Is Your Hair Dreadlocked or Padlocked with Matted and Tangled Knots?

It doesn’t make sense how or why the hair can intertwine to create webs of layers of deep matrices of matted tangled knots. 

There is so much strength in our hair.  Samson was evidence of that.  Our hair has a important function to our body, it’s a part and member of our body.  

One hair strand can speak volumes about the health of the body. Hair is not just for external beauty.   

In fact hair samples do not deteriorate, it is widely used as a proven method in the medical and sports profession for testing.  Hair samples are fast efficient and leads to more accurate results.

Hairs are one of the most important parts of the human body. They are not only a part of the body but they are an essential component in making the appearance more attractive.






Detangling very matted tangled hair is such a strange type of work!


There are many jobs in the world that are so strange-its amazing that our brains can’t even make sense of it.  In fact the bible says that God does strange work- Isaiah 28:21.

The effects of matted tangled hair are so deep that you may feel that your hair is not just dreadlocked, but padlocked.  this is why living with severely matted tangled hair is increasingly becoming a health concern for many people.

Many people don’t consider the health risks can come with matted hairs.  When wash day crosses most minds, they think of the smell of their favorite shampoo and catching up on our favorite shows while our hair is deep conditioning. Sometimes we overlook one of the most important parts of this task: detangling.

When hair gets matted, your first instinct may be to cut it all off and let it grow out anew hair. This is not so for Tangled Hair Techs who is an expert at de-knotting. For most women, severely tangled hair was not an issue of concern until they experienced hair loss and pre-mature balding.

Some early medical descriptions of matted hair termed it as a disease of the head or body where hair agglutinated due to a nauseous discharge from the roots of the hair (Beach & Rines, 1904). Schuster (1968), referring to Lefevre, added that plica polonica was a malady changing healthy hair into a foul matted hair forming plaits or twisted strands, alternatively called polish plaits. Referring to Agnes (1952).

Depression can become worse with matted tangled hair. Many people are praying to save their severely tangled matted hair instead of shaving it off.  You may ask why should anyone pray about preserving, saving or protecting their hair?   

Well why not?    We pray about other things.  Who says one thing has more value than another in Gods ears?  Is there a hierarchy of things to pray about or for?  Even Samson prayed for strength one last time after his mistake. 
What does God have to do with my hair. 
There is a whole section of the bible surrounding strength in hair.  God made a vow about hair.  Judges 13-16.  Samson had physical power in him-his hair was his secret.  There are many women in the world with long beautiful hair who might not admit it openly, but their hair is a silent secret to their beauty.  Its apart of their power of self.  People both admire and envy their hair.  It adds to self esteem/identity-which affects our strength and self worth indirectly. 

The Bible says in Philippians 4:6-7.  “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God….And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Horrible Hairdressers Or Sad Salon Experiences, Is There Really A Difference?





Has your hairdresser or salon rejected you because your hair looks like this?

Earnestly or Anxiously ready to cut your hair because your hair looks like this?

Judged you because your hair is severely matted, tangled, knotted in a ball, matted in a clump, birds nest, or dreadlocked like this?


Well if they have- then be aware that simply cutting tangled, knotted or matted hair leads to depression.  Matted hair can also be  a manifestation of deep depression.



Even though an awful experience can trigger a depressive illness. When hair becomes seriously tangled or matted, most people become so scared.  They don’t want to cut their hair.

Some people go into denial by allowing their hair to stay this way.  They are so ashamed to go out in public or to even to their salon.  Inevitably their hair gets worse.

Although depression can be caused by a variety of factors, such as genes, personal experiences, environmental influences or psychological factors. Hair is a major attribute of every persons identity and when the hair becomes matted or severely tangled for long periods of time it affects the self esteem.  This is also compounded with the opinions and judgmental views of others.


Some hair extension, braid or dreadlock methods can last in the hair for 3 months, and up to 1 year. When these hairstyles are removed with homemade remedies it also causes serious damage, hair loss, and in some cases severely tangled or matted hair. 

Hair loss can cause depression as well, but very matted hair tends to lead to depression faster.  Its the shame,self blame and loss of self esteem causes most women to begin concealing knots or clumps of matted hair-this is what leads to deep depression and frustration. 

In society today self esteem seems to be generally lower than it should be and it is often accompanied by poor body image.  Research suggests that self-image and appearance are very much interchangeable.

While depression is highly treatable, medical research reveals that the sooner a person is treated the more effective that treatment will be. Studies have also shown that immediate treatment reduces the likelihood of recurrence.

Matted tangled hair must be detangled immediately, it can lead to changes in thinking or mood.  We are able to take down tangled matted knotted hair through and with the tangible touch of GOD.


13 year old with matted hair

The  back of my head has become matted due to putting in dreadlocks the wrong way (sectioning them horribly) It has been left uncombed for 3 months now and it is very curly. I live around Chicago and I wanted to know if you had any places around there. I have tried olive oil and lots of conditioner and none are good enough to get out the back of my head and when my mom took me to a salon all they told me was "put olive oil in or shave it off". Please respond - I really don't want to have to shave my head or chop a whole lot of it off.

in need of help.

Matted hair after permanent colour in UK

Hi
Can you please help??? I am a salon manager in a training college and today  we had a client come in for a permanent root tint, she had a mixture of African Caribbean/ Asian hair, she had a baby 10 weeks ago and is breast feeding. She had a wella koleston permanent tint on her roots and it was shampooed with wella colour shampoo and conditioner.
When the student took her to the section it had matted into a huge box type birds nest clump!! We spent four hours using extra virgin olive oil trying to detangle it!! The client eventually became extremely head sore and wanted to go home we put it in a net and she is coming back on Monday to try again, she has long hair and the clump is in the middle she does not want it cut, can you please tell me what to do next? Very desperate for help ASAP

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.

Got Tangled, Matted or Dreadlocked Hair?








Severely Matted And Tangled Hair Have Become New Causes of Hair Loss And Baldness In Women.
For most women, severely tangled hair was not an issue of concern until they experienced hair loss and pre-mature balding.
"Women call us in fear, depressed with tears, self blame and loss of self esteem because they have been concealing knots or clumps of matted hair –i.e. ‘birds nest’ in their hair for weeks and they don’t want to go bald”
Internationally for most women hair represents a very essential part of their overall appearance. It is to be praised and emulated. But for an increasing number of women, unexpected hair loss and balding has been triggered early due to incidents with unsympathetically matted and tangled hair.
A Survey conducted by Optima Hair Specialists in Birmingham, UK has revealed that 47 per cent of hair loss sufferers would spend their life savings to regain a full head of hair. Also the survey revealed that 46 per cent of hair loss sufferers questioned started losing their hair between the ages of 18 and 25. 45 per cent of people stated that their social life has been severely damaged due to their hair loss and 72 per cent of sufferers say that they are often perceived as much older than they actually are.
Although matted or tangled hair can be caused by illnesses, hospitalizations, improper removal of braids, hair extensions, un-healthy hair maintenance, improper use of hair products as perms, dyes, gels, relaxers and sprays-women cannot allow their hair to remain in a matted/tangled state for too long.
When a women’s hair becomes seriously tangled or matted, they become so scared because they do not want to cut their hair. Unfortunately they allow their hair to stay this way for weeks at a time-only for their hair to get worse. This will begin to affect the hair follicles-which can lead to Alopecia.”
Alopecia areata is characterized by hair falling out, resulting in smooth, round patches on the scalp. In some cases, alopecia areata can cause the complete loss of scalp and body hair. The condition is most common in people under 30. Baldness occurs by a gradual shrinking of the follicle that produces the hair.
"It's easier to stop losing hair, than to replace hair that's gone," says Dr. Richard Strick, a dermatologist and UCLA clinical professor of dermatology. "Once the follicle has shut down it's difficult, sometimes impossible, to re-stimulate.""Women's hair loss is much more common than most people realize," according to Alan J. Bauman, M.D., a leading U.S. hair restoration physician. Women have a 35-percent chance of experiencing hair loss by age 50, but the condition can occur anytime after puberty.
According to Dr. Bauman of Bauman Medical Group in Boca Raton, Florida, a top U.S. expert on female hair loss who's treated hundreds of women over the last 10 years, the top seven health factors commonly associated with female hair loss are:
(1) MENOPAUSE - Hair thinning is a common complaint of women undergoing menopause. The condition coincides with a decrease in the production of estrogen and progesterone, the female sex hormones.
(2) POST-PREGNANCY - During pregnancy, a woman's hair grows faster and feels more luxurious thanks to increases in hormones which keep a higher than normal number follicles in a growth phase. However, after giving birth, the sudden drop in hormones often causes shedding and thinning as the ratio of growing/resting follicles returns to normal.
(3) CRASH DIETING - Unhealthy dieting and/or rapid weight loss may cause hair follicles to go into "shock," resulting in increased shedding and a loss of volume that may last for months - or, in some cases, indefinitely - even after a healthy diet is resumed.
(4) TRACTION ALOPECIA - Over time, certain hairstyles (e.g. tight braiding) and hair extensions can traumatize follicles and lead to permanent bald spots in the scalp, a condition known as "traction alopecia."
(5) TRICHOTILLOMANIA - Compulsive hair-pulling, or trichotillomania, can also lead to permanent bald spots in the scalp, eyebrows and eyelashes.
(6) PLASTIC SURGERY - Browlifts and facelifts can alter the appearance of the frontal hairline and may lead to both decreased hair density and scarring in those areas.
(7) STRESS - Severe emotional stress and trauma can also take a toll on the body, often leading to excessive shedding and thinning that can last for weeks.
The best way women can prevent tangled or matted hair is to change their natural hair care regimens even if they wear hairstyles that include added hair extensions.
We provide many solutions to tangled or hardheartedly matted hair and we have been very successful at it. However, we recommend that “as with almost any type of illness, hair loss and baldness can be prevented if resolved early enough." "The key is not to deny or blame yourself for the problem your hair is in, but solve it by saving your hair."
Tangled Hair Techs are the leading experts trained in the Technique of Take Down Removal System of de-tangling severely matted hair, dreadlocks, tangled hair clumps, and “Birds Nests” Syndrome. Their mission is to save hair and preserve your God given beauty.

Consumer Demand For Hair Extensions, Braids, Dreadlocks Increase Hair Loss In Women

Braids, Hair Extensions and Dreadlocks have become the latest trend in hair styling and growing in popularity. Improper removal of these hair styles have increased hair loss and hair thinning, according to Tangled Hair Techs of New York.

Although braids, hair extensions and dreadlocks seem to be the latest trend, they actually date back to 4th Century B.C. with the Egyptians, and have continued to grow strong ever since then.
The experts at Tangled Hair Techs believe these styles are more like a hidden conspiracy, which Beyonce and other celebrities have brought out into the open. Tangled Hair Techs are trained in the safest and easiest hair extension, braid, dreadlock removal system.
"As consumer demand for braids, dreadlocks and hair extensions has grown, clients have become less knowledgeable about the methods of proper removal processes," says Sheila Smith, Lead Educator. "Paris Hilton has her own hair extension line of products that don’t provide an effective Removal System for the hair.
"Some hair extension, braid or dreadlock methods can last in the hair for 4 months, and up to two years. Clients try to remove these hairstyles with homemade remedies, which cause serious damage, hair loss, and in some cases severely tangled or matted hair.

“When a women’s hair becomes seriously tangled or matted, they become so scared because they don’t want to cut their hair. Unfortunately they allow their hair to stay this way for weeks at a time-only for their hair to get worse. This will begin to affect the hair follicles-which can lead to Alopecia.” According to Tangled Hair Techs, Take Down Remover trained experts in the technique of removal, de-tangling and restoration.

Women have a 35-percent chance of experiencing hair loss by age 50, but the condition can occur anytime after puberty.

The need for effective human hair extension, braid and dreadlock removal has grown enormously because nearly one out of every three women worldwide suffers from some sort of hair loss, as well as the emotional distress that it causes.
