How to check your ingredients lists.
You may begin to wonder how it is possible to find curly girl approved products yourself, without having already been told if it is safe or not. This was an issue I discovered at the start of my journey.
I found this website to be invaluable. Curlsbot

Whilst it shouldn’t always be relied upon for being 100% correct, it can assist in the right direction of finding what’s good and what contains nasties.
There are other sites out there too. Though I have been informed that some haven’t been updated in years, which is an issue as products develop, discontinue or use new ingredients or change quantities of those ingredients.
Two other examples of sites are is it CG and curlscan, both of which I am a bit wary of. I tend to always stay with curlsbot and if in any kind of doubt I will ask in any of the curly girl/guy groups on social media.
