I just use CVS hair detangler of DG (dollar general) hair detangler- both of them have the same ingredients as the Johnson and Johnson's no more tangles. I shampoo, spray with detangler- comb thru and then condition/deep condition my hair as usual.

I have Mane n Tail Detangler on my shopping list for the next time we order anything online. I have heard that it is really good. I am glad you found something that works for you.

I used Main & Tail Detangler Spray yesterday and it was like 'WOW, someone hit the easy button on my hair!' I was able to get a shower comb through it without many problems!
Thanks everyone for all the suggestions!

Elucence is my best detangler. I made a thread on it to share with everyone. It's not a spray though. The Dove mist is a good one also. I've also had great results from Hask Placenta hair repair spray.

Try the New range Dove Sheer moisture mist leave in conditoner (baby blue spay bottle ) - I tell you works wonders with detangling and conditioning your hair with a lovely feel and look. See Taggi' s testomony under ' I found the miricle mist ' . Others are getting in on the program including me with gr8 results.

Wow guys, these are all good suggestions! I think whatever product I use, I will have to add extra oil, either castor oil or Jojoba oil (which by the way, can I get at a Healthfood store?)

Also with thick natural hair the secret is to section with ponytail holders, wet each section in turn with the spray and then comb from bottom to the roots. I then tie into braids to sleep overnight and that will do heaps to keep the tangles away. With my thick armpit length natural hair it takes me just 10-15 mins to detangle the whole head.
Better still detangle in the shower with conditioner slathered onto your hair. However I'm a daily detangler so I use the pantene spray to wet it when not washing.

I really like the Pantene light detangling spray. Not only is it good at getting the tangles out but I've also noticed also that breakage is minimised. I add jojoba oil to the mixture and give it a good shake.
I tried V05 Miracle Mist and breakage seemed to increase, which stopped when I returned to Pantene.
Yeah the baby line of hair care products, you shoulk be able to find it in the baby section or even in th health and beauty section depending on how your Wal-Mart is setup. And as always you can ask someone who works there. Here is a picture of the product so you will recognize it if you want to try it:

just chemicals that cause build up and eventually prevent moisture form gettin into your hair. but like i said, if you clarify regularly, that shouldnt be a problem. the spray smells good too. very lightweight
since you say you're trying to comb it while its wet, what conditioner are you using? does it have good slip? you can castor oil or another type of oil or honey to it to give it slip or buy a better one.
I use Avalon Organics Rosemany Conditioner. I guess I could add Castor oil to it (my conditioner cost $7 regualar price for 11oz so a sistah won't be buying another one anytime soon )
Can you recommend an organic clarifying shampoo? Do I have to use a clarifying conditioner with it?

hmm, are you trying to comb your hair when its dry??? girl, if you dont want headaches, you have to comb or detangle with lots of conditioner in the shower or out of the shower.
another good one is pantene detangling spray. it has cones but if you clarify regularly, you should be fine
I am trying to comb it when it is wet, but I litterally have a headache from trying!
What is "cones" in Pantene?

anyway, one good detangler is surge, drying and has protein so its not advisable to mix with aphogee.
another good one is pantene detangling spray. it has cones but if you clarify regularly, you should be fine
ive tried rusk detangler and lots more and none of them worked as good as the two mentioned above

Ladies, I'm new to this whole transitioning thing and its been a while since I haven't been able to get a comb through my hair. I use a leave in, (Aphogee) that strenghtens and helps with tangles, but not quite enough. I'm still getting some short hairs when I comb it out.
Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can mix with it? I need it to be a spray because it's hard to get to my roots. I had forgotten how thick my natural hair was.
I have been eyeing the "Afro Detangler" on the growafrohairlong.com website, but I'm not trying to drop $49 on a 1/2 gallon of something that I'm not sure will work!
