SUPER SIMPLE SRRING/SUMMER WAVY CURLY HAIR ROUTINE!!!!!!

[@debbieforseth254]

Yes, please make a video on the cast. I love your hair.

[@SueSWFlorida]

Very helpful, I just recently 1):discovered at age 60 I actually have wavy/curly hair after growing it out this year after decades of super short hair, and 2) after watching these YT videos purchased several Curl Smith products, a microfiber towel, correct comb/brush and a diffuser. Then I had my hair trimmed and shaped. Only two weeks of practice before traveling next week (W/the travel sizes of CS) to a postponed wedding. Thank you for getting me set up for my big trip!!

[@samanthacromer5378]

Love your new intro and that we have texture Tuesday with Manes by Mell and now Wavy Curly Wednesday with you!!!!

Thank you so much!

[@carijohnson2927]

I love Curlsmith products, they work SO well, and I love that you did this super simple 3 product wash day, your hair looks amazing!

[@bluefroggy99]

I placed my first CurlSmith order yesterday and I got sample sizes. I love that they have those available for most products, especially for new customers. I can’t wait to get my goodies☺️

[@christinaclos1820]

Courtney I *love* your blue and white striped shirt!!! Adorable! Looks so good on you!

[@VengefulAngeI]

I love that conditioner too!! I do that same technique with it too! (I use that method even with regular leave ins because my hair needs a leave in but gets weighed down) I never knew there was a name for the method though lol

[@emily3]

Thank you for this video Courtney! I just started my curly hair journey 3 and a half weeks ago, and I’ve watched sooo many of your old videos and I find them so helpful! Appreciate you!!

[@jennifermunoz7375]

You can do this !!!! I started 7 months ago. I went from barely having a wave to bouncy shiny clumpy hair ❤it won't be easy but it will be worth it . Dont forget to take pics ❗❗

I LOVE my lash extensions! I’ve had them close to a year now. I feel like I have makeup on when I don’t. I was one that wouldn’t let anyone but my family see me without makeup (my hang up, I admit), but now I find myself going out with a bare face. They gave me confidence! And my lashes underneath are just fine. 😉 I hope you enjoy yours, Courtney. (Psst: for those of us who are “older,” it helps with minimizing hooded eyes. 😉)

[@cherylgratton7940]

I sure appreciate this. I tend to think I have to do everything I know how to do, every single day, to get the best possible results every day. Just because I can, doesn't mean I have to! Thanks for reminding us!!

[@jab3527]

I'm new to the wavy hair journey (haven't even started yet!!), but have really enjoyed watching your videos. I love the Bible verse in your bio and I absolutely love you pointing this out about Curl Smith! I'm about ready to buy products for myself, so I've been watching all your videos on your favorite things and one brand videos. :) Keep shining for Him!

[@curlycamillechenelle2147]

Even though your curl pattern is looser than mine. Your product suggestions have never failed me. I think 🤔 it’s because my hair is thin and doesn’t do well being weighed down AND let out (not braided or twisted up). Thanks!!

[@rebeccart540]

Yeah, please make a video on the gel cast! :)

[@laly6980]

I just got the styling souffle and I can't wait to try it, I am transitioning from NYM products I almost run out from the styling gel and curl cream so I will be using their shampoo and conditioner and styling with the souffle. I was told at Ulta that all I need is just those 3 products 🤞

[@simplycurlyde]

Easy & simple, that's what I like. I've started the cgj about 6 months now. I understand why it's called a journey. I'm still finding out what works & what doesn't work 4 me. I'm still finding that my hair isn't wet enough & I'm not applying the enough gel. I usually wash, deep condish /condish & apply the leave-in, while I'm in the shower. Then I need 2 give my back a break, so I get out of the shower, plop my hair, dry off, get dressed & whatnot, then I unplop, rewet my hair, apply curl cream, mouse & gel, scrunching & squishing, defuse some & air dry the rest, then when it's fully dry, I'll use some type of oil to SOTC. I really need to check out SM products. Thx Courtney.

[@caitlinjoy2828]

hair looks amazing as usual. i appreciate hearing about how you put your washday together and the thinking behind it. it helps!! gotta say your lashes are looking gorgeous!

[@KathleenKC1]

I have been really liking some of the new @CURLSMITH products. I have not tried them all yet. I just hope they don't become like Shea Moisture that bring out a ton of new products, only to discontinue them a year or two later.

[@laurenkline3321]

Yes please! All things crunch.

[@melissalykins8895]

I started rinsing my hair upside down a few years ago and it’s made the biggest difference! That and plopping. But I definitely want to apply some of your techniques, thank you for the videos!

[@SwavyCurlyCourtney]

Thank you! Let me know how it goes!😃

[@lindsaylathrum6958]

[@crystaliukko3946]

Might be my fav video yet! Love the drum roll! Love the PS!! I’m surprised you didn’t dive into the nerdy science on hyaluronic acid though. Seems counterintuitive to put acid on your hair...

[@cindyms.1237]

Yay! I have all of these products and tomorrow is wash day! Your hair looks fantastic too. PS: the feather light protein cream is also a phenomenal product.

[@VengefulAngeI]

Your hair never seems to get frizzy as the days go on. My hair is so weird because by day 3/4, I actually seem to somehow get curlier, but I start to get frizz. Literally no matter which products or techniques. I'm in FL, so humidity is life, but I know you deal with humidity too. But your hair just seems immune from frizz!

[@florenciafernandez8447]

Have you tried cutting out glycerin? I'm a fellow Floridian and after I stopped using products with glycerin I stopped having frizz! I might just be sensitive to glycerin but it might be worth a shot 😊

[@jennifermunoz7375]

Floridan here too !! My hair lasts for about 3 days then day 4 and 5 is stringy. My hair doesnt seems to react to humidity only the one after rain , when I go out after or before it rains my hair goes POOF it lacks definition. I recommend using products without glycerin so your hair doesnt absorb much water from the air.

[@VengefulAngeI]

@@florenciafernandez8447 Yep. I also have tried every occlusive under the sun. Believe me when I tell you I've tried it all. Some things work a little better than others, but really it's just a matter of how much it frizzes by day 3 or 4, not IF it frizzes. It's the heat/ humidity combo. On cooler days, I've actually faired really well even in rain - it will literally reactivate everything and end up looking great. But the steaminess if summer just kills my hair. My newest thing is I don't break the cast AT ALL, which seems to work better than anything else.... But still not great 😣

[@rachellep2581]

It is her hairs natural texture. Her cuticle layer is tight low porosity. this is why her hair is always so shinny and smooth. You can literally see her hairs softness with your eyes lol. Products can not change your hairs texture this drastically. Working in salon I know this hair type very well. However its more commonly seen in straighter hair types. Their usual only complaint is how flat their hair is. They are the types to usually love a good texture or beach spray. They also usually get highlights to purposely damage the hair a little for more texture and volume. It's almost impossible in its virgin state to have what I consider real frizz lol.

[@Hunterheartspurple]

I just want to hug you!! such good advice you have helped my hair so much

[@sarahfacemmmm]

I love your channel! You’ve been so helpful. Would you be willing to try a steam refresh and give some pointers?!

[@charleeb1718]

[@anamariahrezdac]

That's awesome about the Bible verses on the bottles. I looked up mine then went on the website and looked at other products and looked up their verses. Very cool!! I wondered about that when I saw it the first time. Thanks for telling us😁

[@mariaenroth7058]

They stand for production batches ffs

[@melissaclark6578]

Plus summer mos brings on more humidity and a leave in conditioner helps seals your strands against humidity because leave in conditioner helps locks in the hydration from the water used to wash and rinse.

[@TheJanaRina]

You look amazing today. Super fresh! For me it was the Inahsi Soothing Mint shampoo that made me less greasy

[@alysonknop8395]

Hi Courtney, I've just started my hair journey and I find your videos really useful and helpful, could you do one about getting volume at the roots (diffusing upside down doesn't work for me) and about not having stringy waves? Those are my main problems. Also, how can I find products that are work for my hair?

[@Someone03671]

@@emkn1479 Thank you! I'll try it in my next washday.

I would love it if you made a video about the cast! I used to get an incredible, hard cast in the first 5 months of my wavy hair journey, but I haven't had a good one in over a year now. I'm afraid that it's because I've cut off most of the dyed hair? Idk, my hair hasn't been the same since I started cutting it off lol. It's healthy and shiny, but it won't hold a curl like it used to.

Hi Courtney...... So I've tried the curlsmith styling souffle, but found as it went in, it felt drying, and had to keep adding more water..... is this just me or would you suggest trying something else..... on a tight budget and limited choice here in the UK... so happy I found you here on you tube and Instagram!! Thank you!!

[@veronicaivanova]

Have you tried the Garnier Hair Food? They are super moisturising and often on offer in Boots. I personally love the banana and watermelon ones. Most people are crazy about the papaya one too and Courtney seems to like the aloe scent (she has reviewed it a couple of times, it's called Fructis rather than Hair Food in the US).

[@rionamcauliffe5469]

[@JohnsonFamReads]

That last tip makes me love Curlsmith even more. P.S. Not only does Curlsmith have the trial sizes, they have a trial size bundle that I think makes it a little cheaper to try a bunch of things at once!

[@JohnsonFamReads]

Sorry, last comment. 😂 Will the Curlsmith Detox work as a clarifying shampoo? I haven’t used sulfates in years, but when I recently went curly, I wondered if I should be using a shampoo with them occasionally. BUT, I would way rather use Curlsmith Detox if it’s just as effective.

[@GinaMarieCheeseman]

I need to get Curlsmith's Weightless Air Dry Cream. The humidity where I live is only 10% right now. My hair needs moisture.

[@alysonknop8395]

How can you tell if your hair is soaking up a product? Similarly, how do you know what your hair's porosity is?

[@alysonknop8395]

Also, my washday hair looks like your third day hair. Any ideas of what can cause a lack of curl defining and bounce?

[@curlycurlbirdygirl]

As for soaking up products - how can you tell if your skin is soaking up a product? While scrunching, if I can feel that the product is disappearing ie can't feel it on either my hands or my hair (and it hasn't ended up on the floor), then the hair soaked it up. As for porosity - there are different methods to determine that and Courtney has addressed that in her videos. As for definition and bounce - Courtney has addressed even that in her videos. Get ready for som binge watching 😉

[@alysonknop8395]

Thanks @Curlycurl Birdy girl. I will see if I can search for a video of hers on porosity. And your suggestions about product and how much to use was super helpful.

[@priscillaashlock9647]

Would you recommend curlsmith’s scalp line (pre, pro, and post) as a way to clarify your hair instead of using a sulfate shampoo?

[@ioanaschifirnet3814]

What? I had no idea about the Bible verses - that's so cool!!

[@nellylindner2715]

Hi! I have a question. My question is that I just started my wavy journey and I wonder what kind of gel would you recommend. My hair has always been thick and when I was little I had curls until I was like 5/6 It was when I went to the hairdresser and chopped of hair to my ears that I lost my pattern growing up.

[@stefflores]

Been wanting to try a scrubby shampoo or scalp treatment. I really wanna try this shampoo now

I love your videos so much!!! 💕 I have a question: I need a ton of shampoo to get it to cover my head when I’m told I don’t need that much. Why?

[@sunflowerbaby1853]

I too need a good amount of shampoo, a lot of conditioner and other leave in products. She has thin silky hair & doesn't require as much. I have very thick & thirsty hair, hence my hair needs more. Also it could be the quality of the product. Do what your hair needs. Everyone is different.

[@jacquiwiseman1466]

You may find better results by using a smaller amount of shampoo but cleansing twice. Cleanse, rinse. Then cleanse and rinse again.

[@ajoyfullsound]

My curl pattern tightens the longer I go between wash days. I always thought mine would fall like everyone always says their hair does. Have you ever been able to get a cast with flax gel? I can't seem to get a cast. It's like my hair soaks up all the product I put on it.

[@alysonknop8395]

A question for you: have you reviewed Ouidad Out of Thin Hair creme?

[@mariaxxx5941]

Do you use hairspray sometimes to hold longer the curl?

[@nathalieprange1713]

I'd love to use Curlsmith, but most of their products contain ingredients that I personally don't want on my body anymore, such as phenoxyethanol which is toxic to your liver, your fertility, your skin, it's production is also really bad for the environment... And it's not the only ingredient they use that is not so good. I use the INCI beauty app to check that. On the other hand, they use a lot of plant extracts and have great ideas for curly people... It's so sad 😭 I really wish they went for a cleaner recipe because their products look really amazing. Hey! The Bible verse idea is also fun (even if I'm not religious) it's cool :)

They smell kind of fresh and clean, not like clean laundry but like old school clean hair if that makes sense. The smell is not so strong but it is there and it doesn't linger in the hair once it's dried (although I wouldn't mind if it did 😉). I just loooove their products!
