Coconut Oil For Hair Detangling!

My sister and I have really enjoyed the benefits of using coconut oil on our hair.

However, it wasn’t until a couple days ago that I discovered it’s wonderful to assist in detangling, that and suave hair products.

Some of the other uses for coconut oil is that it’s a great heat protector, sealer, and it can even be used on skin!

Pictured above is thirty minutes worth of dry detangling

Below are some of the knots I had to remove:

All the tools and products I used:

• Denman Brush
• Wide tooth comb
• A Suave Conditioner with a good "slip"
• Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil
• Hair clips to section hair

I began by sectioning her hair into six different sections. Starting in the back, I began finger detangling, pulling out any shed hair that I came across. After that, I ran some coconut oil through her hair, which really helps straighten curly hair.



STEP TWO:

Now her hair is fairly straight, but still a little tangled. Her hair is naked besides the oil. Now I'll add a little Suave Naturals conditioner (it doesn't matter which one you use) and use a wide tooth comb. Pictured left are the results so far.



STEP THREE:

Lastly, I will use a Denman brush and get the last tangles and shed hair out. The whole process took about half an hour and saved us time of re-wetting her hair and washing it when her hair was still clean but super tangled.




For curiosity sake, here's all the hair I removed using the Denman, my fingers, and a wide tooth comb.

It has been about three days since I last washed her hair, so anything more or less than this would something to be concerned about.
