TANGLE TEEZER!

I recently came across a product called the "tangle teezer" while watching a YouTube video, so of course I had to Google it!!  I found great reviews from several websites and immediately I was sold.  I found my local Sally's store and picked one up for $9.99 + tax.

This is what it looks like:

 

You use this as you would any other comb/brush in the de-tangling process.  I'll give you a step by step.

1.  Part your hair in to several sections.  Its easier to de-tangling when using small sections at a time.

2.  Spray your hair with water or if you prefer some type of leave-in conditioner. You should NEVER try to de-tangle hair while dry.  It doesn't stretch as well and can cause breakage.

3.  Now this is a personal preference I suppose but I prefer to start detangling from the ends and work my way to the roots.  However, when reading the directions in the box the started from the roots.

4. Once you work your way up after only a few strokes you should be able to run the Tangle Teezer from root to end with not a problem.

The brush it self has a lot of small flexible teeth that help to immediately detangle and stretch the hair out.

I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this for all hair type and especially for use on kids hair.  It is fast and easy to you use.

So, having said all that WHAT ARE YOU WAITING ON? GET UP! GO TO SALLY'S & GET A TANGLE TEEZER TODAY!!!

Split Ends...

There are a million and one products out there saying they can reverse the dreaded problem of split ends. However, the only product that I have come across that cures the dreaded split ends is...>drum roll please<
a good pair of hair sheers.
There is no glue that binds the hair back together. To stop the unwinding/splitting of your hair you must CUT!!! Don't be afraid of the sheers. Sheers are your friend to nice, long, beautiful, and truly healthy hair. There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING cute about long hair that is filled with ends that can help fuel a fire.
It is important for you to find out how often you need to trim your ends to maintain healthy hair. For me, I need to trim my ends once a month. It helps my hair to grow and remain healthy.
I was watching a video by Ms. Heather Nicole on youtube about split ends and a technique she calls "Search & Destroy". This is finding split ends and just clipping the offending strands and not the entire section that we often do at times. I do this a lot, mostly out of boredom. It has helped me to learn where I have most of my trouble spots and helped me to change my routine for my hair.

So happy clipping!!!
