That means I must do something about the tangles and frizz. There is no way I am blowing and spraying my hair all the time. I do not like mornings and anything I don't have to do is the better option. I've figured out some things that work for me and they might work for you, too.
Here are my tips:
Satin Sleep Pillow
This lets the hair slip and slide better
when you sleep. I no longer get those horrible,
painful rats-nests that I used to.
Coconut Oil
I think my hair is dry. I don't use a harsh
shampoo, but it's still dry. The oil works
like a detangler and adds an awesome shine.
And if you get the eatable grade, you can
cook with it, too. Double duty!
Dimethicone
It's a silicone that is in most of those
de-frizzing serums that are made for
curly-haired people. If my hair gets bad,
it gets all these tiny little knots in the
bottom and this stuff stops that. It keeps
down frizz like a magician. And it makes
your hair feel like silk.
Baking Soda
After a while, especially living in the city,
all kinds of stuff builds up in my hair that
won't come out with a gentle shampoo. That's
when my hair starts sticking to stuff like
velcro. A scrub with this stuff every couple
of months keeps my hair squeaky clean. It does
get frizzy for a bit after, though.
And try to keep it up in the wind (yeah, right)

Thanks to the women (and men) of the long hair community forums for most of these tips. If you're having problems with your long hair, I suggest you go there. They know their stuff.
