Brushing: a key step in your hair care routine 🗝

Contrary to popular belief, brushing does not cause hair loss. In fact, brushing your hair daily is essential for keeping it healthy and beautiful. It is recommended to brush your hair at least twice a day, morning and evening. Beyond its ecological and economical benefits, here are 3 reasons why brushing should be an essential part of your hair care routine.

3 good reasons to put brushing back at the heart of your hair routine:

#1 Brush to distribute sebum ✨

Sebum is a natural substance produced by the scalp. It is highly beneficial as it creates a protective barrier on the hair fiber, helping to seal the cuticle and prevent moisture loss. Brushing helps distribute sebum from the roots to the ends, naturally nourishing and hydrating your hair.

For truly effective brushing, it is important to use a brush made with boar bristles. These are composed of keratin, just like our hair. The micro-structure of the bristles helps spread sebum evenly along the hair length. Regular brushing is therefore key to maintaining healthy hair.

Brushing twice a day also helps prevent oily roots and dry ends.

#2 Brush to cleanse ⚡️

Throughout the day, dust, pollution, and moisture accumulate in your hair. Just as we cleanse our face and hands, it is important to cleanse our hair as well. A thorough brushing with a boar bristle brush helps remove impurities and dead skin without the need for daily washing. It also allows you to space out shampoos, which can weaken the hair when done too frequently.

However, technique matters: always start by detangling the ends and gradually work your way up to the roots to avoid breakage. A proper brushing session lasts about one minute and should be done at least twice a day.

It’s also a good idea to carry a small brush with you for quick touch-ups, keeping your hair clean and shiny anytime, anywhere.

#3 Brush to stimulate microcirculation and relax the scalp 💆🏼‍♀️

Brushing not only provides a relaxing effect but also stimulates scalp microcirculation. Using a pneumatic brush to massage the scalp is highly recommended. These brushes help relieve tension, reduce stress, and support healthy blood flow.

By boosting microcirculation, brushing promotes hair growth, making your hair stronger and more resilient.

As you can see, even before shampooing or using any treatment, it is essential to place this simple step—brushing—at the heart of your hair care routine.
