Let's face it we all have this debate before
Type 4 hair is the most fragile of all hair types because every curling point along the strand is a potential point of breakage and the curlier the hair the more potential points of breakage. In addition , us Naturals have to factor in dryness that results from a lack of sebum traveling down our highly textured strands and yes this sucks but i ask few naturals (40+ ) and most of them preferred finger combing most said they saw improvement in density, length and health to their hair due to finger detangling.
If you have never tried finger detangling and want to give it a shot here is what I would suggest; after finger detangling a small section of hair run a wide tooth comb through that section to test your work. If it goes through, then you’ve done the job right. If not, you have more work to do.
Keep in mind that longer hair equals more work and time — and if you don’t want to put in that time, shorter hair might be the best option. if you are seeing a significant amount of breakage each time you detangle finger combing is something to at least try for the health of your hair. It may be time consuming but it sure beats seeing all your growth on your bathroom counter top.
Any tips on how you finger comb your hair let me know
