Detangling hair, especially curly hair, can be tedious. But there are ways to detangle your curly hair without destroying it. All you need is a little patience and follow our tips.
In this blog, Somavie will give you 8 tips to Detangle Your Curly Hair.
First What Causes Hair Tangling?
Tangles are caused when the outer layer of your hair (cuticle) is damaged and opens up. The open cuticles block each other and form knots. A hair knot forms when two single strands of hair wrap around each other to become intertwined.
If this happens to a couple of strands, it gets difficult to remove these knots (tangles), especially in textured hair (wavy or curly).
Factors that contribute to hair tangling:
- Harsh hair care products
- Use curly enemies’ products.
- Massaging hair too hard while shampooing
- Heat styling
- Rubbing hair with a towel
- Not brushing hair daily or overbrushing
- Sleeping with your hair down
- Split ends

After you’ve washed and conditioned your strands, as usual, apply a conditioner at the tips and move upwards towards the roots.

Pick up your wide-toothed comb: After that, find where the thick and thin masses of tangles are. Separate one tangle at a time.

Also, it is a quick fix when you are out and have no time. Detangling sprays can be used on both dry and damp hair. They need not be rinsed out. The sprays contain ingredients to soften your hair so that detangling becomes easy.Where are your tangles? They’re probably toward the ends of your hair, right? So, starting from the top and combing downward will just make them bigger and more tangled. Instead, start with your ends and work your way up to the root.
