DETERMINE YOUR HAIR TYPE
Before selecting a brush, assess your hair type and texture. Thin hair can vary from straight to wavy. Knowing exactly what you need enables you to select a better instrument of styling.
BRUSH MATERIAL MATTERS
Use brushes with boar bristles or something that is gentle on hair. Boar bristle brushes evenly distribute natural oils and add shine without breakage. Synthetic bristles can also be suitable if designed thoughtfully.
SIZE AND SHAPE OF BRUSH
Select a brush that suits your styling needs. Paddle brushes are good for straightening and round brushes are good for volume and curls. Choose size based on your hair length and desired style.
AVOID HEAVY BRUSHES
Thick brushes tend to pull and tug on fine hair and that could potentially damage it. Lighter brushes are easier to control, and don't pull as much on the hair strands, so styling is simplified and more efficient.
MAINTAIN YOUR BRUSH
Be sure to wash your hairbrush often to get rid of the excess buildup of product and hair. Plus a clean comb works better and doesn't irritate the scalp as much. Ensure to replace it periodically for optimal results.
STUDY FINDINGS
According to a study published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) , proper hair care practices significantly improve hair health and reduce breakage, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right tools.
CONCLUSION
Invest in a quality hairbrush for gorgeous, healthy-looking hair. Consult a trichologist for personalised advice.
