Start with a wide-tooth comb to gently detangle hair, starting from the ends and working your way up to the roots. This reduces stress on the hair shafts and minimizes breakage.
Use a moisturizing conditioner suited to your hair type to keep hair hydrated and smooth. Well-moisturized hair is less prone to tangling as dry hair tends.
Washing hair too frequently can strip it of natural oils, making it more prone to tangling. Aim to wash hair every 2-3 days or as needed based on your hair type and lifestyle.
Use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent hair tangling while you sleep. Alternatively, tying hair up in a loose bun or braid can also minimize tangles.
Weather conditions like wind and humidity can contribute to tangling. Wear hats or scarves to shield hair from environmental factors that can cause tangling.
Eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals supports overall hair health. Nutrient deficiencies can lead to dry, brittle hair prone to tangling.
Regular trims every 6-8 weeks help eliminate split ends, which can contribute to tangling as damaged ends catch on healthy hair strands.
Before using heat styling tools, apply a heat protectant spray or serum to shield hair from damage and reduce tangling caused by heat exposure.
Brush or comb hair gently before showering to remove knots and tangles. Wet hair is more fragile, so prepping beforehand prevents further tangling during washing.
Opt for hair accessories that are gentle on hair, such as seamless hair ties, soft scrunchies, or clips that don’t snag or pull strands.
