No matter your hair type, it is essential to detangle your natural hair on a regular basis and especially on your wash days!

When detangling kinky curly afro hair, using a wide tooth comb is one of the best hair tools to detangle your natural hair. The best time to detangle your hair is when conditioning it. You can also detangle before and after shampooing.

2. Detangle one section at a time

3. Start by combing the ends of the first section until the ends of the hair is detangled

4. Then start to comb the hair from the ends to the mid section until the mid section is detangled
