This page explains how content on Hair Is Curly is created, checked, and corrected, so you know exactly what you are reading and who is behind it.
Who writes our content
Every guide on Hair Is Curly carries a byline from a real contributor whose background matches the topic:
- Lisett Perez, a Los Angeles hairstylist with 25 years of experience, covers cuts, styling, routines, and salon-informed product use.
- Tim Jones, an IAT-certified trichologist, covers hair science, scalp health, porosity, and men’s curly hair.
- Dr. Erine Kupetsky, a board-certified dermatologist with an MS in Clinical Pharmacology, covers skin conditions and active ingredients.
- Karla Isasi, a model and beauty content creator, covers trends, hair color inspiration, and product first impressions.
A contributor’s credentials explain the perspective behind an article. They do not turn this website into a clinic or a consultation service — see our health disclaimer in the Terms of Use.
How we research
Medical, dermatological, and ingredient claims are supported by reputable sources such as the American Academy of Dermatology, Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, the NIH, and peer-reviewed research, linked inside the article where the claim is made. For real-world product experiences, we may also study documented customer feedback and community discussions — as user-experience patterns, never as medical evidence.
How we review products
Product reviews describe what a product claims to do, how it behaves (texture, slip, hold, cast, buildup), who it suits, who should skip it, and how it compares to alternatives. Where testing is first-hand, we say so. Where it is not, we say that too — no invented client stories, no fake before-and-afters, no fabricated ratings.
Honesty rules we never break
- No fake reviews or testimonials, from us or from anyone else.
- No undisclosed paid content: sponsored posts are labeled, and paid links are marked as such.
- No claims we cannot substantiate, on products, results, or credentials.
- Affiliate commissions never influence a verdict — details in our Affiliate Disclosure.
Corrections and updates
Formulas, prices, and science change. When we learn that something in a published article is outdated or wrong, we correct it and update the article’s modified date. If you spot an error, email contact@hairiscurly.com with the article link — we genuinely want to know.
Guest and sponsored contributions
Outside contributions are accepted only when they meet the same standards: relevant to hair, beauty, or skin care, honestly sourced, and clearly disclosed if any payment or free product is involved. Details are on our Write for Us page.
