Hi--
I have pubic-length dark reddish brown hair, but two major sections have been knotted HORRIBLY. I had it in a ponytail, ignored it for a week, and this was the result. I think the hair absorbed the perspiration on my back, and then curled up onto itself.
So far, nothing works, just hair by hair detangling, and alot of that even breaks off. A FOOT of hair is in a tight 1x1x3 knot on the left, and the right is looser, but big, a foot of hair in a 1 x2x4 softer knot.
1). Has anyone REALLY had success getting them out?
2)Is the hair ruined afterwards? Should I keep trying? Last week I spent @30 hours at it...I will keep at it IF I can just hear that it WILL work!!! This is so awful...I don`t want to lose this, AND it`s hair from the back, so it would be REALLY noticeable. Thanks! ~Distraught

have you tried using a detangling spray or leave in conditioner on the knots?

Honestly, I`m not sure it is worth it. It sounds like you are having a really hard time getting the knot out & any hair that in coming out is breaking off or isn`t in good condition. I would expect this to continue. I don`t know of anyone that has successfully been able to detangle a mess of hair that large, & as I just stated above, even if you were to be moderatly successful, I can`t imagine your hair being in very good condition afterwards. Sorry.

If your hair is that messed up, go to a good beauty salon and let the professional hair people deal with it!
