This is me! My hair sheds more when it's wet. I don't understand this because it doesn't matter if I detangled and braided my hair before washing. I still get a large amount of shedding while wet. After my wash & condition, after undoing my braids, once I put in my leave in and comb through, my hair will continue to shed. For this reason I do my comb through first (I've already squeezed the excess water out) and then apply my leave in & oil. To me my hair is thinner, my braids are skinny, not full like they used to be.
