Detangle with a wide tooth comb: While our moms may have used a bristle brush to rake through our curls as kids, now is the time to forget you ever owned one. To work through your curls without disrupting their natural pattern or creating frizz, use your fingers or a wide tooth comb. This is best done on wet or damp curls.

Work from tips to roots: When trying to detangle your hair or apply product, work from your tips up through to your roots. This technique allows you to locate and identify knots before you rip through them, further damaging your curls.

Deep condition while you shower: Before showering, section your curls and apply your deep conditioner. Wrap your head in a plastic cap or towel, and do everything you need to in the shower before rinsing. The heat from the shower will allow the product to penetrate your curls more deeply.
