Damn my Laziness!!!!

[Shatani]

OY!!! my hair is in KNOTS!!!!

i had it in small twists for two weeks and took them out and wore a twist out puff for two days...and i just slept on it (work and school have me wiped and i just pass out with the books and papers in the bed with me!) and rinsed it in the morning and i know i been bad!!

right now, its all dry and tangled and i know the detangling is gonna be a b**ch! im almost tempted to go out to the store (its about half an hour away!) and buy a k-cutter for it....this is not pretty folks

i wonder, do any of you have a good pretreatment that you do when your hair gets like this....i feel like i should do something to it BEFORE i shampoo and deep condition....any suggestions??

Shatani,

I think we are going to be in the same boat, once I muster up enough courage to get into the bathroom.

I have had this braid cum twists on for almost a month, daily rinsing and conditioning until lack of time kept me from attending to them. My hair is so dry to the touch that I know I'm definitely asking for a big time detangling war.

Oh, I think you should use a braid spray on sections. I'm going to try that. That is, saturate each braid, take it down, comb it and rebraid before washing.

Hopefully, it will help

hmmmm....i dont have any braid spray (gasp!) but i do have some of that ease out spray, that some folks use when taking out their extensions...think that'll work??

try massaging some conditioner mixed with olive oil and tie a plastic cap on hair for about an hour. Afterwards you should be able to detangle with no problems. I guarantee this works.

alright, im on it....i have a conditioner that has EVOO in it already....i think i'll warm it up a bit and then go to town! thanks!

Funny, I came on here to find a good pre-poo treatment for my mess of hair. Thanks for the tip!

Hey Shatani,

How did it go? I just finished with mine and the braid spray worked like a charm. Good luck

went swimmingly....i had it in my hair for about 45 minutes with a plastic bag around it and a winter hat on....but it was itching like a ****!!! so i started to detangle....and i got it all detangled and shampoo'd so its nice and clean!

i was gonna do a deep condition today, but i didnt feel like it...my hair was already soft and fluffy, no need for that today so i coated it with kids organic detangler and coconut oil and put it in two banded pigtails to air dry....hopefully it will be dry by morning....im gonna just rock a low puff for work....
