Ahead, we’ll clue you in to who desperately needs a detangler, plus expert-approved recipes to make a DIY spray in less than two minutes. Those with curls know well: Comb through the snarls without some sort of detangler (or—gasp—when the ringlets are bone dry), and you’re on the fast track to shedding, scalp irritation, and split ends. That said, conditioner works, too, if you like to detangle your strands in the shower (again, just some sort of slip is necessary)—just work through the knots after loading up on your conditioner of choice. If you’re partial to detangling post-shower, though, that’s where you might need to spritz on a detangling product.
