Curly Girl Vegan Products
Which products are curly girl approved and also vegan friendly? I have compiled a list of hair care products that I know are cg approved and also vegan friendly and cruelty free. Not all products cover both, you can get a curly girl method approved conditioner but it may not be vegan and likewise you can get plenty of vegan conditioners but are they curly girl friendly?

Check out where to buy from in each section of the list below. Use this list of the best cruelty free curly hair products to find out what you can use that will be kind to your hair as well as kind to the environment and animals.
What is a vegan Hair product?
Vegan Hair products are made without animal derived ingredients. These products are deemed to be cruelty free as well.
Is a product vegan if it is natural?
No a product is not always Vegan even if it is natural. For instance Beeswax is a natural product but not it is not vegan. Bees are not treated kindly in the production of the wax so therefore the natural product Beeswax is not Vegan friendly or cruelty free.
How to check if your product is vegan friendly
Knowing how to check if a product is a Vegan Curly Girl Method Product can be very time consuming. You need to know what to look for on the product label. Anything animal derived is not vegan friendly.
- First check the label and look for a label such as ‘suitable for vegans’ or a certified vegan logo.
- Use the Peta website and their beauty without bunnies search tool
- Use an app to scan the label. Peta has a handy list of Vegan apps you can use to do this.
- You can also check your ingredients in this vegan checker
