Curly hair can be very vocal when it comes to telling you it doesn’t like something you’re doing! ❌ One of the signs is becoming stick straight at the top of your head, without any clear sign of curling up anytime soon.
Here’s some common reasons our curls may do this:

1. You’re brushing your curls 💆‍♀️ Which can cause the root of your hair to relax over time due to the repetitive tension. 

2. Tight ponytails: Similar to the first point, doing tight hair styles over time can cause your curls to pull straighter, especially near the front of the head. Try to switch out of these styles every now and then to give your curls a break 💗

3. Oil buildup: Haven’t clarified in a while? This could be leaving your hair weighed down due to natural oil production, and the oils in our hair products. We recommend clarifying once a month to remedy this ✅

Come see us and we’d be happy to provide your monthly clarifying service here in shop, where we can talk more curl tips and tricks 🧚🏼‍♀️✨
Wondering when you should be using your clarifying shampoo?
Here are some Do’s and Don’t’s we like to follow ✨

Want curls that pop and stay bouncy all day? Start with hydration! 💧
The trick to soft, defined curls is all about giving them the moisture they crave. Here’s how:

1️⃣ **Spray with water**: Mist curls with water to refresh and hydrate in-between your wash days. You don’t need a heavy leave-in, you’re keeping it simple!
2️⃣ **Utilize a smoothing technique**: Use your hands to distribute moisture evenly and define each curl by smoothing them with your palms or fingers ( we show you how in our Discover Your Curls service 😉✨)
3️⃣ **No heat**: Avoid excessive heat styling. Curls thrive when they’re left to air dry or gently diffused. 
4️⃣ **Skip the heavy oils**: While oils can be great for your skin, they can weigh down curls. and cause dehydration over time. Go for a lightweight, curl-friendly serum or cream for the perfect bounce.

What makes Curls Gone Wild different from other salons?

Curls Gone Wild was the first salon in Arizona to specialize exclusively in naturally curly hair. Our team is trained in curl-specific techniques developed over 20+ years, and we never straighten or alter your natural texture. Instead, we empower you with the knowledge and tools to love and care for your curls every day.

We operate by appointment only to ensure each client receives the personalized care and attention they deserve. You can easily book by texting us at (480) 353-8369, and we’ll help you schedule the right service for your curl needs.

We recommend starting with “Discover Your Curls”, a hands-on curl education experience. This service includes a personalized consultation, wash, condition, styling tutorial, and product recommendations to help you build a routine that supports your unique curl pattern.

Yes! We welcome clients of all ages. Whether you’re a parent learning how to care for your child’s curls or a teen ready to embrace your natural texture, our stylists will guide you through curl-friendly techniques in a gentle, educational, and encouraging environment.

No. At Curls Gone Wild Salon, we specialize exclusively in curly and naturally textured hair—and we never straighten curls as part of our services. That means no heat styling, blow drying straight, or chemical straightening. Our signature dry cut, known as the CGW Cast / Dry Cut, is performed on clean, dry, and naturally styled curls so we can cut each curl in its natural pattern. If you typically wear your hair straight, we do not recommend this service. Our approach is all about enhancing and celebrating your natural curl pattern, not altering it. If you’re transitioning away from heat styling or just beginning to embrace your curls, we suggest starting with our “Discover Your Curls” session to learn proper care and styling methods tailored to your texture.
