Hair Brush Crush?

Can the right hair brush really leave your hair smooth and soft after your blow dry?  Maybe even leaving you with hair that looks better than what your beautician can produce?  Boy that would be something now wouldn't it?

Can the right brush really hold but yet not pull your hair?  Making for easy breezy styling that leaves you feeling good about your hair. 

Can the right hair brush leave you gushing, Love, love, just love this brush!  No, I didn't think so.  But it's possible thought, right?  All because the brush is designed not to tangle but instead glides through your hair while adding a level of fullness and shine like no other one can. 

I know.  Hair brushes. For most an afterthought or impulse purchase, right?  Not something you would think you can't live without.  Not something you would think would matter but as it turns out it does.  Especially since there is often a brush designed for the specific job, specific hair type, specific outcome.

Yes, that''s both a blessing and a curse.  You see our brush choices expand every year.  And with more choices, so does our confusion.  Expand that is.  Leaving us bewildered when it comes to the best brush for our hair, style and choice of styling tools. 

Tip: If you want silky smooth styling, dry your hair in sections taking care to point the nozzle of your dryer of choice towards the end of the shaft not your scalp. 

Then too, the right tool for the job can slash your styling time down to size.  Not only will it work better and faster, it can help your hair look better.  Can you say smoother?  Other it might give your locks a shine assist.  Plus is it too much to ask for something that leaves your mane healthy looking and vibrant. 

Besides the last thing you need is a brush that will hopelessly snag your hair.  Then it's no longer how to make your hair look good, it's more how to keep from ripping a handful of hair out while disengaging the ensnarled brush.  Which is certainly not the desired effect for all your trouble.  For real. 

Plus when it comes to brushes that work as you know size counts.  So you want to pick a round brush that's the right size for the outcome you are looking for.  A smaller barrel for tighter curls.  Bigger for lush, voluminous ones. 

Tip:  Okay I know you know this but it's worth repeating - and don't you dare doze off on me. Most stylists will recommend natural bristles.  Why?  Overall you will find they tend to be finer and offer greater flexibility.  They also tend to be more gloss-giving.  Yes, you're right. They can also cost far more than a hairbrush ought to. But if you can't spring for the real thing, boar, then look for a composite bristle that's combines real and nylon.  Not quite as good but still much better than plastic.

Finally one more thing.  Keep in mind that a little know-how goes a long way.  But it's the tools you use that can make the difference.  And using the right brush can spare you the agony of bad hair days.  You might not believe it but it's true. Yes finding the perfect brush for your strands can be challenging.  But it can be worth the trouble. Who would  guess a hairbrush could make such a difference!
