Brush Hair Before Washing to Avoid Tangles

This is such a simple thing, but it works so well to reduce tangles when you shampoo. Brush your hair just as you would if getting ready to go out. Then, lean over, and flip your hair over your face and brush really well all the way from the scalp to the ends of the hair.

It will do two things to make your hair better in every way. Number One - it removes all the loose hair which causes 90% of the tangles and snarls, broken hair and split ends. Number Two - it stimulates the flow of natural oil in the scalp and if you're brushing right, it'll take the oil all the way to the ends of every hair where it's already dry and perhaps in need of extra care. P>There really was something to that old habit of brushing your hair 100 strokes every night prior to going to bed too. You'll even sleep better.
