Mid Range

British-founded curly hair brand built from an online community of textured-hair enthusiasts. Curlsmith launched in 2018 with food-inspired formulations — think superfood-rich blends designed to nourish curls without sulphates, silicones, parabens, mineral oils, or drying alcohols. Every product is vegan, cruelty-free, and PETA-certified. The range is organised into colour-coded lines (Moisture, Strength, Frizz Control, Volume, and Scalp) so you can target your specific curl concern. Originally created in London by co-founders Kate and Michal Berski, the brand was acquired by Helen of Troy in 2022 for $150 million. Products are manufactured in the US but widely available in the UK via Boots, LookFantastic, and the brand's own UK site. Curlsmith is one of the most CGM-aligned mainstream brands on the market — the vast majority of their products are Curly Girl Method friendly straight out of the bottle.
