Q & A: Is it bad to brush or comb your natural hair?





NO it isn't bad to comb or brush your natural hair.


The negative affects of brushing and combing are when we do these things on dry hair. It is always BEST to brush and comb your hair while "WET".  When the hair is wet you are able to manipulate your curls and they become looser.

Brushing you hair can have its benefits: scalp stimulation, detangling (Denman brush), cleansing, helps spread out natural oils in hair, smoothing, styling
Combing: styling, scalp stimulation, detangling, cleansing

Yes over time brushing and combing can begin to loosen and straighten you curls.  Be gentle and delicate with your hair while doing either task.

Hope these tips help!
