Hi, can you please message me your info! I am willing to pay as much as necessary. My sister is struggling with extreme depression and severe mental health issues and as a result her hair is severely matted and she has a lot of shame. Please please reach out to me if you’re still doing appointments.

I am responding to your post about matted hair. I am in Clearwater Florida and desperate for help with my extremely matted hair. First Caused by driving as a job for 12 hours a day and my car getting matted from the headrest and the metal part on the head rest matted my hair, then the pandemic hit and I could not get into a salon. Depression set in and now over a year later,  and I need help desperately!😥 If you know anyone who can help me, please let me know. I wish I was near your location. Please help! Thank you for your time! 

Sincerely, 

Amy

That makes me want to book an appointment with you , I’m having the same issue and I can’t figure out the back section , I did two small sections in the front and have been completely staying at home hiding. I don’t know what to do 😞

Don't even know where to start...

Me, too.  This is the third, and by far the worst, time it has happened.  No idea what to do, literally every hair on my head is woven into this giant mat.  Mine is also due to severe depression, and a scalp-picking anxiety tic.  I got a bunch of salt in my hair, and then just left it up in the bun it was in for a few (maybe 3 or 4?) days.  When I went to take it down, this had happened because the salt had caused it to get so dry and textured that it just all wrapped around itself and then tightened and coiled up.  Tried several different things, haven't found a solution yet.  Don't want to cut it, I've been growing it for three years and it's to my waist, I'm a boho girl and short hair doesn't fit my style or my face shape.  I'm scared I'll have to shave it, because a lot of it is finely knotted all the way to the scalp.  So desperate for a solution!!! I may try the WD-40 thing.  Anyone else tried it?

Lots, and lots of shine spray! It makes the hair extremely slick, use a wide tooth comb to detangle hair. Start at the ends, and work your way up.

I know this was posted a few yrs ago but this is for the one's who are seeking help now and for the future.

I have extremely long hair and had many, many!

times that I knots but not as severe as the one that I had recently...I had gotten sick and took a shower...I had no energy to deal with my hair and had used some shampoo with no conditioner...Oh my that was a horrible mistake....I woke up and had a giant knot in my hair...So I kept on letting it go since I had no energy to try and take it out....BIG MISTAKE!

(It became knotted and matted)

Here's what I did....

Do not wet your hair...Hair shrinks when wet and that makes the knots tighter....I stumbled on using WD-40. ...Yes it WORKS! 

Also you need to be patient....

Saturate the  knotted hair and let it soak in for at least 10 minutes or more, get your fingers or comb or both (I used a small knitting needle) and gently pull out the knots...Later when it's all out wash your hair with clarifying shampoo.

Hope this helps for you. ❤

does WD40 really work, cause I can try it tomorrow.

I do realize that I need to take my time and not rush it. I recently had surgery on both wrists so washing my hair was pushed to not important at the time so it's been 5 months since I actually washed and conditioned my hair , in the morning I just comb or brush the sides and top and put the back in a bun with a big rubber band everyday that's how I fix my hair but I noticed my scalp has lumps all over and when a try to pull the scalp off it gets stuck with hair going thru it. I even bought a detailing brush to help me out but just getting enough energy to do it is hard cause my hands my wrists literally are not totally healed yet.

Thank you helping me with my Delimma at this time . 

I will let you know how it goes
