Comb-brushing
In the arsenal of every hairdresser there is a comb-brushing. It is a round brush with bristles. It is used to give a curvaceous shape to hair, beautiful bangs and wavy curls. The term "brushing" refers to the styling technique itself.
To create such a hairstyle, it is not at all necessary to seek help from a salon. It is enough to buy yourself such a comb and learn how to use it correctly.
How to create a hairstyle
For all lengths and initial volume, styling is done on clean, slightly damp hair.
- step 1. Create volume at the roots. To do this, you need to dry the hair at the roots, lifting individual strands with the help of brushing. You need to start from the back of the head, gradually moving to the face;
- Step 2. Straighten your hair. Comb them with a comb and pull them down, direct the blow dryer from the roots to the tips. This will close the scales and make the hair smooth and shiny;
- step 3. Curl curls. Choose a brush of the desired diameter, wrap each strand separately on the brush and dry it with a hair dryer.
A well-known stylist tells about the styling method using brushing:
The brush is selected individually. It is worth considering the following:
- hair volume;
- length;
- what size should the strands be;
- desired effect;
- how often it will be used.
To understand all this, consider what kind of brushes are and how they differ from each other.
What are
The most important difference is the diameter. Each brush has its own purpose. So, one can be used for twisting, a completely different one for straightening.
A small one is needed in order to evenly lay the bangs. Also, with its help, you can create strands or style short hair.
Medium comb is good for medium length fine hair. It will favorably add volume to the hair, and, at the same time, will be able to straighten the strands along the entire length, from roots to ends.
A large brush is essential for long, thick curls.
According to the type of hairs, brushings are:
- natural;
- nylon;
- metal;
- combined (partly nylon, partly natural fibers).
natural bristles less traumatic for the cuticle, do not damage the structure. They are used for straightening, as they cling well to the hairs, fixing them at the time of blow-drying.
Nylon bristles designed to add volume to medium length hair. The advantage is that they are easy to clean and disinfect.
Modern hairdressers practically do not use metal brushes, considering their use detrimental to the health of the hair.
For thin hair, you should choose a brush with soft bristles, for thick hair, a stiffer one is suitable.
Special attention should be paid to the handle. It should fit comfortably in your hand. Choose models with a rubberized handle so that the brush does not slip out of wet hands.
Thermal brushing
