How to brush your hair properly
This age-old beauty gesture has proven its effectiveness!
Our grandmothers were particularly interested in it.
We’ve all seen our grandmothers brush their hair with patience and care. If not our grandmothers, we can all picture those movie scenes where, at bedtime, the lady-in-waiting brushes the beautiful silky hair of the mistress of the house with the utmost care.
In the past, people did not wash their hair as often as they do today. So every night, they would meticulously brush their hair to remove hairspray and other residue.
This is just as important today. And yet it seems to be sidelined or, at best, sloppy.
By brushing your hair regularly, it becomes more beautiful, silkier, shinier and easier to manage. Why is this? As we’ve just seen: when you brush your hair, you close the cuticles, smooth it out and rid your locks of dirt and dead strands.
Brushing is to hair what removing make-up is to skin.
A hair-friendly approach
Brushing is important. But for it to be of real benefit to the hair, it must be performed under the right conditions.
Always start by brushing the ends. Then, in a spiral movement, gradually work your way up the lengths and then towards the roots.
Care should be taken not to touch the scalp too much with the brush, as this could damage it and stimulate the sebaceous glands that cause greasy roots.
Brushing your hair before applying a treatment will allow it to benefit optimally from its beneficial effects.
This process should not last less than one minute. We recommend repeating it morning and evening.
Which brush to use?
Ideally, it should be done with 2 brushes. With one brush in each hand, you can perform a circular "reel" technique.
