I want to be like Rapunzel. Experts have named the main mistakes women make when combing

A hairdresser-stylist named Alexandra Edelberg often faces a problem - a woman wants to have braids, like Rapunzel's, spends a huge amount of money on expensive and fashionable care products, and the braid, which even remotely resembled the braids of a fairytale heroine, does not grow.

Errors were made when combing, I'm sure Alexandra. And most often women commit them unconsciously or under the guidance of delusions.

1. You only have one comb

You can live with a single comb. And she will cope with her “work” as a whole. However, it is better to have three - a flat and thin one for parting, a massage brush for drying and combing, and a round one for styling. In each of these situations, the risk of losing excess hair can be avoided by using the correct comb.

2. You don't have plastic combs because you think they are harmful

All natural, "eco" is now in vogue. And many seriously believe that a wooden comb will help them grow amazingly thick hair. And a flurry of criticism pours down on plastic combs, they say, they harm. But really they are completely harmless... Therefore, if such a comb is more comfortable for you, there is no reason to use an uncomfortable wooden one.

3. You try to choose the same combs as your hairdresser

This is very risky. With some models of combs, only specially trained people, including your master, can successfully cope. It is dangerous to use such houses on your own, without knowing the intricacies - you can quickly lose the lion's share of your hair.

4. You never brush wet hair because you believe it will hurt your hair.

This is a myth, experts say. The only truth here is that wet hair should be combed more carefully, delicately.In addition, there are detangler brushes specially for wet hair, they do an excellent job of detangling hair.

5. You need to sleep with your hair down, let them rest

This is a popular misconception among those with medium to long hair. The next morning you have to unravel the tangles that formed overnight. In order not to expose the hair to such a risk once again, experts recommend gather your hair for the night in a light, loose bun or braid it into a loose braid.

6. You are confident that long brushing strengthens the hair and stimulates growth

This has nothing to do with the truth. Hair growth is not affected by the speed of combing or the time of this process. Moreover, brushing for too long is more traumatic for the head, it can lead to unnecessary hair loss.

7... Are you sure you need to brush less frequently to prevent hair loss

Regular brushing not only gives you a decent and tidy appearance, but also massage your scalp, which is beneficial in moderation.

Experts also refer to the recommendations important for the growth and health of hair the requirement not to change the comb too often, take care of it and clean it from hair after each use. And hardly anyone needs to be told that one comb can only have one user.
