Detangling that preserves length
Detangling hair… every naturalist’s headache!
It will help with overall healthy hair care, as improper detangling can result in split ends and damaged cuticles…
Fingers first :
Fingers are much more adept at detangling than combs, work through your tresses with them first. Gently pull tangles apart, working outward, you have a better chance of saving your hair. Then use a wide-tooth comb. They are much gentler on hair, or a brush with hard, wide bristles and a rubber base. Only detangle moist hair. Very dry and very wet hair is more likely to break. Start From The Ends and Work Your Way Up.

Don’t begin detangling from the middle or the root of your hair! You can’t detangle downward from the middle if the ends below it are tangled. Instead, begin detangling from the ends of the hair. Hold the ends of your hair with one hand and detangle with the other hand. Once the very end is detangled, begin detangling an inch above that. Continue detangling from a point higher than the one before until the section is completely detangled!
Plasticize hair before you detangle it
Plasticizing hair is softening it using a bit of water and a detangler. If you don’t have a detangler use a rinse-off conditioner if you are about to wash your hair or a moisturizer if you are just styling your hair.
Once a section is detangled, clip it out of the way, or loosely twist or braid it to prevent it from tangling again. Repeat this for all sections of the hair.
