This holiday season, we are not the only ones who want to spend time with our family, our curls do to! 💗

Here at CGW salon, we believe every curl belongs to its own family- and when it’s not properly hydrated, it cannot achieve this goal! Anytime our curls our dehydrated, the result is frizz. In order to bring our curls to their natural definition, we must give them the water and smoothing they need! 💧

What is the difference between a “Strong hold” hair product and a “Soft hold” hair product? 
Here’s the tea ☕️ 

Strong-hold products like gel and hairspray lock your curls in place, giving you definition, frizz control, and long-lasting shape—perfect for big events or all-day curl security. It can also make refreshing easier the next day! It comes with a little crunch that is easy to work out and soften if you have a few minutes ⏰✨

Soft-hold products like creams and leave-ins give your curls a natural, touchable finish (little to no crunch) with light control, moisture, and bounce- ideal for everyday touchups and softness ☁️💧

Both have their own benefits—just choose based on the vibe and touchability you want for your curls ✨
The answer: Absolutely!
It’s very common to have:
🌀2B waves in front and 3A curls underneath
➰4A coils near the crown and 3B by the nape
✨A mix of all, from coils and curls to waves!
Luckily, our routine does not have to differentiate much to accommodate our different curl types. These different textures can coexist harmoniously within the same routine- and the right curly cut can actually make the different textures compliment one another!

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.
