'Mama it hurting me", "Ouch!", "No, no more doing hair!"...do those lines sound familiar to you? Now, if your little one has curly hair, then purchasing a detangling hair brush has probably been on your mind.
Trying to re-create those cute hairstyles from tutorials on Youtube or TikTok can be so amazing, but at the same time daunting. Especially when brushing your little one's curly hair can lead to tears, screaming and experiencing free karate lessons from your child.
If you've tried spraying water on little bubba's hair to help soften it, or used a tangle-free shampoo or moisture rich styling smoothie, leave in conditioners, the shea butter detangling moisturiser, or even the olive oil hair pudding, it could be that the type of brush you're using is not working for you. Options such as afro combs, bamboo hair picks, curled shower combs and wide-tooth combs are designed for thick curls or afro hair to help reduce pulling and breakage. If your child's hair is prone to knots and tangles, a detangling hair brush may be the hair product you're looking for.
So, make that tug-of-war hair session with your kids a thing of the past. From tangle teezer, detangler glides and detangling nylon, we have found and reviewed the best products to help you on those tough hair days.
