Hey ladies, I brand new to the board and I need some help removing my Wagman NB without losing my hair in the process.  Should I use some conditioner while combing out the braids?  If so, what kind?

How did you install the hair? Pinch braids? Tracks?

I'm not sure you need conditioner.

No conditioner needed.. After you carefully remove the tracks (I assume you installed tracks) you will simply take a comb and taking your time simply comb through the braid starting at the end and undo the braid.. You shouldn't need any conditioner..
 
Once you remove the braids.. Comb your hair thoroughly to help release the trapped shedding hair from the braid. Make sure you get all of this trapped hair out before you wet your hair so that you don't have issues with matting. Then wash and condition your hair like normal..

Hey DivaVocals!
I'm so mad at BHM for shutting down for maintenance without warnng in the middle of my hair crisis, so I found hairboutique on google, lol.
 
My hair came out okay with the exception of a dreadlock that was in the nape of my head Angry I panicked and didn't know what to do so I googled " how to remove locks without cutting hair, lol" and surprisingly I got it out.

Good points Malibu.  Exactly my thoughts.

Hi Mimi84...welcome to HairBoutique.com.  We love to have you even though it is sad that BHM is temporarly doing maintenance. 
 
If you don't mind, we would love to hear what type of install you had and also how you did get the lock out w/out cutting.
 
Thanks in advance and welcome again.
