Tangle Teezer for Children
Why do children often get tangled hair? Children love to play all day and do all sorts of activities without even stopping to comb their hair. Kids are very active -- running around, twisting hair, sleeping with wet hair – usually without combing properly.
When the child's hair is allowed to hang freely during physical activities, it forms several knots, due to swinging around. Children get tangled and matted hair easily because of these daily activities. It can be quite difficult to keep a child's hair tangle-free and to manage their unruly hair.
What causes tangled hair in children? The hair texture of children is very much different from adult hair. Kids have finer hair that is softer and can easily result in knotted hair.
The most common cause for matted hair is static electricity created in the hair by friction or through rubbing the hair against other materials such as carpets, clothing, or caps/hats. If hair is rubbed repeatedly, then it gets tangled and knotted. Hair breakage can also follow.
To avoid tangled hair in children, it is a good idea to apply a mild conditioner after shampoo. This will keep the hair sleek and manageable. Children should not sleep with wet hair as this will surely result in severely matted hair in the morning. Pillows with synthetic fillings can also cause hair tangles due to high static electricity caused by rubbing the hair with the pillow while sleeping. Kids can also avoid getting hair tangles by not rubbing their hair on the carpet while playing around.
It is best to comb the child's hair several times a day to keep the hair in line. Also, hair tangles are commonly worst in the morning. Combing the hair is especially recommended before sleeping at night to minimise hair tangles upon waking up.
Parents may unknowingly produce knots and tangles by piling hair on their child's head when shampooing. Instead, a gentle massage should be done while shampooing and washing the hair. Combing tangled hair can be painful and frustrating to the child. Fixing matted hair can also be very time-consuming for the parent.
To work out tangles, consider using the right comb. A good detangling comb is Tangle Teezer. Unlike the usual combs and brushes where you have to fix tangles starting from the ends of the hair and working up towards the roots, Tangle Teezer can be used from roots to ends and even mid-length to ends.
