Why Does Hair Get Tangled and Matted? Causes and Prevention

Understanding Matted Hair and Tangled Hair in London

Tangled hair and matted hair are common issues affecting people of all ages and hair types. Whether your strands are curly, coily, straight, or wavy, friction, lack of moisture, or improper care can cause your hair to tangle. In London, we frequently encounter clients dealing with extreme knots and mats caused by hair extensions, illness, or simply neglect. So, why does hair get tangled? The most frequent reasons include wearing extensions too long, sleeping with unprotected hair, and not brushing regularly.

When hair is left without care—especially after getting poor-quality extensions—knots form deep at the roots, leading to tight mats. This is why detangling hair after extensions must be done professionally. If you’ve searched online for how to detangle hair fast or how to fix matted hair, know that at-home methods often make things worse.

Clients often ask, “Is it better to detangle hair dry or wet?” or “What is the best way to detangle hair?” The answer is: professionally, using the right products and tools. We provide hair detangling services in London that are non-damaging, safe, and effective. From best hair detangler recommendations to full matted hair removal, our solutions cover it all.

Tangled hair after being bedridden is also common. Lack of movement, prolonged lying, and mental health conditions can lead to neglected hair, which becomes severely matted. We provide compassionate, non-judgmental care for these sensitive cases.

Why Does Hair Get Tangled? And Why Is It Important to Detangle It As Soon As Possible?

Tangled and matted hair is not just an aesthetic issue — it can quickly escalate into a serious hair health problem if left untreated. Hair becomes tangled for many reasons: friction during sleep, dryness, lack of conditioning, skipped brushing, product buildup, poor hair extension installations, and long periods of neglect. Matted clumps, especially at the nape or crown, can form when these factors combine, making it nearly impossible to comb through your hair without professional help.

The question we often hear is: Why is it important to detangle your hair as soon as possible? The answer is simple — early detangling prevents long-term damage. If left for too long, tangled hair can tighten into dense mats that cause stress on your scalp, breakage, traction alopecia, and in extreme cases, may require cutting. Immediate attention reduces discomfort, saves hair length, and restores your hair’s natural beauty.

How to Safely Detangle Severely Matted Hair at Home or in a Salon

Dealing with severely matted hair can be stressful, painful, and emotionally exhausting. Whether caused by illness, neglect, improper extension removal, or postpartum hair changes, matted and tangled hair requires urgent, careful attention. The worst thing you can do is panic and start pulling or cutting the hair — that often results in unnecessary damage or loss.

The safest solution is to book a professional hair detangling service in London at Detangler.co.uk, where we specialise in detangling matted hair without cutting. Our salon uses the best detangling products, such as deep conditioners, detangling masks, oils, and the best detangling brushes for different hair types — curly, coily, straight, or fine.

But if you must attempt light detangling at home, here’s how to do it safely:

  • Saturate the hair with a detangling spray or conditioner

  • Work in small sections from ends to roots

  • Use your fingers first, then a wide-tooth detangling brush

  • Never detangle dry — always work on damp, lubricated hair

  • Be patient and take breaks to avoid scalp trauma
