Why the Curly Girl Method keeps failing Indian hair
The Curly Girl Method was developed in the early 2000s by Lorraine Massey for a North American and European market. The products it recommends, the protein-moisture balance it prescribes, and the dew-point rules it insists on were calibrated for hair that grows in temperate humidity. Indian curly hair grows in a different climate, off a different scalp, and with a different porosity profile. Applying the same protocol produces the same result every time: frizz by noon, scalp buildup within a week, and the creeping suspicion that your curls are simply broken.
