Thick, Coarse Hair

For thick, coarse hair, choose a brush with sturdy bristles that can handle the density and texture. A paddle brush or a round brush with firm bristles works best.

“Consider the density and texture of your hair when choosing a hairbrush. For thick, coarse hair, you’ll need a brush with sturdier bristles, while fine, delicate hair requires a softer brush to prevent breakage.”

Fine, Delicate Hair

For fine, delicate hair, opt for a brush with soft, flexible bristles to prevent breakage and damage. A boar bristle brush or a gentle detangling brush is ideal.

Curly Hair

Curly hair benefits from a wide-tooth comb or a detangling brush that can gently work through tangles without disrupting the curl pattern.

Oily Hair

For oily hair, a boar bristle brush can help distribute the scalp’s natural oils more evenly, reducing the need for frequent washing.

Dry, Damaged Hair

For dry, damaged hair, choose a brush that minimizes breakage and adds moisture. Boar bristle brushes and detangling brushes are excellent choices.
