"In the style of David Bowie"
This week, Dylan and Lauren weigh in on the great wet vs dry curly hair-cutting debate. We discuss The Curly Person Method (CPM) approach to cutting and ask whether curly hair always falls into the same curl pattern.We review Olaplex. Does it live up to the hype and what should we really give it out of 10?In listeners’ questions, we discuss why it is, in fact, perfectly ok to brush your curly hair.We finish with our one cool thing which might be related to curly hair, but almost certainly isn’t. Dylan @thecurlpusherLauren @lovecurlyhair_lauren

“My main memory is having a really sticky neck”
Join us as Lauren and Dylan dive deeper into The Curly Person Method (CPM).Today we discuss heat. Is curly/wavy hair forever condemned to being “air-dried” or is it in fact ok to use heat? If ok, then how hot is too hot? (Let’s be honest, the fact that we even discuss this part probably tells you what we think.)We review the product Aveda Nutri-Plenish Leave-in Conditioner.There are further listeners’ questions, where this week we tackle a biggy; the ubiquitous protein-moisture balance. What are they and is there even a balance?This is all rounded-off with our one cool thing, which could be curly hair related, but probably won’t be. Dylan @thecurlpusherLauren @lovecurlyhair_lauren
