Curly Girl
by: Lorraine Massey, Deborah Chiel


Editorial Review:

Curly girls of the world unite! Sixty-five percent of women have naturally curly hair, but for too long too many of these women have either been at a loss on how to care for their hair properly or, worse, have gone through life pretending they have straight hair. No more. Lorraine Massey, a professional hairstylist and passionate proponent of curly hair, celebrates the curly girl way of life, from hair care to carefree attitude.

Beginning with The Curly Girl's Twelve-Step Program (Step Three: I will accept that the scalp and hair are two different entities with completely different needs, and I will treat them accordingly), CURLY GIRL is an illustrated how-to, support group, and tongue-in-cheek manifesto all in one.

There are tips on shampoo (never daily), conditioners (use lots), drying, combing (only when wet and well-conditioned), styling, getting the right cut, and how to Heal Thy Hair after years of strong detergents and damaging blow-dryers. There are before-and-after photographs, Curly Cues, self-help tests, confessions from curly girls, advice to take to your stylist. And for girls seeking their inner curl, compassion and encouragement to let their hair break free-and to put the fear of frizz behind them forever.

Because from now on there's no such thing as a bad hair day.

Wealth of info that needs some updating.:

This message in this book will shock those who haven't heard of it. Not shampooing? That's disgusting!...But, it really isn't. Cleansing the scalp with a product equivalent to dishwasher detergent, to me, is more disgusting than cleansing the scalp with a gentle, moisturizing conditioner. If given the chance, the methods described in this book can work wonders on the closet curly girl. However, the book is definitely outdated and could use a new edition. Updated information and pictures would really help... more info

Wish I had known this years ago...:

I like this book for two reasons. First, it has practical information and advice for maintaining and styling naturally curly hair. This is down to earth advice, for real people with no professional hair styling skills and a busy life. The models in the book look real, which is refreshing in itself. There is also information about how curly hair should be cut, which unfortunately many hair professionals do not seem to know.
Second, it is a motivational book. I did not like , or even understand, my own... more info

I Love my Curls Now!:

I imagine like most people with naturally curly hair, I have struggled with finding the perfect 'product' and care routine for my hair. My bathroom cabinet had a whole shelf dedicated to practically full bottles of de-frizzing, curl-enhancing, mane-taming products that I bought, tried, and was disappointed with. I even contemplated straighteners. I am so glad I bought this book instead!
Naturally Curly hair is DIFFERENT than straight hair, and requires DIFFERENT care. It needs to be treated like a... more info
