Combing your hair twice every day is sufficient to keep it tangle free. Brushing it too many times will cause hair strain that will make hair frizzy. Avoid combing when the hair is wet as this is the time when it is prone to breakage. Always use a wide-toothed comb to reduce friction as well as damage to the hair.
