Step 1. Check your hair for the most noticeable knots

It is advisable to gently melt them with your fingers rather than with the hard teeth of the comb. Untie these knots gently, without tearing your hair. Make long, even movements to avoid damaging the strands.

Advice

  • Never use a brush on damp or wet hair. It will only jerk and break them without being able to remove the knots. Use a wide-toothed comb.
  • It is best to comb long hair after washing and moisturizing it with a detangling product. If possible, comb them by distributing the conditioner in your hair, before rinsing them. It will be easier than combing dry hair.
  • If you have trouble brushing your hair, you probably have split ends. A cut to shorten them slightly may be the healthiest and least painful solution.
  • Wash your hair regularly.

Warnings

  • Combing or brushing your hair from the root can cause knots to appear. Always start with the tips.
  • Be gentle!
