Crave Naturals Glide Thru Detangling Brush

Silky-smooth hair is shiny, glossy and healthy looking. However, often times you can end up with stubborn tangles in your hair, especially if it’s past a certain length. Tangles, knots and kinks can be painful and frustrating to remove, which is why it’s important to use a detangling brush for the job. This kind of hair brush is designed to help to remove tangles while minimizing hair breakage in the process.

After you shampoo and condition your hair, it is at its most delicate stage because it is wet. In order to detangle your hair gently at this time, it’s best to use a brush that has wide-spaced bristles. If you prefer to brush your hair when it’s dry, then you can opt for a brush that has bristles spaced closer together. However, you will likely get the best results with wider-spaced bristles.

In addition to how far apart the bristles are, you’ll also want to note whether they are natural or synthetic. Some detangling hair brush bristles are made from boar bristles, which help to redistribute the natural oils in your hair. It can be time-consuming to use a natural-bristle detangling brush, but you often see shiny, healthy hair as a result. However, synthetic-bristle detangling brushes are also a good choice. They are typically made from plastic or metal and have a rounded tip. These are effective for getting out knots, kinks and snags in your hair, in addition to giving you a scalp massage.

• The most common and effective detangling brush design is the paddle brush. It has a large oval or rectangular head where the bristles are spaced far apart. It also as a long handle that is easy to hold and maneuver. Opt for one that fits comfortably in your hand. An ergonomic design ensures you won’t get pain or cramps in your wrist or hand while using the brush.
• While straight bristles can help you detangle hair faster, bristles that have a rounded tip are more comfortable on the scalp. Plus, they don’t tend to rip out as much hair in the process. Opt for a detangling brush with flexible bristles with a rounded tip for the best results.
• The type of hair you have will also affect the kind of detangling brush you need. Curly hair tends to get more knotted and needs to be detangled more frequently than straight hair. Opting for a detangling brush with bristles that are spaced very far apart is a good choice for curly hair.
