Did you know that it is not advisable to leave your wet and dry hair to comb with the same comb?

The selection of brushes and combs below can help you make the right choice…

The best brush for wet hair

A kidney-shaped plastic brush is best for tangles in wet hair, but how you use the brush is very important. Comb your hair from the bottom up, from the tips to the roots, using short strokes. It's important not to pull on the hair, as this can damage it. Be patient. Some people also use these brushes on dry hair, but hair can become greasy more quickly because plastic bristles don't remove dust and excess oil.

The best brush for dry hair

A boar bristle brush delivers shiny hair by distributing the natural oils (which create the appearance of greasy hair) from the roots throughout the entire length of the hair. It harnesses the hair's natural moisture and provides a healthy shine. The boar bristles also remove dust and other impurities that accumulate on the scalp.

The right comb for “rough” hair

If your hair is really thick, making it a real challenge to comb, it's best to use a comb with widely spaced teeth. Again, it's important to comb your hair from the ends to the roots.

The brush for quickly drying your hair

This brush provides better ventilation when drying with a dryer and promises to cut drying time by almost half. It's suitable for both curly and straight hair.

The brush for creating volume in the hair

A good old round brush, which you probably already have at home, is still the best way to create volume while drying your hair. For an even better effect, try a round brush with a ceramic coating, which best transfers heat from the dryer to your hair, creating even more lasting and extra volume.

The best comb for toupees

The best solution is still a comb with narrow teeth. The results are even better when these teeth are surrounded by boar bristles. They increase volume and also reduce the risk of damage to the hair.
