Top 5 Benefits of a Detangling Brush and Why You Need One

Hands up if you have woken up in the morning with your hair looking like a hot mess? Or stepped out of the shower with more knots than you'd care to mention? Yep! Us too. But not anymore. We have tried and tested five amazing benefits to turn your hair nightmare into a smooth, shiny daydream. You. Are. welcome!

First, Why Do You Need a Detangling Hairbrush?

• There are a wide variety of hair brushes out there that can help brush through tangled hair but using the right brush (aka a detangling brush) for stubborn knots and tangle-free hair is crucial if you wish to prevent hair damage. This is especially true if you have thick hair, curls or even hair extensions, although they can be used on any hair type.

• Tangled hair happens when the cuticles on your individual hair strands become damaged. Thus, your hair does not sit smooth, causing all the damaged ends to pile up ontop of each other creating a tough tangle mess and a lot of hair stress. Make the detangling process easy and opt for our ultimate detangler brush paired with the right hair products and you're good to go!

• A detangler brush is great for using on either wet hair or dry hair and makes the perfect shower companion when brushing through your conditioner. Simply brush generous amounts of conditioner through wet hair and massage your scalp gently with the bristles for a touch of self-care. A regular, gentle scalp massage can also help stimulate hair growth. Relax for five minutes then wash out and watch your tangle-free tresses flow!

Your hair will thank you later! A silk pillowcase also does wonders in preventing kinky hair and frizz.
