For me, AOHR as a rinse out
AOGBP as a leave in
CJ CCCC (optional - sometimes I use it sometimes I don’t)
CJ AFG
Then any hard-hold gel.

Hi!  This place looks great! smile  Oops - haven’t done my siggy yet.

Can I make one plea though?  Can we have an all natural section?  I’m not big on products (or rather, my hair and scalp aren’t), so I’m always interested in all natural recipes and the like.

edit: my avatar looks like Alicia Douvall! LOL

Hair hates: aloe vera, gels of any kind, most conditioners (scalp issues)

Hi everyone,

As an American living in the British Isles, it was so frustrating to read on naturallycurly.com about all of the great products available in the U.S. knowing that it would cost a fortune to have them sent over here, so it’s really great to have the emporium and the forums.  One little question for the admins though; would it be possible to have links back to the rest of the British Curlies website from the forum site?  Thanks!

Hi Curly Connie, Welcome it is great to have you here. Yes I agree totally with your comment on linking back to the site. We are working on this at the moment grin so hopefully this will be sorted soon. Like you I looked on and wished we had our own home here in the UK which was what eventually motivated me to start British Curlies. I hope you have a great time here.Thank you so much for stopping by cheese Enjoy the Curl Forum Curlie!

I did try and start co-washing but then some pesky cones magically appeared on the ingredients’ list but getting on quite nicely with Naked products until they’re used up.

Thanks Keisha Jo. I have curls, I live in Cornwall… it just made sense.  smile

Just out of interest, how long has this site been up and running? I only found out about Curly Girl through a link on (I think) the handbag website and a few clicks later ended up here (thank goodness).

Will be boring the curls off anyone I know with less than poker straight hair and directing them this way.

yeah I intend to do the same. In fact I seem to be getting overwhelming urges to go up to any stranger I see with any sort of wavy or curly hair and tell them about this place! What we need are little business cards to randomly hand out to all the curlies out there!! Sort of a mission to bring hair salvation to all fellow curlies! LOL

Hey Poppins, You are too kind but I totally know the feeling when you see a Curlie walking around who needs our help smile I have stopped Curlies in the street and handed cards out, I am totally on a mission to empower all girls with Curls in the UK. Any member interested in handing out a few cards please PM me. Cheers Curlies wink
