Four hours to detangle your hair???

[keepithealthy]

She prolly uses a needle to untangle single strand knots. So I can see it taking 4 hours.

You gotta do what works for you...

people do that....I am sooo not that dedicated

My hair is just about arm pit length when straightened. If my hair is in twists it only takes me about 20 to 30 minutes to detangle. If I do wash and go's it tends to get more tangled and take me about an hour. 4 hours

If it took my four hours I would have to try something different.

okay I just realized she dry detangles. I never detangle my head dry that would take 4EVER!

Actually, she did once mention using a needle to get out single strands knots. I recall a comment asking her to do a video on it but I never saw the video (if she did one).

to each their own I guess

Guess now ladies will be asking for help to lengthen their detangling sessions so they too can have long KT hairs

I don't see why she detangles dry though. Am I missing something? I detangle my hair wet with loads of conditioner and detangling is pretty much a breeze for me. (shrug). Then again, my hair is short though....

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but my hair matts up

I can't get down with the needles dude. I feel like I would be plucking cuticles off trying to untangle a knot creating splits and holes and all kinds of ish. I never got how that could be beneficial.....

kt leave-in makes detangling dry hair pretty fast and painless with fingers

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

my eyesite is not good enough for needles and stuff. i'd go blind doing all that. ♥

Also,　doesn't she avoid silicones? So, dry detangling and no silicones. I can see it. It use to take me hours before I started leaving silicone conditioners with awesome slip as leave- ins. But, I am sure that there are people out that would need that long even with those methods. *kany shrug*

I don't understand what you mean...Are using a silicone conditioner to detangle; or is this just your general leave-in conditioner??

mailing KT a tangle teezer stat

she might mail it right back to you.

*Slides slowly to the floor clutching my ribs as i laugh*

dry detangling doesn't make much sense to me. i have coarse 4a/4b (mostly 4b) hair and i prepoo for an hour under the dryer, detangle in the shower AND twist within 4 hours TOTAL. And that's only if I get distracted by one of the Nigerian movies I'm likely watching.

That's way too long to me. I usually detangle in the shower with conditioner in my hair so it might take me 30-45 minutes. I tend to wear my hair in stretched out states so I almost never deal with shrunken hair unless its detangling after a deep condition.

When I saw that video and heard her mention that she detangles her hair dry I cringed. I can just hear the hairs on my head snapping off. I love her hair but four hours is a bit much for me. Only takes me 30 minutes.

 

[Sweet_Ambrosia]

If it took me 4 hours to detangle my hair I would need a glass of wine and a nap afterwards. It takes me 10-15 mins max to detangle my hair, I use my fingers while my hair is soaking wet with lots of conditioner+oil and I take my time from start to finish.

Her hair must be super tangled/knotted up to begin with or she’s just extremelyyyy particular about her hair care methods if it takes her 4 hours to detangle, I think the latter may be true for her, after skimming through the other KT thread 2 ½ hours to apply one product…alrighty then, but if it works for her great.

That's a real long time. I didn't watch the vid but if she is doing this on hair that has been air dryed w/o prior detangling I can see how that would happen. When your hair air drys it basically is molded in the state you left it in making it very difficult to detangle w/o some type of detangler added. I don't detangle wet hair in the shower either.It leads to more breakage for me, especially as my hair passed BSL. This is why I wash in braids. I detangle while slightly damp and sometimes I will comb through my hair again while styling. Now sometimes I do what I call a super detangling session where I go through my hair w/a small tooth comb after the larger one and that can take an hour. But on a regular basis I spend about 30 minutes detangling on wash days. I also finger comb before hand so that really helps (that is not included in the 30 minutes) I just couldn't imagine spending that long but if it working for that person I guess it's fine, I would only wash once a month if it took me that long to detangle. I can do a nice set of twists w/n 4 hours while detagling as I go along.

Geezus! If I had to spend 4 hours doing anything to my hair I would just cut it down to 2 inches and call it a day. That is a big chunk of your life just to detangle some hair.

Now THATS dedication. I guess Im just not quite THAT vested in my hair.

Girlll...

On wet hair it takes me maybe 15-20 minutes to detangle. 30-60 minutes on dry old braid out/ twist out hair .

^^^Oh yes, just subbed to NaturalHairGrowth101! Beautiful hair.

I've gotten two trims this year, each time I think half an inch taken off both times.

So one inch for the year. And I'm not taking 4 hours to detangle. Hell when I was transitioning it didn't take that long. I'd be praying for Jesus to take the wheel if it took me that long
