  • I'm a new subscriber ( as of a few hours ago) idk where I've been hiding...but you my dear are awesome! I love your personality, energy, & positivity! May God continue to bless you!

  • Thank you for speaking the truth. You are a beautiful person. I love your persona and attitude. You are an inspiration :-)

  • I needed to sooo hear this. It has been hard to take the snide comments and the looks I get from some people. I know people that try to be different or try to set themselves apart. What if you don't need to do a darn thing but wake up, run to do some errands and then open your mouth. Oh my look at what you are wearing, doing, and saying without so much as a thought. that has been my month. thanks again.

  • Amen!

  • Well said!

  • love it!! thank you

  • Yep, standing 5'10" and love, did you hear me, LOVE my 3 inch heels. My husband is 6'4", so he loves me in my heels that brings me closer to his lips! Love it Sug! Being different makes me love myself even more. Thanks for the video because somebody out there really needed to hear this!

  • Say it again and say it loud. My new fav, thanks Sug!

  • I love this video, may fav. out of all 196 of 'em... Way to keep it positive!!! Love U!

  • I'm feeling this video on a level that I can't explain. When I was growing up in the hood listening to metal & dressing "weird" I was picked on & made to feel like a freak, I tried to fit in but couldn't. Later on when I was much older & comfortable in my skin & didn't give a rats behind what others thought I rocked my crazy clothes, pierced my septum, tragus, etc & got tattoos cuz I felt like it & I wanted it & I've never regretted who I finally was not one time. Thanks for the encouragement.

  • Love it! I love being "different". It's who God made me!

  • this video made me get up n dance to the song in my head. i love it!!!! be blessed, be happy, be YOU!

  • Ms. Sugar, you spoke to me this morning. For so long, I ran from who I truly am. But I learned to accept and appreciate the young lady God decided He wanted me to be. My smile, my style, my quirks are all parts of me. And I rock. Thank you.

  • I watched this vid this morning and it put me on such a high. I'm a lot strange and sometimes I do allow people's strange looks and views to get to me and I feel myself trying and failing to conform but this video is a very timely reminder to just be me and be happy to be me. Thank you so much for posting!

  • Love, it, love it, LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

  • your message is great! I'm going to share it with my students tomorrow: "Dare to be you!"

  • This video was right on time. It just so happens that I checked my YT subscriptions after coming home from dinner with two male friends. I'm in the process of transitioning to natural hair and to make a long story short, they pretty much told me that if I plan on cutting it short, I should perm it as well because "natural hair and afros ain't for everyone" and that they'll be happy when the "trend" is over.

    Once again, thanks Sug.

  • Love this! Thank youfor the reminder.....Here I was sitting here exciting about travelling home but wondering what people were going to think when they saw me. I'm gonna do me. Let them do themselves.

  • Very well put loved it

  • aww that was cute n sweet n adorable n uplifting n comforting n relatable n encouraging n awesome.. U da bestest

  • Awesome video! I love it!

  • Guuuuuuuuuuurrrll You betta say that!! Love  love love this video!!!

  • WELL SAID SUG!!!!!!

  • So interesting....I'm just the opposite with the hand gesture statement... Me trying to be too much.... Not simply me, which is not eclectic . I love this video.

  • addition to your PSA: follow ur dreams....

  • AWESOME!!!! A lot of us out here needed to hear that Sug!!! Not only is it an eye opener but it also is put into the universe for all of our young ladies and young fellas to be COMFORTABLE with who they are no matter what Dick,Jane,Tyrone or Keisha has to say about it. That's what's going on in our world today. It's a shame we cannot feel comfortable in our own skin for the "fear factor" of what might be said. BE WHO YOU WERE MEANT TO BE...not who you think they want you to be! :)

  • Great vid! I beleive this 100%. Be you, do you, whatever, whoever you are. I love individuality! Why would you waste your time trying to be someone else when you can be a better you, The Best You!!!!!!!! God don't make mistakes!

  • LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • Truth! Not everyone is going to like everything about you. You have to live for you!

  • Comment removed

  • Speak on it suga....great video you have no idea how much I needed to hear this.....

  • I wish I could like this 10 more times and carry it around on my back. You make my day and I know God sends me messages thru you. *hugs*

  • fabulous msg! thats right! be cute for YOU!:)))

  • Love it!! The world would be a very boring place if everyone dressed and styled their hair the same way. If people don't like your style then they need to click the button and watch somebody else. That's what the YT is - different channels for different folks. Anyway I'l be watching ya child. Love your style!!!! Love your videos and Tiny!! You're so funny!

  • Hey Sugar. Not related to personal style but I decided yesterday not to wear makeup despite having fifty million bumps and marks on my skin that was perfectly clear a few short months ago *taking a moment*. I have been hiding behind a mask of Black Opal because I couldn't present me as I was. I didn't even break out this bad in high school but yesterday and today I just was like forget the mask, I'mma let my skin breathe. And I feel good cuz I am still cute; bumps and pock marks and all :-)

  • @AfroTee I forgot to say just now but I have to let you know that you inspire me to be better. Not to achieve or do or get, but just to live and really love and enjoy me. Thank you for that.

  • Peace & Love. Thank You!

  • Love this!

  • Wow...I've stopped running...

  • Love it!!

  • Can u say LOVE this video! Do u Boo!

  • Love Love Love this video...I myself am one of the strange ones...

  • Very well said Sug... For many years I too have fought accepting who I am because its not what some people think is normal or "common". I am just now at almost 30yrs. old learning to love and appreciate the person that God created me to be. Sometimes its still difficult, but everyday this star inside of me is shinning more and more. Thank you for ur messages Sug. You are a "CREATIVE INSPIRATION"!!! God Bless...

  • Great message Sug. I own a plus size women's clothing boutique and some of my customers will tell me 'I can't wear xyz because -people- will stare at this or that.' and I tell them, when you wear this outfit out OWN IT! If anything, they will be drawn to your confidence (and fashion ;-) before they even think about your size. So it could be many a thing that is 'strange', your hair, your style, your size, whatever. But I agree wholeheartedly! Dare to be you. Love this vid.

  • Love it. It's not strangeness it's uniqueness and people who make you feel different just wish they could have that much style.

  • Thanks Sug! I was just hinking about you and @Taren916 and @PhillyDiva19154 and @AfricanExport and how you ladies have helped me to feel better about me. I will be 30 in January and it has taken me about 25 years to begin to be comfortable in my own skin and personality. I hope you ladies realize how special you are for helping people like me and others who are too shy to post, know how special we are all on our own. Straight up, no chaser! Thank you for being you!

  • Preach Sug!!!

  • Great video!!! Be you. Yes!

  • sugar you said that thang girl! i dare to be me even if my mama don't like my "nappy hair that needs to get a perm!"many blessings to ya!

  • I really like this message. Thank you Ms Sug.

  • Nicely done !!! I am a new subscriber and I really dig your material. I enjoy how you bring your viewpoint to bear. Very interesting. From my own personal standpoint, I have noticed how so much of the junk I have to deal with is rooted in my choices of people who I let in my life. Their mindsets, paradigms and expectations drive me bananas. So, guess what... they gotta go (and take all their shit with them and get the hell out). But still, it was ME who let them in, in the first place.

  • Yes Lawd! Conforming is BORING and unsatisfying...great video message!

  • I love how to say ALL the time... "I don't care if you don't like it"

  • Ok, I usually just watch your vids and sometimes I don't rate (forgive me) but today, ma'am, I have to rate and comment. Thanks for sharing this message! I went to the Kanye' and Jay Z concert the other day and for weeks I fantasized over an outfit to wear (rocker/glam/casual) but I did not want to wear heals! Long story short, I ended up wear heals and stood up for 2 hours dancing. My feet still hurt and the concert was 4 days ago! The whole time, I was thinking, I should of worn my high top

  • YYYYEEEESSSS!!!!!!!! EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN PREACHIN!!!! SUG I SWEAR YOU ARE THE OLDER VERSION OF ME #yougivemeLIFE!

  • @whoissugar

    Will always be watching !! If you stop making videos , I will eat loots of ice cream

    to console myself :-) your channel is the bomb !!

  • I love this video. Thanks for sharing! If I get arrested by the fashion police I hope you're on hand to bail me out (",)

  • amen sista : )

  • Yessssah!!!!

  • Looooovveeee this video!

  • love! 

  • I shared this on my FB...

  • AMENNN! they are actually saying: "wish I could do that tooo" "wish I had the freedom she feels" " wish I could care less and love me regardless". Do you! luv it :o)

  • I wish this was something I learned when I was younger, but at least I know this now.

  • i love it.. i always get snares n looks.. snickers and weird smiles whn i catch ppl staring.. and its not because i got on 5 different colors, afro all over, bag matching my shoes and all my fabulosity.. which i do have!! but the looks i get is cause of my wheelchair, im a paraplegicwho still dare to be me.. and loving every moment.. thanks Sug for this video, i loved it!!

  • Great video!  OUTSTANDING!

  • i luv it

  • You hit the nail on the head with this one Sug. I personally could care less about what anyone has to say about me. I just may be weird, crazy, goofy etc but hey i like me, and thats all that matters

  • Yup!! And that's the beauty of getting older. I just don't give a damn!!! Yeah!!!!

  • Wow! It's been great to discover you on the YT so refreshing. I can identify... to quote Forest Gump 'life is like a box of choclates' lol, imagine if we were all the same :( I love my uniqueness, its like another skill and likeminded people like yourself. Great topic!

  • That's right Sug!!! You have me waking up in the morning signing, "outfit of the day!" you inspire me to be free to be me! Thank you honey!

  • Awesome! We all need to hear and internalize THAT!! Because faking the funk is so not the move LOL

  • Ppl forget they have choices so if you don't like something or someone don't stress yourself about it! Amen, well said.

  • Great Advice! Sugar

  • 1 DISLIKE = SOMEONE WHO ISNT WHO THEY SAY THEY ARE .. THEY LIVING UP TO WHAT SOCIETY WANTS THEM TO BE AND FOLLOWING THE TREND TUHH!!.. OR JUST A PLAN OL HATER.. -_-

  • *thumbs up* from a strange person. Lol

  • PA-REACH SUG!!

  • @DannieRae79 HAHAHAHA@ PA-REACH lol.

  • love the msg

  • Can I share this on Facebook?? I was just thinking this the other day...about how strange that I can be ....and loving every minute of it.

  • oh man, so well said, very fluid! you know at work, my whole department (bar one) hates me, cos i am who i dare to be, and it rubs them the wrong way, thank God i have management on my side. Yep Sugar, i love watching your videos because you are just who you are, and people either like you or not, and it's the same for me. i am called "weird" on a regular basis, i started taking it as a compliment a few years ago, weird works for me! :)

  • @louloumatou Get outta here! People hate you? I honestly cannot even conceptualize that. No matter, you have so many people out here in yt-land that love you to pieces, so those workmates can kick rocks.

  • @TheSupasweet love your comment "kick rocks" :) oh yes, they do not like the fact that i have come in and the management likes what i am doing, and i am trying to push them to be more organised, committed and consistent with what we do as a department, there is no team work there, everybody does their own thing and it is always a mess, they absolutely cannot stand me and even try to bitch to the kids about me when i am not there, the kids tell me! :( management is onto it now! sucks!

  • sooo....i love you! lol

  • Nothing but the truth!

  • Oh, YT would act up as I am trying to comment to everyone of you. SMH! Anywho, thank you all for supporting me. I love you guys. Bless.

  • Thank you so much. I'm gone go put on a dress & show my super hero thighs ...got tried of ppl saying I had super hero legs & ain't worn shorts or skirts in almost 8 yrs. Gone be me!!!

  • So, let me first say, I am a huge supporter of you. I love your videos. This is my first time ever leaving a comment on anyone's video. But God put it in my heart to say "Thank You". I needed to hear that message at 12:20am. I am struggling right now with my self confidence...so again...."thank you and God bless"

  • Amen, amen.

  • @rjmami8508 Thanks for supporting!!

  • I love your message!

  • @Mizzezmellymel Thanks!

  • Nice message. What u said reminds me of my youth. I use to rock fluorescent colored clothes and my clothes had different themes and time periods( 40s look, hippy look). Now I wear khakis and blouses. Boring.

  • @polifonyann My mama tells me the same thing. Thanks for supporting!!

  • Wonderful message! I shared this vid on my facebook timeline.....Be blessed!

  • @capria30 YAY! Thanks!!

  • This is beautiful.... hope someone uses this video as an inpsiration..as motivation...

  • @ShoeConnoisseur Thanks. Me too. Honey, I had to go through some mess to find and accept myself.

  • I love this video. I tell my daughter all the time don't be a follower be a leader even if u look different than everyone else. Thanks for sharing

  • @createdwitlove Amen. Thanks for supporting!!

  • Fierce!!!! Luv it! :0)

  • @dolphinkillerwhale Thank you!

  • Yep, I do see that there are some people trying to dim other people's light by putting their own issues on someone else (thumbs downing, taking jabs etc on & offline). We have to practice being completeley and totally immune to it.Thank You for letting them know WE AIN'T GONNA STOP no matter what they do! And for being so damn unapologetic about it!
