Curl Girls is a six-part American reality television series that premiered on Logo on June 18, 2007. "Curl Girls" is the first lesbian reality show on a major television channel. It chronicles the friendships and careers of Gingi, Michele, Melissa, Erin, Vanessa, and Jessica—six young lesbian women.
Despite their differences, all the women enjoy surfing. They compete to win a trip to Hawaii, but the competition strains their relationships.
Hit the waves with the Curl Girls: Gingi, Michele, Melissa, Erin, Vanessa, and Jessica as they talk about relationships, tattoos, and surf etiquette.

As Gingi and Vanessa talk about their shared love of design, controversy over Gingi's sexuality emerges. Michele can get Rebecca to judge the surfing competition if the girls agree to make it a fundraiser for an environmental organization, The Surfrider Foundation. The teams practice and Michele hosts a backyard barbecue where Jessica and Melissa have a talk.
Gingi tries to make peace with Jessica as the girls take a trip to San Diego to ride some different waves and hire a private instructor. Michele praises Gingi's progress in the private lessons while Erin questions Jessica's commitment to their team.
