Shi Curly introduces CGM.
What is the CGM “curly hair method”?
Let us start by explaining what is curly hair!
Curly hair is distinguished by its characteristics from other forms of hair, as it is characterized by multiple coils that give it a distinctive look and feel. However, curly hair requires different care methods than what we commonly know.
Many researchers and specialists began to offer different methods for curly hair care, and perhaps the most widespread of these methods is the (Curly Girl Method), known as CGM, which was presented to us by Lorraine Massey, in her book (Curly Girl: The Handbook). Here, in this article, we will discuss the basics of the method and present to you our expert opinion and thoughts regarding the method.

CGM is a specially designed and effective way to care for naturally curly hair, and may not be suitable for other hairstyles. Following its basics does not guarantee to reach the expected result.

It seems as though it is not enough, as this method was published more than 20 years ago, and although many people around the world still follow it, this does not mean that it is completely correct.
