first question?...do you supply your own hair or does your braider get it for you? Next: before washing: use a boar bristle brush to make sure there are no tangles before wetting it down , don't just wet your hair and pile it on top of your head to wash it, more like using a neutralizing shampoo after a perm. Use a good leave on conditioner to comb through . Start at the bottom near the neck and slowly work up the head. I've dealt with a few of those Don King issues in the salon. Full head weaves that turned into 1 solid dreadlock. If this doesn't help you, I would opt for better hair.

Hi, I used baby oil. I saturated my head with baby oil and just kept combing. Start combing with a wide tooth comb at the bottom and work your way up. little at a time. Be Patient and go easy they will loosen up. I also waited about 5 minutes before I started combing.Let the oil saturate first. Or comb your hair with water running over it. They say not to do that but it works and sometimes you have no choice.
