Well, hey there, and welcome to Straight from the Stylist Chair. This is a special QA series here on All About Hair. I'm your host, Denise Keilitz, and I'm here to answer the real questions clients ask in the salon so you can feel confident and love every visit. Welcome back to Straight From the Stylist Chair, where I help you solve everyday hair struggles. Today's question is what is the best brush for my hair type? Great question. Because frizz, breakage, and bad blowouts all have the same simple culprit. The wrong hairbrush. If you're like most people, you have a drawer full of random brushes, but don't know which one is actually right for your hair. Am I right? I know I have a drawer of brushes, and I always reach for the same brush. And I know what brushes to use, but um, and if you're at the at the store, at the drugstore, the brush aisle is totally overwhelming and it doesn't have any clear guidance on what to use for your hair because everybody's doing something different with their hair. So here's a little chi sheet, okay? Bore bristle brushes. These are those that have really tight together bristles, and it could be in a round round brush or it could be a paddle brush, but those are usually used for smoothing out and getting shine in the hair. So if you're looking for a blowout with the most smoothness and the shine, you want to use a bore bristle brush. You're gonna get a lot of tension using that, and it really does help to move the scalp oils all the way down the um strand of the hair. That's why. Oh, that's one reason. Uh a vented brush. We've seen these, these have been around for a long, long time. Uh these are for fast blow drying. It's when you want to direct your roots where, you know, up, over direct them. You want to use a vented brush. It'll really help to get the air from the blow dryer moving throughout your hair. A round brush is used for volume, and we've all seen that. A paddle brush is when you want a sleek and straight style. Think about bobs or just straight hair for that matter. You wouldn't want to put a round form into a bob because then you just have to um straighten it back out, right? So you use a paddle brush and you create that tension with the paddle brush and then a detangling brush. These are safe on wet hair. So all brushes have their own reason to use them. So if you're using the right brush, your styling will get easier and your hair will stay healthier and your results will look more polished. Hey, thanks for hanging out with me today. I hope today's chat helps you walk into your next appointment feeling totally confident.
