DD (19) has beautiful hair; mixed race - black Jamaican/white British
We have tended to do a version of curly girl with few silicones, occasional shampoos & no brushing or combing just running her fingers through her hair with conditioner
What we think happens is: she dances, she sweats, the conditioner 'melts' she doesn't immediately finger comb her hair & goes to the next class so it becomes matted & during periods of high pressure/work/exams, it doesn't get properly done & have to detangle it and then we start again. Not helped by being styled in a ballet bun, high pony or loose depending of the style of dance
We have tried over 100 different types of product over the years, some work & then get discontinued, others we throw away after using once, we have had to cut product out of her hair before now as it was nigh on impossible to remove
Any suggestions on a new routine/product/hairdresser to visit for advise?
Both of us are ready to cut it off but it is such a part of her neither of us want to

Over 6 hours detangling hair, how do we prevent it getting that bad & is there an easier way to detangle?
