Don’t start at the scalp
Most people brush their hair after the shower, but what they don’t realize is that wet hair is especially vulnerable, making it that much more important to be gentle and to comb correctly. Starting at the scalp can lead to snarls, frizz (give these frizz-fighting secret weapons a try), and damage! For starters, brushes and combs are designed to be used on hair, not the scalp. Anabel Kingsley, trichologist at Philip Kingsley, cautions that they can scratch, cause irritation, and negatively impact scalp hair. Brushing from the scalp down is also likely to cause breakage, which can make hair look thin. (Follow these 8 rules if you have thin hair.) It actually places unnecessary traction on the hair and follicle, and your strands are likely to be stretched past their elastic limit. Next, take a moment to think about how much hair you’re trying to pass a comb through at one time. If you start combing from the top of your hair, you’re likely to break through snarls, rather than remove them. “This action also can gather tangles together, creating large knots and matted sections,” says Fernando Salas, creator of White Sands. Combing wrong isn’t the only snafu you might be making. These mistakes could be majorly sabotaging your mane.
