How to Get Easy To Detangle Hair

My Formula for Soft, Silky, Easy To Detangle Hair

Up until recently, I  never quite understood what it meant  to have soft, easy to detangle hair. For the longest time I thought detangling was something to be dreaded because running a comb through my wet hair used to be so difficult. My hair would snap, my scalp would become tender and I would lose tons of hair just from detangling.

Pity, I didn’t know then what I know now. That detangling can be a pain free process where the comb glides easily through your hair instead of snagging and breaking.

Here is how I get soft, silky,  easy to detangle hair every time I wash.

1. While in the shower, I wet my hair as I typically do before shampooing

 

2. I then pour a small amount of Vo5 Herbal Escapes moisturizing shampoo in the palm of my hands

 

3. Add 1/2 teaspoon (not more than 1 tsp) of baking soda on top of that

 

4. Using my fingers, I mix the shampoo and baking soda together until the baking soda is thoroughly blended with the shampoo and it forms a creamy mixture.

 

5. I then massage the shampoo mixed with baking soda throughout my hair as I normally would regular shampoo.

 

6. I rinse and repeat steps 2-5 until my hair feels clean. Typically I only need to shampoo twice.

 

7. I rinse out the last lather of shampoo and squeeze out the excess water from my hair

 

8. I then pour a good amount of Vo5 Herbal Escapes Moisturizing Conditioner (Freesia) into the palm of my hands and then massage into my hair from roots to ends.
   • I apply as much conditioner as needed to saturate all my hair.
   • My hair feels very slippery as this point since it’s thoroughly coated in conditioner.

 

9. I cover my hair with a plastic shower cap for the 5 or minutes it takes for me to finish showering

 

10. After  removing the shower cap, my hair is incredibly soft and slippery.

 

11. I then stand directly under the stream of the shower and begin to detangle with my wide tooth comb.
    • I start from the ends and work my way up to the roots.
    • There is absolutely no resistance. The combs glides right through my hair.

By the time I am finished detangling the conditioner is completely washed out. If not, I let the water run through my hair until the conditioner is all gone.

Please Note: I have only ever tried this in my own hair using the products listed below. Results may vary with different shampoo and conditioner. I have fine, naturally coily hair and this works wonders for me. Give it a try, what do you have to lose?
