How did I manage to live 44 years on this earth and not know the secret to caring for my fabulous curly hair?!This book showed me how to wash it, condition it, style it and even cut it if I were so inclined. My eyes are opened and I have fallen in love with my crazy curls!If you have curls of any kind, or even wavy hair, this is a MUST read. Truly it is.

I'm disappointed that this book wasn't what I thought it would be. I hoped for more technical information and techniques, and less guru style fluff.If you are struggling to accept your hair, it's a bit Chicken-Soup for the Soul, with the Curly Confessions, and the 12 Steps Promise (to not abuse your hair anymore) and the hair horoscopes.I was personally hoping for more balanced insight on porous/texture aspects of hair rather than main focus on the shape of each curl.I will say I found the hairstyles nice to include, as well as the recipes for protein masks and diy gel spray, and tips for cutting your own hair, but I was disappointed that none of the videos were supported by my device.Overall, not for me, and there is as much if not more info in blogs that don't cost $10.

I have hair like Natasha Lyonne, 2c/3a curls. I can see how a lot of these tips work for other people, especially very curly hair. I have frizzy, upon frizzy, upon frizzy, wavy/swavy sometimes curly hair with seborrheic dermatitis/psoriasis (weird oily/dry scalp).Edit: I'm changing my review from a 4 to a 5. To those who feel discouraged, there is hope! Since the first time I reviewed the book I cut about 10 inches of my hair off. It rests at my shoulders now, and is a lot easier to experiment with since there is so much less of it. As of May 2015, no heating tools have touched my head, and it has worked out very nicely! It is almost the end of the summer and I have not cursed the humidity once.I'm still using a sulfate-free shampoo (AG Fast Food Shampoo), and I switch between Tresemme Un(done) conditioner (silicone and glycerin free) and Yes to Carrots conditioner. I use a leave-in conditioner and Ouidad Climate Control Gel (alcohol free). Navigating the curly hair products has been a lot easier after reading this book, and I think its a good resource for anyone who wants better curls.

It is not possible to give advice about care for every type of curly hair, since individuals' hair varies widely. However, this book attempts to classify several different types of curls and gives some general principles that the reader can apply, through trial and error, to find out what works best for her (or his) own curly head.If not properly cared for, much curly hair does not appear curly but just frizzy, poufy, flyaway, and out of control. If this describes your hair, it's possible that you have curls and don't know it. Much of the hair care advice that we get for straight hair is actually the opposite of what should be done for curly hair, so if you start the Curly Girl regimen, you might be surprised to find that you actually do have natural curls.But that's only half the book. The other half is a sort of manifesto. Apparently, very many people with curly hair have had traumatic experiences where they did not know how to care for their hair nor did anyone else (such as their mothers and hairdressers). Some were told their hair was unruly, wrong, "I can't do anything with it," or "unprofessional." Curly hair is treated as a problem to be solved. There is a strong ideological component to this book, to help naturally curly folks get over the mental block caused by this societal attitude. Sprinkled throughout the book are testimonies by men and women about how they came to accept their curls. There is even a tongue-in-cheek "12 Steps" at the back (some of them somewhat contrived) to lead the reader accept his or her curly hair and commit to care for it as such.There are also numerous "curl" puns sprinkled throughout. The tone is light, like a woman's magazine article extended to book length.I thought the curly-as-identity stuff was a little heavy-handed. One of the women, in her testimony, even refers to it as the "curly girl religion" (unless that was a typo for regimen), and that's not too far off the mark. I am naturally curly, but I don't think of myself as belonging to a victim class. Still, the book has good information about hair care, and I can imagine that some people might have a very hard time giving up straightening their hair, and would need all the identity stuff as an encouragement. The strong ideological tone grew out of the author's own experience of starting out hating, and then learning to love, her hair.According to the book, an estimated 65% of women have hair that has some amount of natural curl to it (varying from waves to "fractal" curls). I can only imagine that very many of them must be straightening theirs. Although I don't by any means think of straight-haired folks as oppressors nor do I want anyone with straight hair to feel inferior either, I do hope that an increasing number of curly-haired women decide to go natural, so that curly hair can become as normal, professional, and serious a look as straight.

I have always had what others refer to as 'The Bush' as in this wad of curly frizz on my head. Now my hairs mellowed out into what looks like long beach curls. Or so I've been told. Either way I used a few techniques from this book, like how to cut my hair without fraying it. Using oils while it's drying so that there's no frizz. And realizing that I don't need to use shampoo, which is still scary to me.What I really like about the book is that it doesn't read like a manual. It reads like someone with experience is telling you how to take car of your hair. It has relate able stories from fellow curly girls, about their curls. Hair style ideas, and even a Curly Girl Horoscope. My physical copy came with a DVD too, for those that need visuals when cutting their own hair or styling it.On the downside, my hairdresser thinks I'm a snob now. Because I want my hair cut dry, and I show her exactly where to cut. This book gave me too much confidence/authority over my hair. Read at your own risk.
