My kid has slightly wavy shoulder length hair and it gets insane knots. We use the wet brush. Is there a better option? |
It's the best we've found. You need to use conditioner, and then probably some kind of leave-in conditioner or detangling spray. Always brush when wet, and put hair in ponytail or braids as much as possible (and always when sleeping). |
What’s a good leave in conditioner? |
We've had good experiences with Cantu and Garnier Fructis. Suave makes a pretty good detangling spray. |
Wet Brush after spraying Suave Kids Detangler (we use the marigold "100% natural") |
You need a good detangling spray + wet brush. For nights, put it way way up on the top of her bed in a satiny scrunchy - REALLY helps keep hair smoother over night. |
Denman brushes are the best. You can get them on Amazon.

We use a round shampoo brush on my daughter’s curly hair. It is much better for us than a wet brush or anything else we have tried. She never complains about it. They sell them on Amazon. |
Use a wide tooth comb. |
Despite copious amounts of conditioner, these just seem to pull the top of my DD's hair and don't get out any tangles. What's the secret? |

that one, or something like it, its the only thing my kids have gotten on board with and i've tried it myself its pretty crazy. Don't just get any curved one though it needs those boar bristles. |
NP. Are you starting from the ends of her hair? |
It just seems to stay on the surface of the hair and doesn’t get between the strands. Is yours like a rubbery material that is bendable? |
tangle teezer. so worth it. |
you need to get a conditioner with a lot of slip.
Try briogeo conditioner (expensive) or shea moisture conditioner. Use the tangle teezer and start from the ends. Section her hair in 4. Then detangle each section. |
