| Haven't been here in awhile... it's been one busy year for me. Just wondering what naturals use for detangling your hair. I have the worst time with dentangling my locks |

Well currently, I am using Eqyss Avocado Mist Detangling Spray and Premier Rehydrant Spray to detangle. They work like a charm. I got them from http://eqyss-online.stores.yahoo.net/equineproducts.html I also did my research, these products are safe for human crossover usage. ------------- Me and you, your cousin and your momma too rollin on da strip on bow's |

| the avocoda mist is good, but also i find that if your porosity levels are current meaning you can retain moisture or water in your hair where its soaking it up like a sponge.. if you finish your routine after conditioner treatments with a AVC rinse, i can comb my hair straight thru with little tangling, but the key is to rinse the AVC out with cold/cool water b/c it closes the cuticles back up. Open cuticles and raised cuticles are responsible for tangling, dry looking hair, that does not shine or hold moisture well. When the cuticles are raised in this manner, the cortex may be exposed and the hair becomes weakened and vulnerable. High pH's increase the porosity of the hair. Also a great product to get your porosity levels back in balance is porosity control by roux.. i use this b4 i do my AVC rinse and towel dry my hair, take a wide tooth comb and start at the ends and it runs straight thru it.. |

I use nexus humectress conditioner. I can comb through my hair with no problem, after 30 mintues with that stuff on my 4a hair. ------------- Natural since March 2006 No "heat" challenge for Winter 08-09 public.fotki.com/Vanity3 keepitsimplesista.ning.com/profile/Vanity1920 |

I stopped detangling outside of the shower cuz I was noticing too much hair in my Denman all of a sudden so now I slap Vatika coconut oil on dry hair and then hit the shower to dentangle under warm steamy water with my denman and that has saved me time and a huge headache lol ------------- http://public.fotki.com/blackhoney112/hair_album/101505_.html - Hair album pw:Romeo |
