Not detangling because I was wearing my hair natural. Even if I am wearing an afro...to detangle in the beginning is to prevent tangles and loose way less hair when I get ready for the next wash.
My biggest mistake was thinking I knew how to care for my hair. I'd been a faithful in my stylist chair every two weeks for an "edge up". When I decided to go natural, I thought it would be simple and did not do any research.
I used cantu shea butter shampoo and leave in religiously BAD idea I got so much shedding but the absolute worse was sleeping with a wig on and washing my hair with dish washing liquid cause I ran out. Ever since then I've had badly thinning hair dont know which made it worse but my hair HATES WIGS
Similarly, my biggest mistake was getting a relaxer in the first place.My biggest mistake was not going natural sooner!
Back in 2005 - letting my mom press my newly big chopped 3-4 inches of natural hair with a stove top pressing comb and thick grease.
