Caring for curly hair can be like looking after a high-maintenance tropical plant. It was a total mystery to me at the beginning; it’s taken years of research to perfect it, and I wouldn’t trust my neighbour to look after it.
The curly girl method is a delicate ecosystem - one wrong move, and I’m stuck with a week of bad hair. It’s scary enough trying a new curl cream, let alone adding a whole new step. Occasionally, though, I bravely try something new - in this case, an exfoliating shampoo - and I’m rewarded with incredible results.
