People who really know me are aware that I tend to "forget" to brush my hair. the habit is just unnatural for me, and I like how undone and messy my locks look. I think the texture adds character to my otherwise limp hair.

Never skip conditioner.
To get soft, smooth hair, it's important that it gets nourishment and hydration from conditioner or hair masks. When the locks are properly moisture, they look healthier and shinier.

Finger-comb the strands.
Okay, here's the bare minimum you'd have to prevent tangles: Finger-comb your hair. You can do this while in the shower or while it's damp. While you're at it, massage a leave-in conditioner to boost the moisture on the ends.

Style while the hair is damp—but with caution.
I really like the hair bends that my non-suklay routine creates. But when I need to appear more polished—like I tried—I tie my hair into a bun or in Dutch braids. I just make sure that I use bands that do not have any steel or material that would tug my strands and break them.
