How I Detangle Natural Hair
Knowing how to detangle natural hair has made a huge difference in my ability to manage my hair. In a previous post, I shared a good product to detangle natural hair while dry. This post focuses on detangling hair while wet.
I part my hair in 4 to 6 sections and cleanse my hair with Nexxus Therappe. Even though it contains sulfates, it is not drying to my hair whatsoever. In fact, it is very moisturizing and I love it. It’s my #1 shampoo although I occasionally switch it up in an attempt to use up other shampoos that I have on hand.
After cleansing my hair, I follow-up with Paul Mitchell The Detangler. This conditioner is super rich and offers crazy slip. My detangling comb glides through my hair with ease. I’ve tried a number of detanglers and this one has been my #1 in-shower detangler for years. Working in small sections keeps things very manageable and helps me detangle natural hair really fast. I used this detangling conditioner while having relaxed hair and transitioning hair and it worked well even way back then. Just an all-around product.
After my hair is properly detangled, I follow-up with Nexxus Humectress. This conditioner is rich and moisturizing. It softens my hair within minutes without heat. This translates to a faster wash day. Afterwards, I apply leave-in products and air dry.
Finding a good detangling product is critical to hair regimen success and growing long, healthy hair. Paul Mitchell The Detangler is a consistent win for me.

July 4, 2018 at 10:05 pmHey! I think I’ll pick up some of the Paul Mitchell…lately I’ve been in a hair rut because I somehow did a protein overload to my hair. So it’s dry and hard and can’t hold a curl. So I’ve been living in a bun! Anyway I’ll pick it up on my next haul and report back ❤️
