0 How To Wash Natural Hair To Prevent Tangles

I was browsing CurlyNikki.com and found this article by Shelli of Hairscapades talking about her hair routine and how she has incorporated twists.

"I’ve never had a problem with my hair re-tangling after a detangling session. So, when I initially read about the technique of twisting for washing, conditioning and deep conditioning, I didn’t think it was necessary or relevant for my curl pattern/texture. However, several months ago, I started to twist my hair into four sections after applying a DC. Then, when I started pre-pooing and dry finger detangling, I started to twist my hair as I applied my pre-poo of choice (coconut or Vatika oil at the time). Next, I started to twist my hair after I co-washed and detangled each section. Now, I use twists throughout my wash day routines. The reason I’ve done so is because I’ve found that the twists seem to prep my hair to retain TnC and twist out sets. I have about 4 different textures on my head (who doesn’t, right?) and this process of setting the twists seems to create a “memory” for my hair to follow that wave pattern. However, I believe my TnC and twist-out sets have greatly improved in consistency of pattern, definition and hold from using twists throughout my wash session."


Do you wash in twists? (Question asked on CurlyNikki)


Yes, I do. I detangle and twist each section after the tangles are all out. I shampoo & condition with the twists and then moisturize and re-twist each section to style my hair or airdry.
