I have really long hair and I wore it in a bun for a long time and then a pony tail and now I can't get a brush through it at all. I'm pregnant, so it's difficult to try to deal with hair. I really don't want to cut it off, but I may have to if I can't get it untangled.

Infusium 23 leave in conditioner. It slicks it right up and dries without looking oily, plus it is good for your hair.
HTH and congrats on the baby.

I have long thick hair and when pregnant, hormones cause hair to grow faster. I used a leave in conditioner and get a detangler like Johnson & Johnson and spray on damp hair and wide tooth comb from the bottom up. Blow dry the hair about half way through, not all the way or it will may dry and frizz. I usually leave my hair in a braid now just to keep it from damage of getting caught in things and when I had my son, he was always getting his fingers tangled in it too. Experiment, you'll find it won't be that bad to maintane. Good luck and congrats. :)

STEP 1: Apply hair conditioner or hand lotion to the fingers of one hand.
STEP 2: Hold the tangle in the hand that does not have lotion on it. You will use the other hand to work out the snarl gently.
STEP 3: Comb your fingers through the snarl. Begin at the bottom of the snarl and work toward the scalp.
STEP 4: For really bad snarls, wet the hair and apply conditioner. Leave the conditioner in the hair while you finger-brush it. S
TEP 5: Gently comb out the hair with a wide-toothed

Wet the hair and using and entire bottle (if needed) of conditioner finger comb through your long locks.
You should always allow the hair to flow naturally down the back; do not ever wad the hair on top of the head.
Shampoo only the crown (scalp) and finger comb the shampoo south to the ends.
Condition only the ends and finger comb north to the crown.
Only comb wet hair, only brush dry hair.

Same thing happened to a female friend of mine. She couldn't use a brush because it would have certainly damaged her hair - yes, that's how bad her state was. So a friend of hers spent a lot of time and untangled her hair with her hands. I guess that's the best method, just call someone with a lot of patience. And you'd better wash or wet your hair before you start, this way it will reduce the chances of hurting too much.

when you are in the shower you put conditioner in your hair then comb slowly from the bottom to the top and it should be easy. After you have taken it out of an up do you should spray leave-in conditioner or detangler and brush from bottom to the top.

If a good conditioner won't work, try using hair-restoration products with a seal of approval from dermatologists. You may also visit this site http://www.hair-restoration.php for more tips and product details.

I always comb my hair while I'm still the shower with the conditioner still in. Then I just make sure I don't tangle it!

Have you tried any detangling products? There are lots out there, but what I have used before is Infusium 23. It has worked pretty well. Try it! It should help.
