How to Grow Curly Hair Fast, According to Experts

Detangle Properly

There’s no getting around the need to detangle curly hair, but how, when, and what you use matters greatly. Peace says water, conditioner, and a detangling brush are the power trio for removing tangles and facilitating growth, and Taylor agrees. “These tools are designed to glide through the hair with minimal breakage and pulling,” she says.

You want your hair to be wet and saturated in conditioner “to provide slip and make it easier to work through knots,” says Taylor. Then, “start detangling from the ends of your hair and gradually work your way up to the roots to prevent breakage and reduce stress.”
