For those that use matt breakers or dematting combs, just be aware that they do cut some of the hair. As a result you will end up with varying lengths of hair which then matts even easier. Try applying a good conditioner full strength and gently brushing with the conditioner still on the hair. Some big matts are hopeless but lots of little ones will often brush right out if the hair is slippery with conditioner. Try the brush on your own forearm to make sure you don't scratch your little one's skin. If the brush leaves scratches on your arm, either you are brushing too hard, brushing at an improper angle (keep the brush flat), or you are using a bad brush.
