I'm not a hair dresser but my best friend's mom is, so I get a lot of great advise from her.

First off, take out wet tangles using a comb. Using a brush is faster but can damage hair, not a lot though.

When conditioning hair, comb it through. It helps take out tangles and keeps hair smooth.

If your my client i would analyze the texture of you hair . Then direct you to a better conditioner to use in the mean time not that store bought brand mass produced products.Try placing the conditioner first on to the hair dry than rinse and repeat. I would tell you that it shouldn't matter but in this case i would comb your hair with a wide tooth comb.Avoid any products containing alcohol .Use more of a styling cream gel.

Untangling wet hair, a question for hairdressers?

You should use a conditioner and most importantly you should try to comb your hair from the bottom of the nape of your neck and work up slowly.

Most people will put a brush or a comb to the side or crown of the head and try to comb straight down, this only causes more tangles and hair damage as the hair stretches when wet and will break.

Give it a go you will be surprised how better it is.

Untangling wet hair, a question for hairdressers?

Firstly, you should never use a brush on wet hair as when wet, your hair is more 'elastic' and brushing will stretch your hair and cause breakage, splits and stress.

A wide-toothed comb (also known as a basin comb) is what you should use everytime you have wet hair. The tines (teeth) of the comb are far enough apart not to put any tension on the hair shaft and also, depending on what you may be continuing on with, conditioner is not always a good idea as it closes the hair shaft, so if you were to apply a colour or you were going for a perm it would not take as your hair shaft needs to be open. Hope this helps........*wink*
