How One Conversation in Portugal Started Curly Girl Method Club

For years, I believed my hair was simply difficult. Some days it looked wavy. Other days it puffed up into a frizzy mess. I'd spend ages trying different products, blow-drying it straight, or convincing myself that I just wasn't one of those women who naturally had beautiful curls. Looking back, I realise I wasn't alone. So many women grow up believing their hair is "just fluffy," "too frizzy," or "completely unmanageable," when the truth is often much simpler: they've never been taught how to care for their natural texture. Ironically,... Read more...

5 Frizz Mistakes You're Probably Making (And How to Fix Them)

If you've ever looked in the mirror after spending ages on your curls and thought, "Why is my hair still frizzy?", you're not alone. Here's the good news: frizz isn't something you have to fight. Most of the time, it's simply your curls asking for a little more moisture, a little more protection, or a slightly different routine. At CGMC®, we don't believe in chasing perfect hair. We believe in building simple habits that give you consistently healthier curls. Here are five of the most common mistakes we see and the... Read more...

Why Your Curly Hair Needs a Detox Shampoo (And How It Can Transform Your Curls)

Have your curls been feeling a little "off" lately? Maybe they're looking flatter than usual, feeling heavy at the roots, or refusing to hold their definition no matter how carefully you style them. If that sounds familiar, your curls might not need more products, they might need a reset. At Curly Girl Method Club®, we often see curlies reaching for extra leave-ins, styling creams, or masks when their hair loses its bounce. But sometimes the real issue is something much simpler: buildup. That's exactly why we created our Detox Build-Up... Read more...

Why We Created Bounce Back: The Protein Treatment for Curls That Need Their Life Back

If there’s one thing we hear all the time, it’s this: “My curls just don’t bounce like they used to.” The definition disappears after one day. The volume falls flat. Wash day starts looking less exciting and more frustrating. And most people assume the answer is simple: “Add more moisture.” But what if your curls don’t actually need more moisture? What if they need strength? We created Bounce Back because not every curl problem is a moisture problem. Sometimes curls lose their shape because they're missing structure. The Problem We...

How to Keep Your Curls Happy All Summer Long

Summer is great for sunshine, holidays, beach days, and spending more time outdoors — but for curls, it can also mean dryness, frizz, tangles, and loss of definition. Heat, humidity, UV exposure, chlorine, salt water, and even air conditioning can all affect the health of your curls. One day your hair feels soft and defined, and the next it suddenly feels dry, fluffy, and impossible to manage. The good news? Summer curl care doesn’t need to be complicated. With the right balance of moisture and frizz protection, your curls can... Read more...

Why We Created Magic Mask Fast‑Acting Deep Conditioner (and Why Your Curls Will Love It)

Ever had a wash day where your curls still felt dry, tangled, or frizzy — even after conditioning? That was exactly the problem we kept hearing from our community. Traditional deep conditioners often either take too long, weigh curls down, or leave residue that dulls your waves. We knew there had to be a better way. That’s why we created Magic Mask Fast‑Acting Deep Conditioner. We wanted a solution that delivers instant hydration, smoothness, and detangling — without the wait or the heaviness. Your curls and waves get the moisture... Read more...

Why We Created the Detox Build-Up Shampoo (and Why Your Curls Will Love It)

Is My Hair Even Wavy or Curly… or Is It Just Frizzy?

Be honest... have you ever stood in the mirror, grabbed a handful of your hair, and said —“Is this a curl? A wave? Or just one big cloud of chaos?” 😅 If you have, same.That question is literally why CGMC® exists. I used to think my hair was just frizzy, messy, unruly. Nothing more.Not curly. Not wavy. Just hard to deal with. But here’s what no one told me — and maybe no one’s told you either:Frizz is a strand of hair that's not hanging out with its mates.Not clumping.... Read more...

What Products Are Good for Wavy + Curly Hair?

Here’s the honest answer: it’s not really about products.It’s about ingredients. Because the truth is, one product could work brilliantly for one person and leave another with dry, frizzy, heavy hair — all because of what’s inside the bottle. So instead of asking, “Which product is best?”Ask, “What’s in it?”That’s what actually matters. At CGMC®, we learned this the long way — by going through it ourselves and listening to over 350,000 people with curls and waves.That’s why when I started CGMC®, I sold my flat to formulate a line...

Hair Oils That Enhance Curl Definition for Wavy Hair

(Or… do they?) Okay — I kind of tricked you with that title. Because the truth is, oils aren’t going to give your curls or waves definition on their own. That’s not what they do. But let’s talk about what they can do. And how to use them so you don’t end up feeling like you dipped your head in a chip pan. Oils: Not Good. Not Bad. Just Misunderstood. Oils are one of those ingredients that people either slather on or completely avoid — and honestly, the answer is... Read more...

Best Products for Curly + Wavy Hair to Reduce Frizz

Let’s get something clear: frizz isn’t the enemy.It’s just your hair waving the flag to say, “I’m dry” or “I’m unbalanced.”And once you understand that, everything gets easier. The truth is, frizz happens when your hair isn’t clumping together like it should.When curls and waves are hydrated, they group up — like friends at a party.When they’re dry? They drift apart.They lose their people. They start standing in random corners. That’s frizz. It’s a weird analogy, but it works — and once you see your curls as social creatures, you...

How to Create a Curly Wavy Hair Routine

Spoiler: You don’t have to. You’re here because you’re trying to figure out what works for your curls or waves.And honestly? You’re not alone. Most people land here after spending years in the cycle of “what do I try next?” So here’s the good news:You don’t have to come up with a routine.We’ve already done it — not just for ourselves, but alongside over 350,000 people just like you. At CGMC®, we built a routine that works in real life.Not one that only makes sense on TikTok.Not one that needs... Read more...

Affordable Leave-In Conditioners for Curly + Wavy Hair Types

Let’s talk about what “affordable” actually means — because I’ve been burned by both ends of the scale. I’ve bought “budget” leave-ins that needed half the bottle just to stop the fluff.And I’ve bought the luxury ones that left my hair coated, sticky, or stiff before I’d even finished styling. So when I created CGMC®, I made a promise:I will only ever sell something if it works. Not just looks good in your bathroom. That’s why we only sell one Leave-In Conditioner. Not because we couldn’t make more.Because we spent... Read more...

Where Can I Buy Top-Rated Curly + Wavy Hair Products Online?

Well... did someone call my name? I’m Heather — founder of CGMC®.I sold my flat to start this because, quite frankly, I was fuming. Every product on the shelf made promises that never delivered.They shouted things like “Argan Oil” on the front — then you flip it over and find out it’s 1% oil, buried under a long list of silicones.Not just disappointing — misleading. So I made something better.For us.Waves, curls, frizz, fluff, frustration — all of it. I formulated CGMC® without the stuff our community of 350k curlies... Read more...

Step-by-step tutorials for styling curly wavy hair at home

by CGMC® – Because we were tired of guessing too When we started CGM Club® back in 2017, it was out of pure frustration. The products didn’t work.The advice was confusing.And no one was showing you what to actually do — not in a way that made sense from your bathroom, with your life, and your hair. So we changed that. We created step-by-step tutorials because we knew most of us weren’t lazy — we were just overwhelmed.We weren’t asking for perfection. We just wanted someone to say:“Here’s how to... Read more...
