Other owners of long, curly hair: What do you do to prevent or remove tangles?

I had much shorter hair pre-pandemic, so I'm relatively new at this. (It's now even longer than in my profile pic.)

@peterdrake oh that's easy. Buy a conditioner that you apply a bit of after you rinse out the shampoo. Then rinse again. Combing will be a breeze! If I had not known about conditioner for my curly hair decades ago, i would never have been able to get out the tangles. Doesn't need to be expensive brand. In fact I use Suave from grocery store!

@PamW How often do you do this? Do you condition on days when you don't use shampoo?

@peterdrake nope only when I shampoo which is every few days depending on how lazy i am

@peterdrake and a little goes a long way. I never use "leave in" conditioners because they just make my hair tacky and needing to wash sooner.
