Getting knots out of hair?

I have two fairly bad knots in my hair, both near the top of my hair. Is there any tips any of you could give on how to get rid of them? I'd really like not to have to get my hair cut short since I've been growing my hair for nearly 3 years. Cheers!

First of all don't use a brush use a comb. A wide toothed comb would work best and start at the bottom of the hair with the hair wet and use conditioner to help loosen up the not. Go slow and it will work it's way out, you iwll need to be patient depending on the knot. I had a customer who came in and it took me 3 hours to get her knot out of her hair. But it was that or she had to shave her head. She was greatful.

You can buy "conditioner" in a bottle where you buy shampoo in your grocery store. I use Flex, it's a very old and good brand. I would not suggest anything like Clairol's conditioner for this problem. Try mayonaise and work your fingers from the ends then to the middle then toward the scalp. Take your time and first gently pull out the knots and then move your fingers thru the knot and try to get it to let go. You can use a large comb and work that from the edges toward the scalp loosening as you go. You can also use a pencil to try to make it give up the knot. But anything you do will take time. So do it when you're relaxed and after you've had dinner and have lots of time to work with it.

wash your hair then put conditioner in it. leave the conditioner in. brush hair with conditioner in it. start at the bottom of your hair, working your way to the top. don't yank on your hair. a comb, turned sideways may help, also. it will work out small pieces at a time, rather than pulling on the whole knot.
