jean1272

im after a good detangling spray for my daughters hair ,hair brushing is a nightmare she is only 18 months but she cries when i get the brush out,:eek:
i have got the l'oreal one at the moment,but its not that great ,was wondering if the salon versions(more expensive) are any better, cheers

On my daughters hair (shes 6) i use hot oil once a week and its fab! She has very long hair that knots if you even look at it!

It about £5 for three tubes which you can buy in asda or such like (or try your local poundland!)

You place it in warm water then apply to the hair, it doesnt burn (although its called hot oil) and after the hair is so soft and lovely!

Sophies hair tends to stay knot free for a week. Ive also taken to washing her hair once or twice a week as well and that has really helped and her hair seems to be in much better condition.

Lucky you though having a daughter of 18months with a full head of hair! My daughter looked like a boy until she was 3! lol

i tend to use loads of conditioner on my dd's hair (shes neary 4) and comb it through before rinsing it out. i've noticed this does help a lot and i too found the detangling sprays a load of tosh!

dd still runs off when i get the hairbrush out though lol so probably not much help

I think you are right about the sprays, they don't do much. But for my daughter who has very curly hair, it's more psychological. If I get the spray out she thinks it won't hurt as much!

You don't need to wash conditioner out, you can leave it in which helps to protect the hair and makes it easier to handle for a few days.

try Aussie 3 minute Miracle conditioner - there's often a sample if you look on the freebies board - best thing I ever found for my hair and you'd only need a tiny bit for your daughter about once a week - does much the same as hot oil but is less of a faff imo.

do you know what i never thought about condtioning her hair because hair washing is just as bad as hair brushing, we do it as quick as possible and we all breath a sigh of relief when its over.i have used that aussie one in the past,we will give it a go ,cheers

I use a Charles Worthington leave in conditioner it's really good and you only need a tiny amount. (Charles Worthington results moisture seal hair healer leave in conditioner!) You can get it in Boots & Tescos.

Also try the Detangling Comb from Avon - I have used mine on a few fols nightmare hair and it is a god send. Only a couple of quid each unless they are on offer (think I got my last one for a pound).
