You remember to wash your hair but usually forget about the hairbrush. Now it’s time to learn how the pros do it.
You Will Need
- A comb
- Your hairbrush
- A toothbrush
- A bowl of warm, soapy water
- A bowl of cool, clean water
- A hand towel
Step 1: Remove loose hair
Use a comb to remove loose hair from the hairbrush by running the teeth of the comb outward from the pad of the brush, lifting the hair upward.
Step 2: Dip toothbrush in soapy water
Dip the toothbrush in warm, soapy water; then use it to gently scrub the bristles and hairbrush pad.
If you have a plastic brush, soak it in a mixture of warm water and 2 tablespoons of baking soda for one hour.
Step 3: Rinse hairbrush
Rinse the hairbrush in the bowl of clean water to wash away any soapy residue.
Step 4: Shake your hairbrush
Shake the excess water from the hairbrush.
Cleaning your hairbrush on a regular basis will keep it in good shape and make it last longer.
Step 5: Let it air dry
Place your clean hairbrush on a hand towel to dry.
On average, we lose between 40 and100 strands of hair each day.
