I’d take a photo of the sky here, but I think I’d be unpopular. 😃
Suffice it to say that I don’t miss going an entire week without seeing the sun.

Quick question - are those shower combs any good for detangling towel dried wet hair? Or do they only work well in the actual shower for spreading conditioner through?
My hair’s growing out a bit long again and I am going to do something to deal with it.
But for now I’m wondering if the shower comb, or if I get a different style of wide tooth comb for wet hair. (It would be from Kmart/Big W or Colesworth so I can chuck it in with the things I was going to buy anyway).
A third alternative is a generic brand ‘wet brush’ from Ebay.

Best comb I’ve found for washing hair was a #2 about 15 years ago. Super quick lather and rinse since then…haha

As in a buzz cut? It’s been considered, believe me. But I live in an area of ferals and am too tired to add homophobic comments to what I already deal with

comb your hair before washing
I brush mine after it has dried somewhat

I do both of those things. But for me that way leads to much more ripping out of knots. It’s like letting any knots dry only tightens them. And this is with a gentle shampoo and conditioner, because I’m using these bottles up before they expire.
I’d rather just find something very wide toothed I can rake quickly through damp hair but the teeth on the shower comb look a bit blunt and the ‘wet care’ style is basically the same as the comb I have. The wet brush is very similar to the one I have. The tangle teezer style can be used to detangle individual bad knots in lengths (wet or dry) but has such short bristles that it’s difficult to get through hair when trying to brush the top. I might try the combs with angled double teeth.
For context
I had extreme length hair for decades and it was well cared for. I managed it by combing extra products like leave-in through while damp, plaiting it, and brushing it morning and night starting at the tips. But I think it just tangles very easily because it’s so fine and even the shoulder blade/waist length it grew out to again is now too much for the amount of energy I can spare these days. I’m slowing down. I don’t want to buy luxuries like extra hair products.)
I’m also considering how much shorter I can go while still being able to tie it back. For me actual short hairstyles are the most fuss of all so that’s a no. My home cutting method results in layers so can’t go too short without turning it into a wolf cut (which means short pieces getting in my face or requiring pins/clips/styling).
Or I could suck up my intense dislike for salons and pay the money to get a low maintenance straight cut bob that’s barely long enough for an elastic. (If I could cut a neat straight line of the right length at home I would have already done it.)

I bought a Tangle Teezer brush years and years ago and it’s been amazing, it’s effortless. I have their Original brush and it’s great wet or dry, but I see they have one specifically for detangling wet hair too.
There are generics that probably do much the same thing.

I have a knockoff and can use it wet or dry, but it’s only really used for bad knots on lengths. The bristles are a bit short for me.

Too much on at both jobs this week man, I wish I could cruise but no bueno. Tomorrow would’ve been ideal to wfh but I gotta go in for some training, so wasting 45 mins each way in traffic. I’m definitely leaving right on time tomorrow - left at 5:15 and the traffic was disgusting. Second job if I’m lucky I might be able to knock off early on Thursday in lieu of all the extra hours I’ve clocked up, but I’m going to need turbo caffienation.
