How To Use Different Brushes To Achieve Different Looks

Choosing the right brush for your hair type and the look you are trying to achieve is important. Although many people would never dream of buying cheap makeup, sometimes they are content to use any old hairbrush, not considering its purpose or the type of bristles it contains. Well here at FHI Heat, we know that your brush matters, and we always want to set you up to look and feel your best. By using the right hair brush for the job and your hair type, you are setting yourself up to have shiny, luxurious, more manageable hair.

Why your Brush Matters

Although the lore of brushing your hair for 100 strokes each night before bed is long gone, there are definitely health benefits associated with using the right hair brush. In addition to making you look good and take pride in your appearance, the right hair brush will distribute your hair’s natural oils to your entire head of hair, keeping your hair shiny, vibrant, and healthy. If you have very fine or soft hair, match this with a brush that is made of extra-soft boar’s head bristles that will go easy on your scalp. The stiff, but delicate, bristles will detangle (but not damage) your hair. On the other hand, if your hair is thick or coarse, a combination of boar’s head bristles and nylon will help to work its way through your thickness, leaving it more manageable and polished.

The Perfect Blowout Brush

If you are looking for the perfect blow out, look no further than the Blow Out Ceramic Boar Bristle Brush, which is great for hair that is medium to thick. It can be used whether your locks are straight or curly. It’s coated nylon and boar bristles glide easily through your hair as you style. The ceramic barrel adds up to more consistent styling, and the nylon and boar bristles distribute your hair’s natural oils evenly through your hair, giving your hair a luxurious shine. The long weighted handle also helps you with balance and protects your wrist as you blow dry. Choose from 1’, 1.5’, or 13/4’ depending on the length  of your hair, and the type of curl you are trying to create. The smaller brush creates a tighter curl and the larger one creates more wavy looks.

Best Detangling Brush

The UNbrush Detangling Hair Brush works with any hair type. Detangling is the name of the game. Brushing wet hair can be challenging and damaging when done incorrectly. The UNbrush gently untangles without breaking the strand. With thinner hair, a proper wet brush is paramount as it’s more susceptible to damage.

This vented brush works equally well on wet or dry hair, leading your locks to a beautiful, smooth shine. The patented Soft-flex bristles will ensure that your hair does not experience tangling or pulling, which is what causes the breakage in the first place. One of the best things about the UNbrush is that it cuts your drying time by 48%, and gives you the look you are going for in half the time.
