How often should you brush your hair?
We recommend to brush your hair at least three times a day – morning, afternoon and evening. You should always avoid brushing your hair when wet to avoid unnecessary breakage, this is mainly due to the hair becoming extremely weak and fragile when damp.
Let’s dive into the three main reasons as to why hair brushing is so beneficial to your day to day hair care routine.
#3 Benefits of Hair Brushing
#1. Hair Brushing Helps Avoid Breakage by Removing Tangles
Brushing your hair with a detangling brush can really help prevent any potential long-lasting damage to the cortex of the hair. Tangles can cause your hair to break, weaken and snap off and an easy way to prevent this is to ensure that your hair is tangle free.
The best method of hair detangling is to brush your hair from the bottom and then slowly working your way up. This hair brushing method helps avoid unnecessary hair pulling and removes tangles a whole lot faster.

#2. Hair Brushing Helps to Skip Hair Washes
Instead of reaching for the shampoo, brush your hair from root to tip using a cruelty free boar bristle brush.
Boar brushes are amazing at collecting excess grease and dirt and it’s also a great way to distribute your scalp’s natural oils from root to tip, this helps condition your hair in the most natural way possible.
Frequent hair washing can really dry your hair out and it causes your scalp to produce more oils to replace lost ones. Brushing your hair on a daily basis will help you skip hair washes, remove excess grease whilst conditioning your hair strands at the same time.

#3. Hair Brushing Helps Boost Faster Hair Growth
Every time you are running the brush across your scalp, you are gently massaging and creating more blood flow towards the hair follicles which helps awaken those lazy roots and boost hair growth as a result.
A great way to further increase blood flow and experience faster hair growth is to flip your hair and head forward and brush your hair in a downward position. This method of hair brushing will further stimulate your hair follicles by allowing more blood to flow towards the roots. Nutrients will be absorbed at a much faster and efficient way, thus increasing hair growth.
