Detanglers

Hair detanglers help you work through knots with less pulling. Leave-in sprays and creams add slip to wet or dry hair, and a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush does the rest. Start at the ends and work upward in small sections.

Choosing a detangler

Sprays and lightweight creams are easy to use on fine hair, while richer leave-in creams suit thick, curly or coily hair. Look for a formula you can use on damp hair, because hair is most delicate when it is wet.

How to detangle gently

  • Divide hair into sections and hold each section above the knot.
  • Start at the ends with a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush, then move up as knots loosen.
  • Apply a little more product to stubborn knots rather than pulling harder.

Caring for hair while you detangle

Detangle before you shampoo if your hair knots easily, and again after conditioning while it is slippery. Dry, brittle hair breaks more easily, so be patient and avoid brushing hard when hair is soaking wet.
