Dark and Lovely Au Naturale Knot Out Detangling Conditioner 8.5oz For Natural Hair
Knot Out is the rinse-out conditioner in the Au Naturale range, and its whole design brief is slip.
Mango oil softens the cuticle so the comb has something to glide on, and bamboo milk adds structural support so the strand can take the tension without giving way. It is sulphate-free, and light enough not to flatten looser curls while still doing something for tight ones.
- Releases stubborn knots on kinky, coily and curly hair
- Holds moisture in, so hair does not go dry by mid-afternoon
- Leaves 3A to 4C textures soft without any weight
- Slots into a normal wash day with no extra steps
Use it after shampoo. Apply from tips to roots rather than the other way round, then work through the stubborn sections with fingers or a detangling brush before rinsing. 8.5oz.
Dark and Lovely has been making products for textured hair for decades, and this is a straightforward example of it.

Application tips
Four sections, clipped, is the difference between five minutes and twenty.
Coat each one while it is still under the shower stream so the water helps it spread, then leave it in place while you do the next. By the time you come back to the first section the knots have already loosened. Rinse each section separately and clip it away wet, so nothing re-tangles while you finish the rest.
Results
Slip is the whole measure and it arrives immediately. Knots that would take a fight come apart under your fingers, and the handful of hair you normally lose at this stage drops to almost nothing.
Curls stay soft and springy afterwards rather than weighed down, which matters on looser patterns. Moisture holds through the day instead of disappearing by lunchtime.
