The Mistake: Trying to Brush Tangled Hair While It's Wet
The Mistake: Trying to Brush Tangled Hair While It's Wet In addition to torturing your hair with a towel after washing, one of the worst mistakes people make is brushing their hair right out of the shower. This is especially terrible if you have curly, kinky, wavy, or tangle-prone hair, warns Chabbi. "You should only use your fingers to detangle. I recommend using a styling lotion [or detangling product] and then letting your hair air dry or diffuse." If you must brush your hair while it's wet or damp then use something like Tangle Teezer's The Ultimate Detangler, $14. It features 325 patented "teeth" that are long and flexible, which minimizes the potential for breakage or cuticle damage.
