Welcome to Curly Girl Approved.
A site to help you know what hair products are approved for the Curly Girl (or Guy) Method.

Never heard of the Curly Girl Method? A quick Google / YouTube search will be a good place to start.

However, in summary, we’re told the big no no’s for our curls are:
-Drying ingredients such as sulfates and harsh alcohols.
-Non-water-soluble ingredients that build up on the hair such as silicones, waxes and oils.

Considering the ingredients listed on most packaging is extensive, I’ve checked it out so that you don’t have to.

Where possible I have linked each item to a stockist; so that you are able to see the price and read the product reviews.


Although I have done my best to be accurate, be aware that ingredients do change. Please check back of the pack for up to date ingredients.
Some links on this site are affiliates links, these do not add any extra cost to the customer. Shopping through these links supports the further development of Curly Girl Approved.
