Is this shed/broken off hair that's tangling up in the clothes dryer?
If it's shedding it's probably part of it's natural growth cycle, and she needs to brush regularly (before a shower) so she collects it on the brush (so it doesn't go down the drain or anywhere else).
It's normal to lose about 100 hairs a day, so brushing once a day, or every other day should catch them in the brush.
We tend to lose more right after we've had a baby (being pregnant keep natural shedding down, so when it's over it catches up with it) or if there's a thyroid problem (a severe drop in thyroid activity will cause massive hair loss).
If it's breaking off, it's being treated too roughly (and will look awful with split ends) and/or her nutrition/health is being stressed in some way.
If she can braid it at night, she can keep it from getting tangled/snarled.
If she can braid it or have it up in a bun during the day, she'll keep it from getting tangled in the seat belt, sitting on it, having it blow out the car window, etc.
I let my hair air dry - no blow dryer on it unless the heat is turned all the way off.
I gave up on perming, curling irons - anything that heats/cooks my hair.
I gave up commercial hair dye and only henna it once every 8 or so weeks.
Treating it carefully keeps it looking great, and I don't have hair all over the house (or in the dryer).
