I am always shocked by how much hair I pull out when I wash my hairThis detangler works wonders and I am only pulling out 1-2 strands of hair versus a small creature! Highly recommend for curly or thick hair

    The Shed-Stopper: A True Wash Day Game-Changer!!

    As a long-time fan of Color Wow, I had high expectations for their Snag-Free Pre-Shampoo Detangler, and it absolutely surpassed them. My biggest problem during wash days has always been excessive hair loss, which I've realized is often caused by the struggle of detangling my knotty curly hair once it's wet and most fragile. This detangler is applied before shampooing, and it is a revelation. The slip it creates is incredible—it instantly melts away tangles and makes the entire detangling process completely stress-free. If you struggle with tangles, breakage, or hair loss during shampooing, this is an absolute must-have. It has transformed my wash day from a chore to a treat, and I highly recommend it!

    I don't have curly hair...

    However I have long thin hair that I usually just end up twirling up and clipping, then I mess with that bun and continue to do multiple times per day. It ends up a rats nest by the time I do my weekly full hair cleaning routine. The Pre-Shampoo Detangler has made a huge difference, and I highly recommend this product.

    Disappointing

    This didn't work for my hair texture, I didn't see any difference and my hair felt more dry after using it.
