Curly Girl Day 1

So remember the book I talked about a while back by Lorraine Massey called "Curly Girl" , well after reading this book I was very interested in trying this CURLY GIRL method.

Basically the CURLY GIRL method is removing sulfates and silicone's from your hair products ...because these ingredients dry out curly hair.

Today is Day 1 for me, I plan on trying this for a couple weeks to see if I notice any improvement, If I don't notice an improvement, believe me I will be back to using my silicone's lol!

If you guys want a basic short version of the book just check out this link to see what the CURLY GIRL method is all about!!!! http://www.wikihow.com/Follow-the-Curly-Girl-Method-for-Curly-Hair

So basically I washed my hair for the last time with a sulfate shampoo, afterwards I used a conditioner that contained no silicone's ( you can use any conditioner you want just make sure the ingredients don't include anything ending with the word -cone), and for styling I used gel (with no alcohol).

Actual products I used were :

Mixed Chicks Shampoo, Giovanni Organic Conditioner, and DevaCurl Arc Angel Gel

I have to admit, since this is the first day my hair is a little frizzy from using the sulfate shampoo... but my hair feels really soft and clean like there is no build up on it (if you use conditioners or products with silicone you can always feel a film over your hair).

So far so good, I will continue this process to see if I like the results and I will keep you guys posted!!! Wish me luck.

If any of you would like to join me in this Curly Girl Journey feel free to email me or leave a comment! This should be very interesting!!!
