How To Clean Natural Bristle Hair Brushes

Never use a brush on wet hair. Brushing pulls the hair shaft causing it to break. Always use a wide-toothed comb on freshly washed hair to avoid breakage and stress to your hair. Combining the use of a wide-toothed comb with a leave-in conditioner will keep hair healthy and give it an enviable sheen.

When choosing a brush to use on your hair, choose one with soft bristles, instead of hard ones. There are brushes available that are made of animal fibers or soft bristles that will be easier on your hair and not cause any type of damage to your beautiful hair!

Use a soft brush made out of animal hairs instead of plastic. Do not brush your hair when it is wet and always be gentle. You should start at the end of your hair and work your way up as you gently untangle all the knots. Make sure you take your time!

Natural animal hair brushes are the best choice when it comes to brushes for your hair. The bristles are softer and will flex more. The flexible brushes will cause less damage than using a brush that has stiff, plastic bristles on it. Be sure to choose one that also has smooth tips on it.

Do not put too much stress on your hair, if you are going to pull your hair up into a pony tail or braid it you should do it gently and not pull it too tightly. Also if you are going to brush it do it gently and softly.

While an old wives tale states that you must brush your hair for one hundred strokes every day to achieve health, this is untrue. The only thing you will achieve by brushing this often is an overstimulated scalp that produces too much oil and makes your hair look oily and flat. Only brush until the tangles are removed.

Use blow-dryers with caution. Blow-drying can be harsh on your hair, so if you must use one, make sure you are using it correctly. Always aim the dryer so that the nozzle points down the shaft of your hair, away from your scalp. Use a round brush to isolate individual sections of your hair for drying, and use the cool setting to set your hair when you are done.

Don’t brush or comb your hair when it is wet. Your hair could be damaged most when wet. Wait until the hair is almost at its driest to brush it. Wet hair is tangled hair, and people have a propensity to tug and pull on tangles and thus damage their hair. So, avoid wet combing!

Proper hair care involves presenting yourself to the world in the way you want to be perceived. While, most people do not like to be liked for their looks, it is something that you can not avoid. Continue on for some great hair care tips that you can use to show everyone how great your hair is.
