Yes, there is a bit more nuance to brushing your hair than going straight at it with the hairbrush/comb of your choice every morning. After all, knots and tangles are a major cause of hair breakage. Here’s what you need to do:
Detangle In The Shower
Detangle your hair in the shower with a wide-toothed comb while there’s conditioner in it. This is when your hair is soft and malleable, thus making it easier and less painful to detangle it.
Use A Boar Bristle Brush Or Wide-Toothed Comb
If you have been using a round brush or metal brush to detangle your hair, you need to stop right away. These brushes are meant to be used when you are blow-drying your hair. For everyday use, opt for a boar bristle brush, wide-toothed comb, or stagger toothed comb to remove the knots and tangles from your hair.
Detangle From The Ends To The Scalp
You may not know this, but detangling your hair from the roots to the ends can create more knots and ultimately lead to more breakage. The correct way to go about it is to start a few inches above the ends and brush downwards, slowly working your way up to the scalp.
