Combs, brushes and scalp massage

A brush is not just a brush if you want to give your curls an optimal look

You may not think so much about it everyday, but it can actually be really hard for your curls to get brushed. Especially if you tend to brush with the wrong brush or a harsh technique. When you brush your hair, you pull out the hairs that have already fallen off. However, if you make small knots and the like, you risk pulling more hair out or breaking the hair strands.

If you want healthy and beautiful curls, then there is a lot to be gained by investing in the correct brush or comb for the hair.

Which brush should I use for my curls?

First of all, we must say that you actually should preferably not use a definite brush if you have curly hair. If you use a traditional brush, you will spread the curls unnecessarily much, and this can make them look frizzy rather than gathering in natural, beautiful curls.

Therefore, a wide-toothed comb will usually be the best choice when you need to brush your hair. One wide-toothed comb with smooth, rounded and wide teeth is ideal because it both massages your scalp while it easily slides through a filtered, curly hair. But keep in mind that it is never a good idea to brush your curls while your hair is dry.

The most optimal is to wait until you need to wash your hair and then brush it while the hair is full of Conditioner. If you can not wait, be sure to moisturize your hair. Spray it if necessary with a lick leave-in-balm, before passing the comb through the hair. Here at CurlsForYou you will find just a classic wide-toothed comb that you can take with you everywhere. But you will also find ours shower comb, there is a specific shower comb for the bath. It has the same smooth, rounded and wide teeth as a regular comb, but a smart hook has been added to the end of the comb, which allows it to hang in your shower. Then you always have it at hand, exactly where you need it.

Afro comb that gives volume

Afro hair is a type of curl that is typically characterized by very small and defined curls that need a lot of moisture. In addition, this type of hair often has a large volume. It may sound super delicious, and this type of curl can also look immensely beautiful. But if you have afro hair, it can also seem almost impossible to style it because it is so unruly. Here an afrokam comes into the picture. This type of comb also has smooth, rounded and wide teeth, which gently massage the scalp and let you brush your filtered curls out without damaging the hair unnecessarily. However, it has a different design than the traditional comb, in that this comb is narrower, the teeth sit closer, and then it has a handle at the end of the teeth. This means that the comb is ideal for gaining more volume by leading it into the roots of the hair and gently lifting them from the scalp.

The wide-toothed comb is thus the best solution for many different types of curls. But the absolute best thing about our three combs (both the wide-toothed comb, shower comb and our afro comb) is that they are made of 90% PLA (ie bioplastic - also called corn plastic) and 10% wheat straw. This means that our combs are 100% biodegradable and very environmentally friendly. In addition, they are cheap and beautiful (we think). What are you waiting for? Hurry up to get your fingers in such a delicious case.

Scalp massage

Do you find that your scalp sometimes itches a lot? Or maybe you even have a tendency to dandruff on the scalp? It can happen to all of us and for many different reasons. Fortunately, most people can easily get rid of the itchy scalp again without the use of special shampoos or the like. First and foremost, however, we must just mention that if you sleep with wet hair, or you put it up often while it is wet, then the cause of the problem may lie here. So you should stop immediately.

Sometimes an itchy scalp can also be a sign that you need to start the blood circulation in the scalp. You can do this with the help of our Scalp massager. It is designed to massage the scalp during hair washing, stimulate the hair follicles and provide blood circulation to the scalp at the same time.

You can advantageously use our scalp massager to distribute your washing product in the hair. Here you get three functions in one brush: the washing product is distributed evenly, your scalp is stimulated, and you get effective removal of product residues as well as dirt and grime from your scalp. It is super-effective, as an itchy scalp can also be the result of old product residues or dirt that you do not get washed out properly. Additionally, you can use it to massage the scalp to increase its vitality. Use it while washing your hair, or with an oil treatment. You can also take a look at a slightly different type of Scalp Massager, which is good to use when the scalp needs to be pampered with a little massage or when oil needs to be distributed in the hair.

Denman brush: For you who do not have the patience for a comb

It can be time consuming to use a comb every time you need to brush hair, especially if you tend to have a lot of knots in your hair. A hairbrush is rarely the best choice for curly hair, but if you do not have the patience to use the comb, Denman's styling brush is in our opinion the best alternative.

The brush is known for its high quality and good performance, and is especially used in the hairdressing industry. It has only seven rows, which means it wears less on the hair than a traditional hairbrush. You can also remove every other row so that the brush has only four rows - then you have a perfect curly girl styling brush, which protects your hair and your curls.

Brush your curls gently: Tips for brushing your curls

To summarize all that you have just read, here is our best advice for the gentlest brushing of curls.

• Use a comb instead of a traditional hairbrush when brushing your curls. A comb is much milder at the hair and gives more defined curls as it does not spread the hair to the same extent.
• Always comb your hair when it is wet. Preferably while you have conditioner in your hair. This makes it easier to sort out, and thus also more gentle. At the same time you avoid mugs.
• Take good care of your hair when combing it. Start at the bottom of the tips and move slowly upwards. Then you avoid making extra knots in the hair. Although it takes longer, it is also by far the best for your hair.
