This week’s Wash Day Experience focus is on Detangling. Since I’ve already written exhaustively on the subject of detangling and I’m going to actually skip washing my hair this week in favor of getting a little extra life out of my loose two strand twists, I decided to pull together all of the articles I’ve written on detangling to date. Each of these articles makes up a complete resource of tips, photos, videos and step by step instructions on how to detangle your hair effectively but more importantly, safely.

Having fine natural hair, one of the most critical things you need to do is detangle your hair safely. Otherwise, you will lose a lot of hair unnecessarily. Nobody wants that!

Without further ado, here are the articles you will find on Fine Natural Hair and Faith that were written on the topic of detangling. I included a summary next to each so that you’ll know what to expect when you click that link 🙂 Plus, each link will open a new window so you won’t have to keep hitting the back button. I know. I’m so considerate LOL!

    I need to pick up some glycerin and add it to my regimen. I’m sure it will do wonders for my moisture loving hair.

    1. I definitely think so. At least for detangling. I can never figure it out for styling. Nobody has time to be checking dew points lol thanks for stopping by

    1. thanks girl! I’ve only actually done the glycerin detangling twice. That’s not to say I won’t do it again. I’m just so used to using an oil and conditioner. I have easily detangled hair as long as I keep it moisturized and stretched during the week
