According toTravel+Leisure, water weakens hair strands by filling them with moisture, making them more susceptible to breakage.
If you tear through your wet hair with hard bristles, it can lead to intense damage.
Instead, when brushing wet hair, try dampening your brush firsts or using wide-toothed comb.
These are much gentler on your strands and still detangle your tresses.
Also smart: Before you brush, add a leave-in conditioner treatment to help protect strands by loosening tangles.
Once your brushes are buildup-free, focus on combing through smaller sections at a time.
By brushing smaller sections, you reduce tension on your strands and lessen the impact of your movements.
This also protects from over-pulling of your roots as well (viaTravel+Leisure).
Lastly, avoid over-brushing.
By using these simple tips, you’ll see a huge difference in the health of your hair.
Try them out and notice higher levels of shine and strength.
