Correct Answer: 4,5,2,1,3
Moistening the hair lightly with water, conditioner, or an alcohol-free detangle product before combing makes hair easier to comb and is the first step. Parting the hair into two sections, then separating hair into two more sections, is the second step. Brushing and combing are more effective when small areas of hair are groomed at any one time. Moving the fingers through the hair to loosen tangles makes hair easier to comb. This is the third step. Brushing or combing from the scalp toward the end of the hair minimizes pulling and is the fourth step. Using a wide-tooth comb, start on either side of the head, and insert the comb with the teeth upward to the hair near the scalp. Comb through the hair in a circular motion by turning the wrist while lifting up and out. Continue until all hair is combed through, and then comb into place to shape and style. This is the final step and moves the comb evenly through hair without pulling.
