The Difference Between Menstrual Washing and Janabah Washing in a Woman's Braid

Question
Is menstrual washing like janabah washing in terms of not undoing the braids, and is there a disagreement among the scholars regarding this? What is the prevailing opinion?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The washing after menstruation does not differ from that after sexual impurity regarding the braid or anything else; it is the same in their rulings, and God knows best.
