WHY I QUIT THE CURLY GIRL METHOD | MY RESULTS AND EXPERIENCE

Why I Quit The Curly Girl Method...

⬇️If you haven't seen my *original curly girl method* video, check it out here⬇️

⬇️The products I started out using with the curly girl method⬇️

⬇️By the end of my time doing the curly girl method, these were the only products I used⬇️
*I also shampooed once a week with the Not Your Mother's Naturals Shampoo*

In today's video I'm sharing with you guys why I stopped following the curly girl method. I always thought I had straight hair with a *very* subtle wave. Then, one of my subscribers recommended I try the curly girl method...so I did...and I realized that maybe I have wavy hair? Although the curly girl method was time consuming and tedious, I was intrigued by the fact that maybe my hair ISN'T straight (even though I love straight hair, it was just cool to think maybe I could try something different with my hair). So yes, at first I actually loved following the curly girl method. But over time, I started to get kind of annoyed with the whole process. Make sure you watch the entire video to hear all of my reasons for quitting.

Literallyyyy what u said at the end about competition! Bugs me so much that people don’t just appreciate everyone’s beauty

[CadaverQT]

Silky straight, mermaid waves, curls and coils - all pretty, just be proud of whatever kind you have

[mr.fahrenheit]

they have to make a wavy hair routine because i see so many wavys not doing well with the cgm

[miamay]

Okay so this is off topic but... YOUTUBE WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH THIS UPDATE?? I’m so used to scrolling to the bottom for comments... ok sry rant over 😂

[MinnieMousey]

yeah the curly girl method is definitely not for everyone

[lynn]

I never understand why videos like this have dislikes. Shes talking about why she stopped doing it and not pressuring an opinion. See it a lot on YouTube. Its curious

[jemappellemerci]

I’d consider you hair ambiguous. You can have it straight or wavy if you want it to be. Not everything fits in boxes 😂

[maddylovell-crane]

Not gonna lie, sick of people with really curly hair saying people who have hair that is wavy is just not curly enough for cgm. There are plenty of waveys who do well on cgm and some really curly people who don't get on with it. Honestly feel like their are some curlies who get so judgey of people with wavey hair trying to figure it out, like they are not 'good' enough for cgm

[mikayla]

I hope people who try the curly girl method have more respect for people with actual curly hair bc the amount of effort it takes to maintain our hair is way more than straight hair

[Boristic]

There are many curly girls with actually curly hair that question the “curly girl method.” I believe most of the tips are extremely helpful but others feel too restricting (I love heat, water soluble silicones, and my detangling brush). There are many different types of hair textures and porosity combinations. Don’t listen to rules, listen to your hair. If something works, stick with it. As a wavy, using the “curly girl method” feels a bit extreme.

[Karnabgas]

My hair is straight justa slight wave in it, I do the curly girl method, i don't scrunch or plop, just use the prducts like i would normally with straight hair, so... you can keep, the goal is not use bad ingridients

[lifexmorg]

I love the ending. There should be no competition. CGM was/is a way for wavy/curly/coily girls to learn to take care of their natural hair. It shouldn’t be a “trend” that makes people feel like they must try it (especially if your hair is more straight naturally). A lot of people, myself included, have realized it’s way too strict when you can just do whatever your hair likes in a fraction of the time even if it breaks the rules (& still get the same results, if not better). Just listen to your hair and do what makes you happy. :)

[madisonrussell]

I used the curly girl method for years thinking my hair was wavy. I recently stopped and realized my hair is actually straight and now it’s so much easier to style without the extra products and time

[hejda]

But I don't understand why people with pretty much straight hair are doing the curly girl method? Ofc it's time consuming for a person who's hair normally doesn't take any effort to manage and of course it's not gonna make your hair look good with so much product? For people with actual curly hair, this is the easiest way to get our hair look it's best

[ErinBrookes]

A lot of wavies do a modified cgm. It's not really a strict religion. lol

[mikaylaweaver]

You looked pretty with the curly hair but you still look very pretty with straight hair! I have straight hair too! Loved the video!

[GirlwithTheeCurls]

The curly girl method was created by the previous owner of devacurl, which not a lot of people follow it to a T. For my curls the only thing I take from the method is what ingredients I need to watch out for and thats it. From there you can create your own routine. The complete method is kinda bogus. Just find what works for you and keep in mind HOW you take care of your hair. ♡

[aspend.]

I feel like a problem with the curly girl method is that not all people have a secret wave in their hair and (this might sound mean) but with all the gel and products to try to keep the curls it just looks crunchy and not very good. I tried it for awhile and it just wasn’t my thing

When you first start the curly girl method you have to go through a transition period. In that time your hair and scalp is getting used to a healthy way of doing things. I can attest to this. I went though chemical damage and I’ve followed this method for 15 months now and my curls have really changed from stringy frizzy damaged hair to healthy happy beautiful soft ringlets

your hair texture is was what it is when you don’t do anything to it, if your hair is only curly when you put a ton of effort into it that’s not it’s natural texture
