[@theshunnedBandersnatch]

My roots tangle a ton, too - even more than my ends 😂 Stretching my hair in braids or a bun the night before washing has helped. I also make sure to work out shed hairs from the root with my fingers & gently comb through the roots so as not to rip any hair out accidentally.

[@tararuiz4615]

Amber, this was a great video!! I recently trimmed my hair and began doing the same process you do once per week. I saturate my hair in water and a conditioner with tons of slip; I sleep overnight just so that my hair gets more moisture. I’m also VERY happy that you showed you shed hair after 7 days because I was thinking that my shed hair was too much. I have half the hairball you had but my hair is also about half the length of yours after my recent trim. Thanks for showing that it’s normal! This gave me life!!!! ❤️

[@lolarella2295]

omg you literally match my routine! Same aussie conditioner (which smells bomb) and i cant live without that tangle teezer! That and wearing a satin bonnet has improved my life sooo much! Gone are the days of 45 minute detangling i was far too familiar with as a kid lol

[@BSG0005]

Oh good to know! I just bought the Tangle Teezer and a silk bonnet. My hair is finally long, but it’s thin & fine so it gets matted after 1 night’s sleep now!

[@ANIONEJM]

this makes me so sad! my hair is about same length feels like it is a little more tighter curl pattern but really similar looking and i cant do this in 15 mins. Last week it took me 2 hrs before i washed my hair and then washing it took another hr then after i twist it maybe 15 max on my whole head and that takes another 2 hrs. With me washing it once a month it takes longer. I have changed my routine trying to wash now every week and it still takes me a long ass time lol

I haven’t brushed my hair since I went to the carnival with my parents which was about a week ago my hair gets tangles really easily and today I had to get in the bath so I took my hair down the started washing it, then put the shampoo in. Once it was time to get my hair brushed. (My mom said she wanted to brush is with the shampoo in or whatever it was called) It didn’t really hurt but it sounded very sticky. Like the comb was going to break, but after my mom doing my hair it’s back to normal, now I will make sure to always brush my hair. Because it gets way worse sometimes 😆

Just went through this yesterday. The left side of my head cooperated, the right side fought me with everything it had no matter how much water or conditioner I used. My hair shed like crazy. Granted, I hadn’t washed it in 3 weeks from a protective style, but it still seemed like a lot to me. My hair seems to be able to handle 2 weeks between washes with no issues but if I try to push it to week 3, my hair is not happy and lets me know by every hair wrapping itself around at least 3 of its neighbors and clumping as much as possible. And yet, I keep pushing to 3 weeks. When will I learn?

[@rocmonke15]

KiraiBK have you tried using apple cider vinegar with water to detangle ? I used to use that combo and I think some oil to detangle when I was taking down my mini twists after 3 weeks.

[@KiraiBK]

deeblaq+ That’s actually what I used and it worked on the right side, but not the left. I added conditioner and let it sit and it still didn’t work. I deep conditioned, nothing. So I added even MORE conditioner and finger detangled and it finally released the knots. My hair is past hip length, so finger detangling is not an option for me but in the areas I just couldn’t get through with a comb or detangling brush, I had no choice but to use my God-given tools.
