Colorado Springs Hair Mess…. Salons & Hairdressers Don’t Really Want To Detangle Hair

It’s a shame and disgrace for us as hairdressers to hear how many of the women who contact us to detangle their severely matted tangled hair, go to their favorite salons or other hairstylists for assistance and the first response or only response they get is  Have You Considered A NEW HAIR CUT!!

We are working hard to train and hire more people who will want to save your hair. This is the website link to buy the super detangler product we use-http://www.freewebstore.org/How-To-Detangle-Hair-Videos/Hair_Products/cat1080367_1018887.aspx

Hi, I live in Colorado Springs and my hair has become matted in the back of my head.  I wear a head scarf most of the time to cover it up but I can't go around like this all the time.

I had it happen once before, and a salon was able to comb it out, but the whole time the woman was demeaning and nasty to me, kept demanding, "What did you do to make it like this?"  and treated me like I was scum.  Very judgmental. 

I was determined not to let it happen again but it did.  I think it's from keeping it in a ponytail, plus the dry air, sleeping on cotton pillowcases causing static, etc.  I haven't had this happen this bad until I moved out here from a more humid part of the country.

Anyway, it's matted again in the back and I can't get it out by myself, period.  I don't have any family or close friends here who can help me.  I got up the courage to go to another salon where there were a half dozen ladies sitting around with nothing to do in the afternoon, but when they saw me they said "Oh we won't do that, we'll just shave your head."  And then they laughed at me when I put my scarf back on and left.  

I wish these beauty schools would teach their students not to be such judgmental witches.

Do you know of anyone in the Colorado Springs area who can help me get this out?  I would like to try to find a different job, in an office (I work in a factory now) where I can't have hair like this.  I think I was a little depressed when I got the hair tangles and now it's worse, I feel like I'm in hiding.  When I got the hair untangled before, I felt so free. I want to feel like that again. 

I put an ad on Craigslist asking for help but no one has responded.  Could you help me?

Thanks,

MMM

Dear Sir/Madam

i found your email address and phone number on internet (youtube). I would like to ask you , if you could help me.
I found myself in very difficult situation. My baby boy was born before Christmas, he has a several health problems and was diagnosed to have genetic condition. A two weeks ago, he undergo heart surgery at Great Ormond Street Hospital. He spent a most of his life in the hospital. And I was by his side all the time. I suffered with stress and I stopped looking after myself as I haven't got time and thoughts for this.
I was so worried about my little one as he had heart failure and was rushed to the hospital.
I have long hair (nearly till waist), and now my hair are one big mess, one big tangle. I went to see hairdresser, but she said that it looks like they would have to cut my hair short. I was looking through internet, but youtube videos i saw, nobody had so horrible hair as i have now. Then I saw yours one and it was more like my hair.

Please please, i don't know what  to do. Please, could you help me? I live near Edgware Great London. I had never have a short hair. Please help me.
Thank you very much.
Kind regards.

REPAIRERS OF THE BREACH- THE ART OF DETANGLING HAIR

The art of detangling hair involves more than just separating hair that has strategically interwoven on itself in a maze beyond human understanding; detangling hair is about HEALING. There are so many reasons why women and men contact us about their tangled matted hair.

Dear THT,
I was blessed with a baby boy three months ago. After I received my first period after delivery my hair has become impossibly tangled and half of it comes out each time I shampoo my hair. What treatment do you recommend?
Thank you kindly, from Mexico

Hi
I was just researching solutions for severely matted hair and came across your web-site.
Do you have any techs in Pennsylvania?

Do you have any tangled hair techs in the Los Angeles area? I recently had a baby and have been taking quick - 90 second showers w/out having the time to comb through my hair. My husband was off the other day so I planned to spend time combing my hair out when I realized it was very matted on the right side. I ordered the take down product and have been trying to detangle my hair but no luck. I REALLY don't want to cut it. Can you please help?

i live in king of prussia pa and have a giant ball of matted, knotted hair that i need to get out possibly by friday! CAN YOU HELP ME?

Hi, I live in the Boston MA area, where are you located. My story is as follows, started three years ago with a really horrible hair cut, the stylist, said he had a special technique which bends and curls the hair, I have baby fine, super straight dark blone hair, was natural toehead til 30's.

He cut the hair dry with hairspray on it.............then I passed out drunk at a party and my hair was sheared like a ribbon which coils, they also put eyelash stimulator all over my scalp, then, three more bad cuts by other sytlists. then went to alleged superstylist to get a corrective cut, he gave me a justin bieber (sp) cut so the hair was cut to come forward from the back, then extensions with heat and glue which ripped out of my head without my pulling, big bald spots, hair seems to have regrown.

however all it does now after new stylist and 2 keratin express blow outs and cuts which suck the hair is just clumping and tangling and the eyelash hair is more coarse, so the real hair is just winding around it and it pulls and hurts so much, it is now thinning and you can see bald spots it wont go back or side ways and it is impossible to even part or get a line in the hair to blunt cut...........I have also had many surgeries and illnesses throughout the past 15 years, I saw my primary care md and he said he could not see any medical reason for this....I have a preexisting anxiety/panic disorder which I am medicated for, I almost lost my husband 10 months ago and the stress has taken its toll on my weight, hair and skin. I am using products the orabi and taking super food vitamins, my appetite and diet stinks. I am not a woman of financial means I am an artist, currently starving, litterally and figuratively! I am hoping there may be some compassionate person out there to help me.... I have not been able to work for the psst two years as I severely fractured my wrist which required four surgeries and two bone grafts, the last surgery on the wrist being in September 2011, my husband underwent a routine cardiac procedure resulting in a hole being lasered into his superior vena cava, he bled out, coded on the table had a stroke and required a 12 hour surgery to save his life, he was on life support for months and rehab for months, he is now doing so much better, I have a lot of medical knowlege and a biotechnology background so I was his primary care md at home, I was very brave and never flinched during this time, but now that things are better, I am a wreck and so ashamed of the way I look, I can't tell you. Can you help me...I think you are located in Boca, maybe i could get bus fare, I have a friend there I may be able to stay with, or maybe there is someone in Massachusetts that you know. I am going to see a shrink now in addition to doing accupunture and polarity massage and mind and body wellness programs. I am really trying, I am 49 and in menopause as well and taking no hormones as I smoke. My medicine is ativan, baclofen I have cervical dystonia which causes severe neck spasms and pain, seeing a neurologist in Feb. and also taking 5 mg of vicodin a day for the pain still in my wrist. Sorry for the very long message, but I am hoping somone can help. I am not a nut or anything close, i am a strong independent woman, but currently in crisis. Thank you so very much for your time and possible help.

Hello,

My mom was in a car accident and was unable to wash her hair for 10 weeks. We tried washing it yesterday and it was okay, but as soon as it dried it formed really big knots in 3 separate places and is very uncomfortable. Took her to couple of different salons and they all said it need to be cut, it is tangled in several places near the roots. Is there anything you can do to help? We live in Houston,TX. Thank you and please get back to us as soon as you can.
Thank you for your time,

Hello,

I read on the takedownproducts.com website that Tangled Hair Techs is looking for individuals who are interested in learning how to detangle hair...
I am very interested in learning how to do so.

I live in the Caribbean island of Barbados and about six-months ago after my own braid extension take down disaster, I started educating myself about hair because I wanted to take the best care of my own hair as possible. I am not a hairdresser, but I have come to realize how I often neglected and mistreated my hair through ignorance.  I just got tired entrusting the care of my hair to persons who were not concerned with helping me to grow, maintain and retain my hair and decided to take responsibility for my beloved strands...
So how do I go about learning how to detangle hair?
Looking forward to hearing from you,

Hello,
My name is Phenice and I wanted to know what your hiring process is.
I do not have a cosmetology license. Would that be a problem?
I enjoy doing hair and being a mother of three girls I know the struggle of combing and De-tangling hair.
Please let me know.
Hello,
Although I've had dandruff for years now, presently i'm experiencing hair loss especially in the middle of my head where the hair use to be more.
what do you advice?
I wouldn't mind coming for consultation if necessary.
your prompt response shall be appreciated.

1 Year Matted Tangled Mess-Literally, a life-THREATENING hair crisis....VERY depressed‏

A warm friendly, but heartbroken "hello" from the United States...

Briefly, this is my situation that i've been attempting to deal with for a shocking looong humiliating, and v e r y SCARY year...

[honestly, i can't remember the last time i could actually let myself see my own reflection in a mirror...i avoid them at all costs...]

My waist length naturally curly and natural reddish blond/apricot colored hair has always been the ONLY part of my outward physical appearance i've ever really liked...ever since i was a young child people frequently made nice complimentary remarks about my hair...i would definitely "stick out" in a crowd since my hair has been a very unique color that i've NEVER seen on anyone else before...

definitely not auburn, not red, not blond, but kind of a bright apricot with light reddish/blond hairs...and very wavy...

i was so happy as a child that my mom never had to wrap rags around it for curls like all my girl cousins had to have done since my hair was already wavy and SO easy to take care of...while a bit on the dry side as most curly/wavy hair is, but i always took very good care of my hair so it's been real healthy...

Then about exactly one whole YEAR ago an illness/accident kept me hospitalized for nearly six weeks during which time nobody thought to comb/brush my hair...[i also had to remain flat on my back so perhaps the caretakers who bathed me everyday were afraid they might hurt me by fooling with my hair due to all the stitches, etc.]

As you can imagine i'm sure, this was a very VERY stressful time for me, and i worried non-stop as i had no health insurance and was quickly burning through my savings while i was unable to work. [i'm a fibre artist ] at any rate, after i was finally able to come home from the hospital, i was still pretty weak, and my hair had become quite matted...mostly in the back...and underneath and i tried for a few days to get it combed out to no avail..

then since i'd just noticed a small patch of gray around my right temple, i decided to get a box of hair dye [permanent] that i'd just recently seen that came so close to my own natural color...i figured it would also make my hair so soft from all the added conditioning that it would then be quite easy to comb through the mats/tangles....one of the most traumatic horrific decisions of my life that has caused me [please believe i'm not exaggerating or being overly dramatic, but the results have simply caused me unspeakable untold grief and loss...

After getting out of the shower that morning, my hair had instantly become one big GIANT dreadlock poking up and off the side of my head at a very odd and awkward angle...honest to God there wasn't one SINGLE strand of hair on my entire head that wasn't somehow inextricably wound...and wound T I G H T L Y around another hair...it was as if my hair had become "felted" nearly all the way to my scalp... to say i "paniced" doesn't even begin to express accurately what i was going thru...[aND STILL AM BUT MUCH WORSE A YEAR LATER]

here's the sad irony..."THE REAL h a r d KICK IN my BEHIND"...i had a date for later that night...and my VERY FIRST DATE in T H I R T E E N whole YEARS while i raised my son i'd adopted from an overseas orphanage...anyway, i'd just recently joined match dot com before my horrible accident, and had posted some really nice photographs i was a little proud of [i'm 57 years old and look much younger]my son had just taken for my online profile, and i was already getting lots of encouraging responses from seemingly very nice gentlemen...many of which specifically mentioned how it was the unusual color of my hair...or the length of it with all those waves is what initially caught their attention and got them to stop and read my profile...
can you begin to imagine my hysteria???

I rushed to the best salon in town where for several hours, 2 women who refused to apply any lubricating product [afraid of "blisters"] just aggressively poked and jabbed at my head with the sharpened metal point of a comb while alternately ripping out chunks of my hair literally by the roots while just breaking off other big pieces of hair sometimes within just 3 inches of my scalp [my hair was WAIST len gth]... i tried to remain calm [ knowing darn well i'd be losing much hair and more than likely was going to end up having to get many many inches [in length] cut off] while the pile of hair they were ripping out was growing at my feet larger and larger and larger...til i'd had enough of their "rough" unprofessional treatment and ever so slight insinuation that perhaps i 'd gotten a little lazy and just hadn't combed my hair in a long time causing the problem by "personal neglect"...i paId them [and an obscene amount] and cried hysterically all the way home, and literally trembled when i had to call my date, by then just 2 hr's from the time he was to pick me up, and CANCEL it...i was mortified...

One year later...i've tried every product on the market without luck...then i discovered your "take down" products which i just purchased. i also bought a "hebeutiful" hair steamer thinking it might help...any possibility I could be used as a model in one of your classes or commercials....i'm so far beyond DESPERATE, and would be your most grateful appreciative client ever!!! i'll also appreciate any comments you may have for me.....

many hugs,

debbie

I am a hairdresser in Tucson Arizona and I need some serious immediate help.  One of my clients came in today for a Ketatin Smoothing treatment, I clarified her hair in prep for the service and her hair matted!  Right before my eyes!  She's flipping out, I'm flipping on the inside but trying to be calm and professional for her sake.  We spent 4 hours and dropped the mat about 2 inches.  Forget the treatment. 

So, my question is, is there ANYONE in Tucson who has this product?  Anyone who will give me some, sell me some, loan me some, anything, anyone?  I'm desperate.  After looking online, I see that her mat is definately not the worst that's out there, but it is to her.  And so I'm willing to do what needs to be done.  Please help me.
