The Benefits of Brushing Hair — More Than Just a Beauty Routine

Brushing is the most-overlooked pillar of a good hair routine. Here's what it actually does.

Distributes natural oils

Brushing carries scalp oils down the strand, conditioning ends without added product.

Improves circulation

Gentle brushing stimulates the scalp and supports the environment for healthy growth.

Prevents tangles from becoming mats

Especially important for extension clients — daily brushing catches small tangles before they become painful mats.

The right brush

A boar-bristle brush for daily brushing. A loop brush for extension clients. Detangle from ends up, never from roots down.
