-12 total. It’s going to take a month Id say.

[@jgarfield9]

I think the dark hair is richer, and provides a nice contrast with the rest of your coloring. Since I'm reading this 1 year later, wonder what decision you made??

[@shellastew]

I love Zotos. That and the LA Looks are my holy grails. I'm also a big fan of the Verb Foaming Gel that Manes by Mel helped create - a bottle just doesn't last as long as the others.

[@TheOptimus1977]

Hi Susie. Congratulations on your new position and on the success of your show. You truly deserve it. I have been trying out various types of gels since Bioterra stopped making their gel. Nothing comes close to Bioterra. I am really looking forward to your gels videos. I really need some help selecting a new gel for my hair.

[@kristinmeyer489]

You look good with both straight and curly hair!

[@annettetonelli3365]

Well done on getting your dream job. I’m sure you will be outstanding in this position. You have inspired me to get regular with my exercise. So now I do yoga x2 weekly and I try to make sure my steps are at 10 thousand or close to that. I don’t beat myself up if I can’t achieve that, and I try to make sure my eating is healthy too. I appreciate your honesty in what you share with us. Your keeping it real!

[@trishgrace9376]

Hi Susie, I just found your channel and I love it! I was searching for curly/wavy hair and how to work with it. Mine is more wavy but want to work with it since I get more compliments when I let it go natural. I'm retired, 72, and finally let my hair go gray/white! it's been about 16 months, and with mid-neck length with trims I'm almost there! And lots of compliments and my hair has never been healthier! I wish I had embraced it in my early 40's when I started dyeing it in addition to the highlights. When my face was more youthful and full of collagen :-) Lots of damage, lots of conditioning but still had my thick wavy look I smoothed. I say to my young friends, go for the grays, embrace them! You have a beautiful youthful face/complexion and it will give you more depth to your darks and it will be damage free!!

[@donnamosca6063]

Congrats on your new job! I had no idea biotera was discontinued. It is the only gel I use. I will be very much looking forward to your new gel videos. Love your videos!

[@julieomeara1880]

Miss your videos Susie. Hope you and your family are all ok. Will you be making videos again soon? x

[@CurlySusie]

Working on it!

[@tracysereda326]

Lus brand has a new gel out. You can really tell how well it holds the moisture in your hair. Especially great for Canadian winters.

[@CurlySusie]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@s.jillianslack1460]

I love the new LUS seaweed gel.

[@meredith18352]

I have also been trying to get healthier this year through an improvement in the amount of exercise I do. I started with mostly step aerobics mainly because I'm old and enjoyed doing them when I was younger. I added strength training (light weights and resistance bands) because the online trainer kept telling the 'cardio queens' that we would get a lot more out of training if we added strength. I don't think I have lost a lot of weight, I'm not using scales, but as of today all of my clothes fit me again. I also haven't tracked calories and eat carbs all the time because exercise makes me hungry. I still like a glass of wine a few nights a week and that is OK too. Congrats on your new fulltime job!

[@hedgehog0856]

Congrats on the new job! I can't believe how old the boys are getting! Love watching you! Good luck on the job and the acting gig!!!

[@bettycamacho7084]

I came here after some time away looking for the name of the gel you used, and found out it was discontinued. Oh well, such is life. I just ordered on Amazon (I'm in the UAE) Cantu Stay Glue (in a tube) and something called Aunt Jackie's Flaxseed Gel (in a tub). I used to make my own Flaxseed gel but it just turned smelling funny too quick if I didn't put in the fridge. And I found if it was in the fridge and not in the shower I just wouldn't use it. I have almost finished a tub of Cantu Moisture Retention Styling Gel (in a tub). I didn't re-order as it was well ok and wanted to try something new to see if it would be better than ok. Can't wait for your videos. I can't believe 6 years have gone by either as I remember watching when you were only a few hundred subscribers and I was living in Munich and you had really long hair. Congrats on all the new chapters and jobs in your life! xo from Dubai

[@MotherCoconuts811]

I really enjoy the Herbal Essence Set Me Up Gel. Relatively cheap, and doesn’t weigh my fine hair down or make it look greasy even if I apply too much. And I think your greys look awesome! I’d keep them!

[@angelalink9176]

Hey Susie! FYI. I was shopping today at my local Walmart in America and found the totally twisted mousse is being discounted! Anyhoo, I picked up the last 3 at $1.43 each. Thought of you and thought you may want to get into the clearance sale. Not sure if the new curl mousse they have is comparable.

[@breewithlove]

Always soooo good to see you Susie!!! Huge congrats on the new position and just everything going wonderful for you. Life has its ups and downs as we all know, but it’s choosing to see the good as what helps us all day so positive and be a light to others. Darn it no more Biotera! I do enjoy the twist, climate gel. I forget the whole name of it, but someone else named it and one of the other comments. It’s a good consistently a nice scent. Love ya girl!! ❤❤

[@MissChrys]

I miss you, Susie!

[@AA-jn3oc]

The timing of this video is coincidental to my recent discovery that Biotera gel is no longer available to buy near me. I had no gel left at all so I had to do some quick research and landed on GIOVANNI L.A. Hold Styling Gel. I’ve tried it twice now and like it so far. Looking forward to seeing you experiment with gels as my curls are similar to yours. Good luck!

[@theresas2520]

Me too! I went with the Giovanni too but it's so sticky!

[@kristensaenz6421]

Giovanni LA hold gell is very thick but it is good and not too expensive. I add a bit of water when I am emulsifing to make it easier to work with. I was going to suggest that gel too. Another great gel that I use nearly every wash is Trelux hi! Definition Gel. It is soooo good and easy to use has nice hold and definition. These 2 gels last a long time because you don't need to use a lot

[@amnocturne]

I know that Bioterra was going through a repackaging but I also read that the gel has been reformulated; have you noticed a difference?

[@CurlySusie]

I have noticed a slight difference, but I still prefer it. My hair is a bit drier lately, but I also haven't been using a curl cream. I'll have to do some experimenting.

[@amnocturne]

@@CurlySusieThank you for the info and the link for the clips! 😊

[@tamianderson123]

I love your honesty, thank you!

[@aprilc.3697]

Great seeing you back! My go to styling products are Ouidad Advanced Climate Control gel and the same curl cream. I tried other brands, like R&Co since I go to a salon that exclusively uses this brand, but I always go back to Ouidad. Congratulations on your new job! You’ll be awesome 👏🏻. I’m not personally going grey, and I went back to getting my hair colored at the salon since I suck at doing it myself 😂. Plus I’m in my early 50s and I feel better when my grey hair is colored.

[@gravincas3916]

Beyond the zone bada bing gel is something I think you might like. It's a bit harder hold but just use more water and less product and it might work for you. It's at Sally's as well. Congrats on your new job! That's so exciting! I'm so happy to see things working out for you like they are. You deserve it. I'm so glad you touched on the fitness. You really inspired me and I got a little tummy bug a little bit ago and didn't want to exercise cause blah.. I feel better now and haven't started back up again since I got it off the habit. Thanks for the little nudge. ❤️

[@brendatrefzger1660]

Would you try LUS Irish Sea Moss Gel? I tried their all in one styler and love it, but I’d like a little more hold for extra days. Thanks. And yes, I miss you when you don’t post 😊

Hi Susie I'm in British Columbia Canada. I just checked our Sally's and they do have the Biotera Gel on their website. I wonder if it's just the stock they presently have and when it's gone it's gone. Its a great gel. I've been making my own flaxseed gel. It gives me good day one and two hair. Then I need to refresh on day three.

[@teamworkf1]

CONGRATULATIONS! On your new job role! Enjoy it! We can wait 😂😉 take care! So many gels out there! The search starts! 👍👏👏 thank you!

[@mmdulong]

Congratulations on your new job! Question: When you color your hair, do you color all of it each time or just the regrowth? Permanent color or semi/demi-permanent? Even deposit-only color will build up, especially on the ends because they're more porous. I would ask your stylist to add some subtle highlights, preferably balayage, but only a few shades lighter than your color, just to break it up and have it easy to maintain. If you continue to color at home, only do the roots, not the ends. Can't wait to see it!

[@CurlySusie]

Mary, you are going to think I’m just saying this but I’m going to do exactly what you suggested. My appointment is in 10 days!

[@mmdulong]

@@CurlySusie I'm a licensed hairdresser but haven't worked in a salon in decades. The chemicals and constant wet hands did a number on my hands, so I had to give it up. Color techniques and products have come a long way over the years. I can't wait to see it! :)

[@sharonchancey8938]

I’ve been following you for past 5 yrs. Started using biotera after watching you. Can’t wait to see what you find for us to use in its place. I’ve let my hair get long but noticing it gets really stringy day 4. It’s really thin bc of old age. Ideas? Also I’m 65 and just discovered I have osteoarthritis in right knee and it’s rough. Trying to control inflammation. Any ideas you can add to help control imflamation and stiffness? Ty

My grays are coming through just like yours, not quite as much but I am only 30 years old lol

[@carleighwindhorst5051]

Congratulations on the new position! I did not realize the Biotera gel was discontinued, and I’m very saddened. Thankfully I have found a different gel I also like, offers more hold if you don’t water it down but I have lasting results with it. Maui Moisture Curl Quench + Coconut Oil Ultra Defining Gel! Definitely check it out.

Thanks for sharing, I stopped drinking over 32 years ago. Happy that you are doing well.

[@amywood5440]

I have been using Innersense’s I Create Hold Gel & I love it! I have very dry, coarse hair with quite a bit of gray that I cover with Demi-permanent dye at a salon. My hair stylist, who is awesome with curly hair, as she is a curly girl herself, recommended the Innersense gel. I use it with Uncle Funky’s Curly Magic (which I add to my hair first) & the combo is beautiful! Good luck finding your next holy grail product!

[@rachellep2581]

Great seeing you Sussie. Congrats on your dream job 👏🏼 🎉 so very happy for you.

[@tracyvision]

Susie - your hair got so long! Love it! Consider letting your hair be its natural color. You might be thinking “but I don’t want to look OLD!”. But would you think that if most women your age were graying? Because most women your age are graying. We have been sold this lie that gray = old by hair color companies and hair stylists (who make much more of their $ from coloring than cuts) and beauty mags that want to tell us what color is “in” this season. It’s all about them wanting our money. You’re going gray - clearly Mother Nature doesn’t think you’re too young to be gray! It’s natural for us to start going gray in our 30’s or even 20’s - is that old?! Those same hair stylists came up with a “rule” that say you need to wait until you’re 70%+ gray before considering letting it be natural. It’s bullshit. I’m 50-60% gray and my color transition was relatively easy compared to women I know who waited until they were almost all gray. I just stopped coloring and never had a sharp line of demarcation. You don’t need to be all gray, or have big dramatic silver streaks to have gorgeous natural salt & pepper hair. Personally I love my natural silver highlights much more than any color job I ever had. It’s unique, it gives my hair dimension, looks especially great when I wear it wavy, and no one else can buy it. Just my two cents. And congrats on your new job!

[@simplycurlyde]

Congrats Susie on your new job! I saw that too, that Biotera was being discontinued! I thought of you, because you are the one that got me to try it. Have you tried Biolage? I think they're about the same. Until about 2 years ago, I always kept my hair short because I didn't know to care & style my waves & curls. Since then, I've been letting it grow & it's about halfway down my back. I'll be 57 years young in a few months and I have some white scattered, like yours and I think this is the longest my hair ever been! For the first time in my life, I'm loving my hair. Also, for the 2nd time in my adult life, I found my way of losing weight. I think it's something you said in one of your other videos a few months back, that it's all about calories. So true. When I was at my heaviest, I realized that I was dishing myself as much as I was dishing my husband! I also learned about mindful eating, & after suppah snacking was just a bad habit, because I wasn't really hungry. For me, intermittent fasting works for me & I start my morning with lemon water, chia seeds & mint extract & a protein (Premier Protein) & cold brew coffee shake around 10 a.m. I lost 37 lbs in 3 years! I haven't started yet, but I want to incorporate some type of physical activity.

[@CurlySusie]

Hey! Thank you so much for your comment. ❤️❤️❤️ that means the world to me. It’s people like you that make me want to keep making videos. I’m so happy that you love your hair. 37lbs in 3 years is amazing to me. Most people don’t have the patience to gradually change their lifestyle & make subtle change. 57 is young!! As far as physical activity. Try to find something you enjoy. Even once a week. Yoga, walking, dancing, trying random fitness KZbin videos. It feels so good to move & stretch your body. Just do it

[@simplycurlyde]

@@CurlySusie Thank you for the encouragement & kind words. There is just one mindful eating that I can't seem to conquer yet, and that is still feeling like I have to clean my plate when I eat at my parent's. Oh well, that's just once a week. Lol!

[@simplycurlyde]

​@@CurlySusie Did you see that Amazon does sell the Biotera gel! It looks like they just redesigned the bottle.

[@katelynl.1756]

I was so devastated when I realized Biotera was discontinued and thought of you immediately, Susie! The only gel I find comparable is Ouidad’s advanced climate control. It’s great but so expensive. However Ouidad’s site does offer deals frequently and Ulta does the jumbo size discounts a few times a year. Keep us posted!

[@ladyjessica23]

Ouidad Vital Curl Tress Effects Gel is one of my faves, but not only is it super expensive - but they changed the scent from clove to a terrible perfumey overpowering scent. I love the gel, but hardly use it due to these two issues.

[@msadams224]

I literally came to the comments to say this exact thing. The Ouidad is the only comparable gel I've found. I've never tried their more affordable Twist line, so I wonder if maybe there's a gel there that does the trick. Black Friday sales right now btw... I just ordered a new big jug for around $50.

[@sarahheanssler1852]

Oh Suzie I love you and your straight forward approach so much! You are a true leader and such an asset to the world. it’s fun to see you going after what’s important to you. I have been with your channel for so long and learned most curly hair techniques from you. we were pregnant with the last baby at the same time, and truth, it does seem like yesterday! I didn’t love the bio terra gel so this may not be a helpful suggestion (it was too lightweight to get curls to hold in my wavy hair) but i’m really loving devacurl ultra defining gel. It has a matte, non-crunch texture and great hold. I’d be so curious to get your opinion on it.

[@vickigilbert5906]

You likely won’t see this by now, but I live in the U.S. and just bought Biotera gel. They changed the packaging, but it’s the same product.

[@ShawnaRN]

I love the Biotera gel too. I also love the Ouidad Gel( the one in the red bottle). Good luck on your gel hunt

[@naturedweller]

Your hair looks fantastic! That's too bad about BioTerra Gel. I first found out about it on one of your videos and never got around to trying it. I'm considering trying a gel from the brand "Shea Moisture". I've been using their products for years and really love this brand. I have excessively dry hair and scalp and their products work like magic on my hair. I especially love their leave in conditioner and thought I would see how the gel is. For hair dye, I've been using "Henna Hair Color" by the company Rainbow Research. A natural hair dye. It's a bit messy to use, but I've got a good technique down for applying it with much less mess. We seem to have about the same hair color and I would recommend the dark brown if you want to stay with your natural hair color. Just some suggestions I thought I would share that work great for me.

[@stevieray7203]

I feel your pain on the Biotera gel…they d/c my HG conditioner a WalMart dupe for a fancy conditioner. I have a few hoarded bottles for when my hair needs to come out, but nothing is the same especially not for the 4$ price tag.

Hi Susie, you might like Re:coil by AG Hair Care. Not sure if the ingredients are objectionable, but the stuff works awesome.

[@faithdockendorff4747]

Hi! I’ve used Bioterra gel and liked it, but I like AG Liquid effects better. Ive used it for years but I’ll admit my hair was a bit crunchy with it. However, I recently ordered the unscented LUS shampoo, conditioner and all-in-one and their gel. I really like the shampoo and conditioner a lot. The all-in -one made my hair utterly amazing…for about6 hours then it was frizz city. I tried their seaweed gel with the all-in-one but it wasn’t enough. But the AG liquid effects with the all-in-one is magic. I have had more compliments on my hair I the past month than I have my entire life.

I emailed Zotos a week ago when I couldn't find the Biotera gel at Sallys anymore 😫 and I explained this too. They told me it was still being sold at Sally's. They gave me a link and of course it said it didn't exist anymore so I have no idea why the heck they told me that. But I found a concoction using the Dove finishing gel & the Curlsmith curl defining styling souffle. (Great slip too). Surprisingly my hair lasted a few more days! I have fine curly hair so I can't use anything heavy. I tried the Giovanni gel but it's so thick and sticky.

You turned me on to Biotera several years ago. I kind of forgot about it for some reason. Last week a friend gave me a huge bottle as she didn’t want to use it. I used it again and man does my hair look great. Dang, sorry to hear that this will be my last bottle…Congrats on the new job.

Congratulations on all Your life changes! I have found the Bounce curl light cream gel to be very similar to the bioterra. I need a stronger hold for mine but have tried both and they are really alike in terms of hold, slip, consistency, etc.

Susie, I bought the biotera after watching your video and I must say it reminded me so much of biolage I used to use. Right down to the smell and color of the bottle! Made me wonder if it was a dupe for the biolage?

[@CurlySusie]

It is 100% a dupe for Biolage. That was the whole idea behind the line. Biolage was my favourite product line prior to going silicone free. The deep conditioner is amazing

@@CurlySusie Thanks! I don't have to wonder anymore lol My friend used to own a beauty salon and that was her go to brand

[@curlsnthings853]

I also love the Biotera gel but have also used Biolage gelee styler which is also good. Very similar to Biotera.

I'm uploading a video right now! The next one will be more helpful/ interesting :)

@@CurlySusie great news!! I’ve missed you!

[@rosehunter7788]

So glad Biotern gel is available.I’ll get mine from Walmart

[@NovaNomes]

My jaw dropped when you said they discontinued the Biotera Gel! I bought it on your recommendation and fell in love. I can still see it on Amazon AU though? I hope you can find something comparable. :)

So many congratulations, on everything in life! The one thing I did get out of this video, I stand in solidarity with your husband and the morning coffee stays 😉

[@buhreeanuh]

I actually reached out to Zotos customer service and they told me that their gel will be back on the shelves in mid-January! 🤞🏽

Ouidad Humidity gel -the red bottle. It is the only gel I will use. I will buy it on their website when they have 20-25% off.

[@haleygirl5570]

On man, that's such a bummer about the bioterra gel! I found your channel early in my curly hair journey and have been using bioterra for about 5 years. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you try and finding your next "holy grail" gel - I'll be doing the same

[@ashleycooke3799]

Congratulations on the new chapter in your career. Have you heard of the Canadian Brand called Love Ur Self from Toronto? I would love to see a review of their all in one styler and their Gel.

[@charlieseverson3534]

You turned me on to Biotera. I just got a bottle a few weeks ago, and now I'll be trying to stretch it out!

[@candylyman6429]

Giovanni gel,shampoo,conditioner are the only thing that has worked for me.

[@CurlySusie]

I’m getting the gel for my video 100%

[@kelley_stoll]

Congrats on the new job! And that's a bummer on the gel! I just found a big bottle while cleaning out my bathroom closet. I just restarted working out to growingananas yesterday. My babies are big boys so I need my 💪. Happy holidays to your family. Your boys are cute! 😍
