I read Mr. John's Holistic Guide to Black Hair Growth. I think that is the name of it. Anyways, he has a section in there about hair knotting back on the individual hair strand. He says that this happens with people who have what is considered to be tightly curled hair or 4a/4b for people that use the hair typing system. When the hair is wet and allowed to stay in its natural state the hair will start to curl and knot. The only way to cure this (These are not my thoughts but his) is to keep the hair midly straightened. I had this problem alot and have never been able to wear my hair all the way out in its full glory. I am too weak to give up the pressing comb for fear that this phenom will happen again. He also said that women should set their hair loosely on sponge rollers to keep their press longer but to never curl it tight wear you see an indention in the roller. Overall, it is a good read. He hates relaxed hair and doesn't think it will grow, but people on this sight prove that wrong everyday. Just look at Adrienne's hair. It is absolutely stunning. Well, just some thoughts on the knotting issue.
