What Does "Curly Girl Caution" Mean?
Caution-rated products contain ingredients that are borderline for the Curly Girl Method. The two main categories are:
- Water-soluble silicones — these silicones (like PEG-modified dimethicone) can be washed out with gentle sulfate-free cleansers, so they don't cause the same buildup as non-water-soluble silicones.
- Volatile alcohols — these alcohols evaporate quickly and don't remain on the hair, but some CG purists prefer to avoid them.
Many CG followers are comfortable using caution-rated products. The distinction exists to give you transparency about what's in your products so you can make an informed choice based on your hair's needs.
