What is the curly girl method?

If you’ve been struggling with frizz, dryness, or undefined curls, you’ve likely heard of the Curly Girl Method. But what is it exactly—and how do you start?

The Curly Girl Method (CGM) is a curly hair care routine , designed to help wavy, curly, and coily hair thrive—without harsh ingredients like sulfates, silicones, drying alcohols, and heat styling.

🚫 What to Avoid in the Curly Girl Method

The method recommends avoiding:

• Sulfates (they strip natural oils)

• Silicones (they coat hair and block moisture)

• Parabens & synthetic waxes

• Heat tools (like flat irons or curling wands)

• Brushing dry hair

All Organi Brands products are free from sulfates, silicones, and artificial junk—making them 100% Curly Girl Method approved.

✅ What to Use in the Curly Girl Method

1. Gentle Cleansers (No Sulfates)
   Use a clarifying shampoo once in a while to remove buildup.
   💧 Try: Growpoo Clarifying Shampoo
   It detoxes the scalp while keeping strands soft and hydrated.

2. Moisturizing Conditioners
   Hydration is everything. Use creamy conditioners to soften and strengthen.
   🧴 Try:

• Hair Dew Leave-In Conditioner

• Moisture Milk

3. Curl-Defining Stylers
   Lock in moisture and shape your curls without crunch.
   🌀 Try: Grow Glaze
   It defines, holds, and seals in moisture—without any flakes or stiffness.

4. Protein Treatments (Optional)
   Depending on your porosity, you might need protein to strengthen curls.
   💪 Try: Growtein Protein Treatment

🧴 Step-by-Step: How to Follow the Curly Girl Method

Step 2: Co-Wash or Moisturize
Cleanse with a conditioner or use a hydrating leave-in like Hair Dew to soften and detangle.

Step 3: Style on Wet Hair
Apply Grow Glaze to soaking wet hair in sections using the “praying hands” or scrunching method.
