Hey Hair Bestie!
Let’s talk about something every natural girl or mama has faced: detangling. You’ve probably had one of those sessions that turned into a full-on tug-of-war. Been there, done that—and we’re not doing it anymore. Detangling doesn’t have to be stressful, painful, or damaging. With the right approach and products, you can glide through knots and tangles with confidence (and no tears—yes, even for the little ones!).
Here’s how I teach my clients, mamas, and stylists to detangle natural hair without breakage. Whether you’re caring for your own crown or your child’s, this one’s for you.
First Things First: Why Detangling Matters
Detangling isn’t just about making hair easier to style. It helps:
● Prevent breakage and split ends
● Retain length
● Distribute products more evenly
● Reduce shedding and tangling during the week
But the key? Doing it gently.
Here's a Step-by-Step Detangling Routine (The NyRose Way)
1. Start with Moisture
Dry hair and detangling do NOT go together. Ever.
Reach for your Leave-In Conditioner Hydration Spray and generously mist the hair. Our
spray is formulated with natural humectants that soften strands, making them easier to work through. You’ll notice a difference instantly—those tangles just melt.
✨ Pro tip: Divide hair into 4–6 sections to make detangling more manageable. Always work in sections!
2. Use Your Fingers First
Your fingers are your first detangling tool. Gently separate major tangles before bringing in a comb or brush. This method helps you feel knots without snapping hair.
3. Follow with a Wide-Tooth Comb or Detangling Brush
Once you’ve softened the hair with the spray and finger-detangled, it’s time to go in with a tool. Use a wide-tooth comb or a gentle detangling brush. Always start from the ends and work your way up to the roots. If you feel resistance—stop. Add more spray and take your time.
4. Seal in the Moisture
After detangling, lock in that moisture with Raw Shea Butter or our Nourishing Hair Growth Oil. Shea Butter is perfect for thick, coily textures that need long-lasting moisture. Our Growth Oil nourishes the scalp while protecting the ends from drying out. Pick what your hair needs that day.

In Case You’re Wondering…
Q: How often should I detangle my hair?
A: It depends on your hair type and style. If your hair is loose or in a puff, detangle every wash day or once a week. For protective styles, detangle thoroughly before and after the style.
