Yes Dejuan. Make that a resounding YES!
And that's exactly the reason I was nagging you to braid your hair (even just square plaits) at night before you put on your plastic cap and when you wash your hair. Braids stretch your hair so it doesn't shrink or curl up too much. And in that slightly straight state, it won't be so hard to comb.
I know a lot of people with natural Type 4A/B hair, including myself. And I don't know a single one of them with hair more than 2 inches long and with the intention of growing it, who goes to bed without putting it in square plaits. It's the only way I know of keeping your hair tangle free...unless you decide to wear cornrows/braids or twists as a style and leave it the heck alone.
So now I'm really intrigued...
Will you put your hair in square braids tonight?
Do tell!
Remember no need to pull your hair when you do them. Be gentle, and moisturize each section before braiding and make sure it's combed well, starting from the ends and moving the comb further down each section till you can comb right through the length of your hair, before you braid. Please be patient take your time when combing. Then put on a plastic cap for the night. Tomorrow morning combing will be so much easier. Unless you need to wear your hair out, I'd leave the square braids in and wear a du rag over your cap or plastic wrap. Only coz the less you mess with your hair, the better for it. And you'll get less breakage.
