Sharp edges can lacerate delicate hair strands, potentially leaving you with uneven ends. Trichologist a dermatologist who specializes in hair Anabel Kingsley recommends that consumers specifically avoid metal combs and boar bristle brushes.
Boar bristle brushes are similarly menacing as they easily tear away sections of the hair cuticle and the cuticle is very important. Because everyone's hair is so different and we don't have hard scientific evidence for every comb or brush on the market, your own experience might be a pretty good indicator of if a certain brush or a comb is better for you.
Try several out, pay attention, and see how they feel. If you find that using a certain brush or comb, in particular, prompts you to groom your hair more gently, that's a pretty solid sign that you should stick with it.
The same goes for if you find a brush or a comb that goes through your hair without a great deal of resistance. It's not often that you find a comb or a brush that goes through your hair like butter -- if you're ever lucky enough to find one, be sure to treasure it. Ultimately, the strategies you use to detangle your hair may be more important than the tools you use to do it.
Regardless of if you choose a comb or a brush, research has shown that being gentle while styling is key to preventing damage. If a knot is being tricky and refusing to come out, you may want to try gently detangling it with your fingers instead. Speaking of being gentle to hair while brushing, the products you use in the shower can improve your hair-brushing results. Also -- this is a picture of the machine used in the study to measure the rates of hair breakage.
It was custom built for the researchers -- cool, no? The study didn't elaborate on which conditioner was used or include the ingredients that were used in the conditioner, which is, of course, a tad disappointing. Combs come in a variety of colours, materials and lengths, but basically they are all the same. Even a wide-toothed comb can work as a regular comb. On the other hand, hairbrushes are more diverse. While combs serve for styling, brushes are a necessary first step in grooming your hair.
It is important to choose a brush that works best for your hair type. For example, if you have straight hair that is not too thick, you can use just about any type of comb or brush. On the other hand, when you have curly or thick hair, using the wrong hairbrush can be a nightmare. So, knowing the different types of combs and brushes will certainly make it easier for you to choose the right one for your hair.
Also, sticking with the right hair care routine is another piece of the puzzle of having healthy hair. Using the right products and tools is a foolproof formula to have the healthy and shiny locks of your dreams. The confusion with having to choose between things is what helps her write for the blog, in the hope of making it easier for readers who are indecisive themselves.
Interested in contrasts, like period dramas and sci-fi, casual and classy outfits, fries and detox shakes, the life of this young lady is anything but boring. Or is it?
