Invest in a Good Comb

For those of us with curly hair, we often find that the regular drug store products are just not made for our hair. Sad, but true. With so many varieties of hair, it’s a surprise that we are often forced to use tools that are suited for one type.

Anyhoodles, I went shopping for a comb and found a good one on Honey Fig. $16 seems a little pricey for a wide-tooth comb, but it’s worth it. It’s strong and has a uniformed body, which means no snagging or tearing your hair. If you wear your hair out, would like to have some curl definition, and keep your hair from breaking, I suggest you comb it while in the shower and have loads of conditioner or moisturizer in it. That ensures that your hair is not fighting to get around the teeth of the comb.

If you plan on twisting or braiding it, you can still use this comb to achieve your style – just start from the ends and work your way up the section. We’ve been taught to use a fine-tooth comb to achieve our braided and twisted styles, but my experience has been that using a slightly wider tooth comb will still detangle but leave your hair on your head.
