When the hair in your hair system gets tangled, it can mean a lot more than just a few extra minutes of combing in the morning. By detangling your hair system the wrong may, you may inadvertently be diminishing the condition and life span of your investment.

Simple, safe and effective tips that every person wearing a hair replacement system can use to get minor hair tangles out.

Before getting into the shower, wet your head and brush all the hairs toward the same direction. This adds moisture to the hair strands and will ease friction while washing.

If your hair is tangled before you get in the shower it helps to dilute your shampoo with just a little bit of water before applying. This will also make it easier to rub the shampoo in to the hair.

Using a wide-tooth comb or a specially designed Vent Brush in the shower while you shampoo will help prevent hair strands from intertwining and getting caught on each other. If your hair system is severely tangled, we have step-by-step instructions for the process most commonly used by professionals.

WARNING: This process is much more involved than the tips provided above and if not followed exactly, could result in permanent damage to your hair system. Read more!

Professional Detangling Process for Human Hair Replacement Systems

WARNING:
The following process is identical to the one commonly used by professionals in the hair replacement industry for detangling most human hair systems. However, it is reccomended you consult your hair system manufacturer before proceeding.

Although it is a relatively simple process, if executed improperly, may result in permanent damage to your hair system.

You Will Need:

• Large sink with access to hot water.
• At least 2 gallons of hot tap water.
• 2 oz. of Clorox™ bleach (must be Clorox™ brand).
• 2 oz. of regular household ammonia.
• Wide tooth comb or brush (Vent Brush).

Instructions:

Step 1: Setup for Clorox™ Scrub
Draw one gallon of hot tap water into the sink. Next, pour the 2 oz. of Clorox™ bleach into the sink with the hot tap water.

Finally, place the tangled hair system into the water carefully and begin the next step promptly.

CAUTION: DO NOT allow the hair system to be in contact with the Clorox™ & hot water mixture for more than 2 mintures!

Step 2: Clorox™ Tangle Scrub
Using the wide tooth comb or vent brush, gently brush through the hair from back to front. Concentrate on the most tangled and knotted area of the hair system.

The tangles should come out while brushing and the hair will become silky. Be careful NOT to brush more than 2 minutes while the hair system is in the Clorox™ mixture.

Step 3: Rinse Hair System
Drain the Clorox™ and hot water from the sink. Then begin to thoroughly rinse warm water through the hair system. While rinsing, keep the base of the system facing up. This will prevent the hair from inverting and tangling again.

Step 4: Ammonia Scrub
Draw another gallon of hot tap water into the sink. Pour the 2 oz. of ammonia into the sink with the hot tap water. Place system in sink.

Start brushing the hair system again, same as before. Use a wide tooth or vent brush and gently comb from back to front for 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 5: Final Rinse
Drain the ammonia and hot water from the sink. Then begin to thoroughly rinse warm water through the hair system again. Remember, while rinsing keep the base of the system facing up.

After the final rinse, your hair replacement system should be silky smooth and tangle free. If you continue to have problems with tangling, please contact us for additional solutions.
