Hair brush: Which brush for my hair?

It may seem trivial, butbrushing is beneficial for hair. So, take this step carefully to have magnificent hair! Whatever your hairstyle, the brushing process may be necessary for many reasons, although the time may vary. Shall we find the hairbrush that will be perfect for you?

Why should you brush your hair?

It is important to brush your hair to remove dust,knots and dead hair, to have shiny and supple hair, because if you don't, you will end up with knots that form a tangled mess, and the same goes for your synthetic or natural wig.

Brushing/detangling also helps to distribute sebum throughout your hair to protect it from aggressions and to moisturize it. This can help with a sebum treatment, but don't forget to detangle your hair with a good brush/comb.

Depending on your hair type, you should brush it more or less regularly, but brushing your hair too much can damage it and break your hair fiber, so be careful! Therefore, if necessary, use a hair detangler.

Brush your hair well from top to bottom to avoid damaging it!

If you have hair falling out while brushing, it's normal. If you want to know more, check out our blogHair Loss: What to do?

Different Types of Hair Brushes

To choose your hairbrush, you must consider yourhair type and length, so for a wig brush, you must also consider its hair type.

Here are descriptions of detangling hairbrushes, wooden brushes and combs, round brushes, paddle brushes, and spider brushes:

• Paddle brushes: Come in different shapes, ideal for straight and wavy, thick or fine hair. The longer your hair, the wider the brush should be.
• Round brushes / blow-drying brushes: These come in different diameters and are designed for blow-drying and adapt to all hair lengths (short hair: small diameter, long hair: large diameter).
• Spider brush: Ideal for fine hair to add volume and shine.
• Boar bristles: The best bristle brush for not damaging your hair fiber, for all hair types and ideal for dry and damaged hair.
• Wooden brushes: You can find all types of brushes and combs in wood. They are more sustainable, heavier, and sometimes last longer, and are very effective detangling brushes.
• Boar and nylon bristles: pins for all hair types (also fine hair), can also be used for dry and damaged hair.
• Nylon bristles / Synthetic brush (e.g., Tangle Teezer brush): Cheaper and can partially replace boar bristles, good brush for brittle hair.
• Metal picks: Not recommended,damages hair and scalp.

All our brushes are available in theHair Accessories section.

Brush or comb, which accessory for whom?

Combs are generally used to tease, add volume, create a part, make sections in the hair, or smooth down, or brush straight or wet hair.

So the difference between brushes and combs is that a comb is generally used for styling (with a few exceptions), while a brush is used forbrushing and detangling.

How to Clean a Hair Brush?

To take care of your brush, first always remove the hair from the brush after each use to keep it clean for as long as possible.

To wash it, you only need warm, but not boiling, water, baking soda or white vinegar. Put these in a container and let your brush soak overnight. Then rinse it and let it air dry.

Forwooden brushes, either soak only the non-wooden part of the brush or do it by hand by brushing your brush with a small toothbrush and the previous mixture, rinse and repeat until clean, then let it air dry.

Clean it about once every 2 weeks.
