No matter how hard I tried to fix it, the problem seemed to only get worse.
Do you have a daughter with hair like this?
Have you worked in conditioner, washed it out, only to have the tangles back by the end of the day?
Have you ever spent $30 on a hair brush designed to fix your problem, only to find it didn’t?
Have you had the knot develop so badly that even your hairdresser couldn’t detangle it, and had to resort to cutting it out?
Have you ever felt the mixed emotion of embarrassment and relief to find that the solution was right under your nose?
When my hairdresser suggested I rub olive oil into her hair, I grabbed our hair butter instead. I rubbed (too much) hair butter in her hair and the within 10 minutes her hair was completely detangled. Not only that, but two hours later, it remained detangled.
I have since found that I only need a small amount of hair butter to rub through my hands and finger into her hair (too much makes the hair look greasy). A few minutes of combing and the knot detangles… the comb cuts through her hair like… butter 🙂
It’s such a relief to have a happy, tangle-free daughter.
