your hair snapshot

your gaps between washes may be longer than your hair likes.

what's likely going on

tangles, matting, or breakage at takedown, or when you finally wash, can point to long gaps. buildup makes detangling harder, which can mean more pulling.

how to find out

note how many days pass between washes, and how much tangling or shedding you see when you take a style down.
