Yes. Wet hair has less elasticity than dry hair, so is more likely to break. Here's what you can do to limit the damage.
- Use conditioner when you wash your hair. Not only will it help build your hair's strength, but it'll also help detangle it long before you step out of the shower.
- If you still need to detangle your hair before drying, use a wide tooth comb or a brush designed to be gentle on wet hair, like the Pro Select Wet Brush, £6.95.
- When you starting combing, begin at the bottom of your hair and detangle the ends, before moving upwards.
- Always take it slowly, using short and gentle movements, holding each section of hair with your other hand, just above the part you're tackling.
