Which Brushes and Care Practices Can Help Reduce Tangling and Frizz?
Recommended brushes:
- Loop Brush (Extension Brush)
- Wide-Tooth Comb
- Soft Paddle Brush
Avoid:
- Fine-Tooth Plastic Combs
- Standard Round Brushes
- Brushing forcefully from the roots
Best practices:
- Gently brush through the hair before washing.
- Keep your hair hanging straight down while washing.
- Use a sulfate-free shampoo.
- Apply conditioner after every wash.
- Use a hair mask 1–2 times per week.
- Apply a leave-in conditioner while the hair is partially dry.
- Before bed, loosely braid your hair or secure it in a low ponytail.
- Use a silk pillowcase to help reduce friction.
These habits are often more effective at preventing tangles than simply switching hair care products.
