The key to healthy hair is the right comb

Lovely curls – what all women dream of. There are many different hair care products: all kinds of shampoos, balms, conditioners, masks, sprays, elixirs, etc. But the use of cosmetics alone is not enough, because one of the main components of a healthy and lush head of hair is a properly selected comb. How not to make a mistake in choosing this item for hair care?

Firstly, a woman's arsenal should not have one comb, because in different situations, hair requires different care. So, before going to bed, you should use a comb with natural bristles. However, if you have thick curly hair, you may want to opt for a mixed bristle brush that can handle this type of hair.

You can choose a comb based on your hair type and purpose:

• brushing and "skeleton" are suitable for styling;
• To comb wet hair, you can use a rubber or rubber comb;
• comb with mixed bristles suitable for hair extensions;
• Curly and unruly locks are easier to deal with with a comb with wide and sparse teeth;
• in order to improve the blood circulation of the hair, you should choose a massage comb;
• The use of combs is appropriate for creating partings, styling and haircuts, and it is also convenient to comb short hair with them.

You should carry a wooden comb with you, because it does not electrify or injure your hair, so it is ideal for use throughout the day. In order to distribute the mask or balm along the entire length of the hair, just such a comb will come in handy.

It is better to refuse to buy cheap plastic combs, because due to their use, the hair becomes brittle and split ends. More suitable are combs made of materials such as silicone or carbon. By the way, it is in favor of those that hairdressers make their choice. With the help of carbon specialists comb the hair and give it volume, and silicone ones are used for cutting and coloring.

Despite the durability and hygiene of metal combs, they do not bring any benefit to the hair and scalp. Moreover, due to the constant microtraumas resulting from the use of such brushes, the condition of the hair only worsens. In fact, such combs can only be used to quickly and effectively separate hair into separate strands and in case you need to make a pile. Direct use is not recommended if you want to keep your hair healthy.

Recently, the use of special round brushes for styling, called brushing, has become especially common. Thanks to this comb, you can create the perfect styling and soften your hair. However, do not get carried away with such brushes, exactly like hot styling.

To provide complete hair care, it is not necessary to purchase a whole arsenal of various brushes. It is enough to get just two combs of different shapes: one made of wood, the other – for styling (brushing). Forget about buying men's small combs with small and often spaced teeth. The latter only tear and tangle the hair.

Remember to wash your comb. Do this a couple of times every month using warm water and soap.
