The Importance of Daily Brushing

Brushing your hair not only feels great (when there are no tangles!), but it is also a great way to moisturize your hair without any styling products.  The right brush for optimal moisturizing is a natural boar-bristle brush.  The boar bristles distribute your scalp’s natural oils from root to tip, helping to prevent your strands from drying out.  Although brushing your hair in the morning seems to be a given, brushing your hair with a natural boar-bristle brush in the evening is the best time, because the oils on your scalp have been building up through the day.

You can find boar bristle brushes at any store that sells styling tools, however investing a good quality brush will save you from having to re-buy the brush over and over.  I have found the Raincry brush line to be the best quality and the longest-lasting.  If you visit raincry.com, they have a boar-bristle paddle brush, and a line of boar-bristle round brushes.  Many stylists prefer to use this line, and they’re perfect for home use.

So remember: brush before bed, from root to tip, with a high-quality natural boar-bristle brush, and you WILL notice a difference!
