Ladies,
Throughout the week, I lose minimal hair to breakage, a few strands max, if that, and that's because I'm being careless or rushing. I finger comb daily.
I feel that I lose a good bit of hair during the detangling step...ETA this refers to detangling on wash day when the hair is wet...I typically experience zero breakage when detangling on dry hair. I know the increased hair loss on wash day can be attributed to a low manipulation regi (combing on wash day only to detangle) but I'm unable to tell if it's shedding or breakage because the hair is wet and I don't stop to inspect every hair. I do a random check and normally it's a shed hair which is okay.
I know that losing hair - be it shed or breakage - is just a part of doing hair. I get that and totally embrace that but for those that are concerned with the amount of hair lost, how do you ensure it's shedding and not breakage?
I've watched yt vids and read threads that indicated some lose just a few strands while detangling. For those that fall into this category, what technique do you use or what's the secret to not losing hair while detangling because I've always lost a good bit of hair even when my regi included daily combing. ETA: I ensure my hair is very saturated and I use a wide tooth comb and a detangling product such as Mane & Tail Detangler.
Thanks!
