Not to get too techical about it, but topknots can contain to distinct type of "knots". One is a webtype mass, and the other is a tangle or two.

I spray in to top knot , a leave in conditioner or a lightweight oil. Always work from the ends inwards. I also use Vellus satin cream on the webtype mass. Leave in for a couple of minutes.

I work with fingers and the end of a rat tail comb, and a brush. Section off a small piece of hair to work with. Then start at the end of hair on this small section. Part or finger comb this section to see what you are dealing with. If a tangle use the rat tail end of comb to gently detangle. then comb with wide tooth comb, then smaller tooth comb then brush root to tip.

continue to whole top knot area done.

Don't Panic. It can look like an ungodly mess, but with a fair bit of patience you can detangle and get through it.
