The irony is that bro is bald, but he is a hair guru.
😂
Because he has no time to do his own hair lol
coaches don't play
He can't help it if he has high testosterone. That's just genes.
I found it a bit amusing. Kinda like a tattoo artist with no tattoos. I did like the advice though
I'm a man with short hair who randomly found your videos and got addicted to how much there is to learn about hair. Now I'm using all this knowledge for my wife's benefit so thank you so much for these videos!
King
Yesss
The washing changed everything, didn't it? Obviously, it all has, but just that change in washing is massive
Wah
Where did your wife buy you from? I need to know 😂
Could you do a video on naturally curly or wavy styling from a perspective of a professional? I'd be really curious about how salons would incorporate these techniques for clients that would prefer non-heatstyling. Thank you for creating such valuable and informative content. 🎉
In the past I used to do Brazilians Blowouts in my wave hair... it's was perfect because my hair got it straight and shiny. However, when I decide to be a little more blonde that my natural hair, I had lots os problems... Brazilians Blowouts and lighten/brighten products don't go well together... So I decide to accept my waves. However, every morning it's a "mission impossible"... if I detangle my hair, it looks as if I been electrocuted... I don't know what to do
Yes. I have course wavy and curly combination hair so all these pin straight styles are not possible unless I use damaging heat.
Manes by Mel
@@isapardini sounds like you need a wet spray before brushing to minimize fluff
I was also going to recommend manes by Mel 🙂
Didn’t expect to be learning how to properly brush my hair on my 35th birthday, but here we are. I’ve gone so so long doing it wrong, and I have really long hair (almost to my butt), so I’m sure you can imagine how much of a pain tangles have been…
Excellent video, thank you!
I'm 20, and I have the same problem. My mom always told me that for my kind of hair combs are best for detangling because she read it somewhere and I struggled so long because I couldn't find out how I was supposed to detangle my hair with that and did it the slow way with my hands because even that worked better.
This should be taught in health classes in highschool
Happy late birthday
🎉
are we the same person? my 34th birthday is next week and I have super long hair almost down to the my butt too 😂

Ja, ok, es lohnt sich trotzdem das ganze Video anzuschauen, also ich verstehe es nicht, für was man das so time stample-n soll... Ist nutzlos.
So helpful! Thank you!! Would be great if Chris included topic times in all his videos 🙂
Naja, wenn man nochmal was sucht oder genauer anschauen will ists schon praktisch🙃
Thanks
will never forget when i was a teen getting my hair done at the salon with my mother when the ladies went through our hair with the wet brush.. we were both so astonished and immediately asked what it was!! i thought all the brushing struggle was necessary but all we needed was $6 at the sally’s next door. life changed
Yes!! A family friend had a similar experience and that's how I ended up getting a wet brush of my own! They are so nice. :D
wet brushes have literally saved my life i swear
I grew up without anyone to show me how to do my hair. I ended up doing weird crazy hair styles to just avoid actually dealing with it. Ive gone to so many hair dressers, friends who are stylists and I just felt lost.
Then I found this channel. LIFE ENHANCING ❤ Thank you!!!!
@@JustJ-Meoh poor, poor you! Hair is crucial to your life......
@@kbeetles Of course, it's not crucial to my life. It wasn't about garnering pity either. It was simply my experience.
Even though 7 other ppl could either relate or appreciate what was said, you seemingly took it as me wanting pity or sympathy when that's not the case and without knowing the struggles I've had regarding my hair that have contributed to me feeling self-conscious. I don't want my comment to be misconstrued in the same way it appears you took it/ understood it, so I'll delete it.
Hair types, genetics, medical conditions, medications, mental health-related conditions/disorders, and so on that contribute to the appearance of a person's hair (or even lack of) can all affect how someone views themselves and even how others view or treat them.
Perhaps I should have mentioned that with my hair already being fine and thin, it really impacted me when I began getting bald patches in my hair due to issues with my health and the medications I was on. I was already very self-conscious and depressed, but this affected me to the point that I no longer felt comfortable having others see me, and resulted in me isolating for years.
So, yeah... thanks for the comment. ❤️🩹
It's just hair
@kbeetles wow. Poor you you are so sad you had to make rude comments to strangers about hair.... hope you heal!
@deborahpellerito6117 .... sweety, it's not just hair... maybe to you, but you're just projecting your inability to see something from someone else's perspective. Hope you have a great day and get offline because clearly you need to find something better to do with your time
no long intro, no excessive talking, just straight to the point nice and fast. immediately subscribed :)
Haha that sounds like me. I clicked on the subscribe button in a heartbeat 💓
Everyone who works with hair should be required to watch this. So many times I've gone to get my hair cut and they try to detangle my long hair with a fine tooth comb! They start from the top and don't watch out for the ears and scratch them. I think the reason why so many hairdressers are bad at brushing hair is because their main customers are short haired people since they need haircuts more often. After many tries I've finally found a hairdresser who doesn't detangle long hair with a fine tooth comb or scratch my ears. I'm super loyal to her and don't go to anyone else.
That's terrible. I have short but super coily kinky curly 4c hair. Detangling with a fine tooth comb is a no-no for my hair type. Also I detangle my hair in 20 sections to make sure I don't miss any parts or scratch my ears or face!
@@syndiejo962 I think she means short as in 18 inches or less. Most women in the salon I go in London England, just have shoulder length or just below or above shoulder length hair. As soon as it aporoaches 20 inches, they cut off 2 inches or more. So that could be every 6 to 8 weeks, that most get a cut.
👏
@@marleyhill34 I also have questions- sis I need to know why you’re sectioning your hair in 20 sections if it’s short?? I also have the coiliest, kinkiest 4c hair, bra strap length and w/ like 80% shrinkage, and I only section my hair in fours. I’m so concerned for you.. 😩
@@creamycazz1 I have high-density and ultra-fine strands. As I have said before I do this so I do not miss any parts of my head or shed strands. Have a Good day.
I wouldn't detangle with a denman! Like you explained with the wet brush, you need flexible bristles when detangling. I recommend only using a denman for styling AFTER detangling. Or you can always scrunch your hair to return the curl after detangling with other brushes.
Manes by Mel is a great source for curlies out there!
I think you can also help return the curl if you use some water. Usually when I spray my hair with some water before brushing it comes back a little bit all on it's own. It's even better when your hair is really wet from the beginning because you washed it. Whenever I do that, the curl is brushed out, but comes back while it's drying. But I think that also depends on your hair a bit. If you actually have the kind of hair that goes crazy from a few drops of rain, it probably works, otherwise probably not.
I second this, Manes by Mel does great info for curly people!
Just by person experience alone, do not detangle with a Denman...
Nothing for my extreme static hair? 😢
@madprevost1143 if it is always static it is dry. Change your hair products to more moisturizing ones, do an oil treatment occasionally. While getting moisture back into your dry hair wooden and bone brushes will produce less static than plastic.
I’ve tried so many brushes and I ALWAYS go back to my black wet brush. There’s just nothing better 🤷🏼♀️ Great advice!
i use a wood tooth Tek brush from trav whites channel, i really should get a wet brush tho
I have fine hair so a wet brush is a must for me.
@@LCx829 Me too!
Wet brush all the way
@@LCx829 My Michele Mercier brush is perfect for fine hair and it works on both wet and dry hair :) it's the best brush I've ever owned.
I was never taught any of this, I had to work it out for myself. And people look at me like I'm daft when I recommend exactly what you've said. It always makes me question if I'm doing it wrong, but now I can feel confident when giving this advice
Your natural oils aren't a bad thing if you're not over producing it. Washing too often increases oil production, which we all know, but if you either naturally produce less, or have naturally dry hair even, brushing through natural oils can help building it up at the roots, and serves as a natural conditioner.
Having said that, not everyone can do this, so its good to just know your hair.
That's only true for some people. The rest of our body doesn't produce any less or more oil even when we wash our hands regularly. You produce what you produce. You will not change your oil production in most cases, so wash as often as necessary. Some people will just end up with nasty oily heads after trying to wash only once per week. Only those of heavy African descent have to worry about over washing. We can't "teach" our scalp to produce less oil. Those of us who exercise every day need regular washes or dry shampooing.
It's best to accept whatever we're born with. There's nothing wrong with being extra clean if it's necessary. I personally wash every 3-4 days, but I use dry shampoo almost every day except the day of washing. That's what works for me, and I have long shiny hair.
Well I have. For weeks, I stopped washing my hair every two days. I waited 5 days without washing it, though it was very un comfortable. Now, I have kept the same rhythm and my hair only starts getting oily after five days. No terrible smell either co sequently..
Singlehandedly giving me the best hair of my life ❤️
I agree! ❤
For real! Like totally new hair this is crayzayyy
Same! I did the whole thing were you wash your hair less often, use a leave in conditioner and oil on the tips, and it feels like someone else's hair, like it can't be mine... wow
The Same, He has shown me how to take care of my hair professionally. I am about to buy a ion blow dryer today. I have the Dyson Supersonic, but he stated that is a bad blow dryer that keeps the cuticles open.
My hair brush: my fingers
You must have straight hair 💀🤣
😂😂😂
Ive looked after horses manes and tails so detangle starting from the bottom. So naturally did the same with my own hair! Life gives lessons in different ways 😂
Same!
So you knew how to detangle horse manes from starting at bottom...😅
Now I know why my salon stylist start from bottom to detangle my hair during going for haircut but they never share tips.
@@nancydsouza1094 Yes, I did a level 1 BHS Horse Owners course and it was part of it!
Same! Seemed logical but almost nobody does it!
Detangling bottom to top is really key. But I instinctively start at the top breaking that habit took a while.
Can we get a follow up how to clean each of those brushes (and how often)?
Especially the brushes with boar bristles (which includes the mason pearson), I tend to get dustbunnies in them that I cant seem to remove even if I use a toothpick 😅
Yes! Would love to see a video on how to clean them
There is a little Item to buy which looks like a mini garden leaves Metall brush to Clean these.
Sorry don't remember the Name for it
The little mini rakes do remove the hair and lint but also take off the little balls at the end of the bristles and so I wouldn't personally recommend them for brushes that have them.
@@rebeccadakin3536 I hate brushes with the little balls so the metal rake works well with my brushes. I guess people could try using reusable straw cleaners or pipe cleaners for their brushes with balls on the bristles. I wash my brushes and combs once a week when i shampoo my hair.
he’s done a video on them, he uses a denture brush and dish soap after letting the brush sit in hot water for a few minutes. you can use a toothbrush, old mascara wand, or if you feel confident enough you can use your finger even or a pair of tweezers. he recommends cleaning it once every 1-4 weeks depending on how much product you use, how often you brush, and how much oil your scalp produces.
edit: i’ve seen some beauties asking for the link to the video, i believe this is the one i saw that gave me this info! ua-cam.com/video/bzTr8WOf1Kg/v-deo.html
I love how this man is literally BALD and he knows more about combs and brushes than hairstylists
He looks like gym teacher actually 😂
He is a hairstylist, though.
@@LadyJaggerX3 yeah I figured that out but I forgot to get rid of the “than hairstyles” part my bad
Regarding oval vs paddle wet brushes: the oval wet brushes are better for wavy hair, of if you don't want to get rid of ALL the waves, while paddle brushes are better for straight hair, being wider and flatter in the middle will give that little extra tension to help that. I've used both on my mostly-straight hair that I want to encourage to stay straight without heat tools or blow-drying because I'm lazy, and a paddle brush works best for me to achieve that. So if you want to preserve your most natural hair shape (or if you made waves) when detangling go oval, if you want to encourage straighter hair go paddle, that would be me advice 👍 Unless your hair in thicker/coarser, in that case round is probably better for you, less chance of hurting yourself or your hair with the smaller oval, unless unless it's super duper straight and strong, in which case the bigger paddle may be more convenient. Know thyself first ✨
Actually I have mixed hair (literally different hairs are either mild wave and fine or thick and curly) that very, very easily tangles and a paddle brush is just much nicer for detangling. The very painful pulling from an oval brush just can't be good.
I have fine, straight hair that I'd like to encourage body and volume without using a hair dryer.
I use small oval paddle brushes, always have. The wide flat brushes are just too big for my hair. I've got hip length, super fine straight hair and so the small ones often designed for handbags or kids are what I use. Though I really miss the ones that The Body Shop used to sell which had metal bristles instead of the plastic or bamboo ones I've had to use since. Since my hair is super duper fine, but also seems to like tangling if you stop looking at it (like cables, string or necklace chains just seem to tangle themselves when sat still) and the larger bristles don't get through my hair quite as easily. Not been able to find any sold with the metal bristles since. I would still be using it if the natural rubber of the pad bit hadn't denatured with age.
Thank u so much
Don't judge me, but... I own 2 Mason Pearson brushes. I have a regular sized vanity brush and a purse sized one. I love them! I don't use hair products or heat styling tools which ends up costing much more than the brushes.
I just ordered my first Mason Pearson brush a few days ago. It took 2 weeks of reading reviews and comparing "dupes" etc, but at almost 57, I decided I'd treat myself to a really nice brush. 😅
Life is so short ! 😉
I splurged on a Mason mini about 7 years ago. It is so gentle I'm my fine hair. Just hard to clean the lint pills on it.
@Susan Craigo good to know. I have fine hair too.
@@oceaneo4603 so very true!
I have had my mason Pearson junior since 1999. For my fine straight hair, there isn’t anything better. Enjoy!
I'm a guy and I've been growing my hair out for like 3 years now. It's past my shoulders. I've been using a detangling brush wrong this whole time, which explains a lot. My problem with getting horrible knots in my curly hair is what made me click this video. Thank you for making factual, simple videos, that aren't loaded with ads or aimed only towards women. I can watch these without feeling totally lost, or like I'm trying to join Rupaul's drag race 😂 Now I know if I just brush my hair properly and get a leave in conditioner and a better shampoo, I will be doing way better than before.
Perhaps, it is better to detangle with fingers and then comb with a preferably wide tooth comb carefully.
loved the video, but just an FYI for viewers with curly hair, most curls specialists actually don't recommend detangling with a denman brush. it's for styling. the Felicia leatherwood detangler, the wet brush or the ultimate detangler hairbrush from tangle teezer are better options
I have wavy hair and when I detangle with a Wet brush, I end up destroying my waves and have super frizzy hair. Is this user error or is it not good for detangling wavy hair?
Do you use the large version of the ultimate detangling brush from tangle teezer?
@@livingkiss That's just how textured hair behaves when being brushed.
Jesus loves you so much! There's healing from God coming towards the mouth/teeth area of a man
The Denman paddle brush broke off my (wavy thin) hair.
This seems to be mostly for straight hair. I use a wet style brush for everything. I have coily frizzy hair. Trust me, it does NOT knock out your curls. I've had to glue the pad of bristles back in. If my hair is dry, I follow up with a boar bristle brush. 3c-4a
Maybe a tutorial on how to clean brushes would be a good addition to this video considering your story with the woman who was using a dirty brush
Remove the hairs by hand, put them in a wash bag and throw it in the laundry mashine or wash it by hand. Dry it outside.
Your hair recommendations literally doubled the density of my (fine) hair over the last couple of years (from breakage). Thank you! 🙏 😊❤
I always used a wide toothed comb for detangling my wet hair until I started watching this channel. Now, I only use my Wet brush. I love my Tangle Teezer as a massaging brush for my scalp. It feels so lovely. Thanks for your advice!
Yeeesssss! The Tangle Teaser is the best for that!!
I think is funny how the guy with no hair knows more about hair than a lot of stylists
This is the first time I've heard you say anything about naturally curly hair! I would love more advice about how to style natural curls
I see a lot of naturally straight hair in these examples
I brought the wet brush based on your videos and i have never looked back. They're amazing!
I clicked on this video to get some helpful tips on what brush to use for my daughter's hair. So far the Wet brush is something I will be sure to get for her, and also the Denman brush. See she has a unique hairstyle where the top layer of hair on her head is naturally straight while her underlayer of hair is naturally curly/ wavy. I've been having trouble with brushing and causing breakage because it tangles so much that we've decided to braid it at night. I might even get her a bonnet to keep her hair safe while she sleeps.
Thank you for the info ❤
I was taught when I was a wee lass to always start at the bottom of my hair when brushing. I’ve always had boar brushes but since watching you, I now have a wet brush too. Phenomenal pair. My hair is so happy with the wet brush after washing 😊
Thank You for this , my hairdresser of 25 years has discouraged shampooing and promoted scalp massage ( good) but pushing the oil down the length of my hair to “nourish “ the ends, I have every brush and comb you discussed ( ❤my M&P) and am changing my shampoo routine today
Would love a video on which products to use and how get naturally curly hair to look great, not frizzy. Both air drying and blow drying would be great.
I don't know how many hairdressers I have been to that started from the top while trying to detagle it. Like every time. The most breakage in my hair has been caused by uneducated hairdressers not knowing about this. Why doesn't more hairdressers know about this?!! I have gone to at least 20 hairdressers in my life and I haven't sticked with a single one of them for this reason. Sometimes I actually took the brush out of their hand and asked to do it myself. Nowaday I have lost my faith in hairdressers, I actually have learned how to cut it myself, but watching your video actually gives me hope that there are some well-educated hairdressers with this kind of knowledge. It's a shame I never found one where I live. Love your videos. Never thought a bald guy would give the greatest women hairtips. Great job!
So grateful that I stumbled upon your channel. I’m 25 and have been through so many hair phases as it regards to trying to achieve super clean, ultra healthy hair. Tried lots of DIY, all-natural treatments and all that jazz which ultimately lead to nothing. I thought I was better off using plain and simple homemade shampoos, conditioners, hair masks, and oils but decided to put my trust in some profession products. Today, after waiting at the door for my packages to come in, I’ve finally accumulated all the primary products you recommend for fine hair-redkens volumizing injection shampoo and condition, purology leave in conditioner, blow out heat protectant, olaplex oil, etc. After following all your instructions to a T, from how to apply the shampoo to how to blow dry, I’m so happy to say that, after a single wash, my hair has never once felt this clean and soft and manageable. It smells amazing and I’m having to force myself not to run my fingers through it constantly. Never been able to do that since my hairs is very long, very fine, and will tangle at the slightest touch. Can’t wait to see how long this lasts. That will be the true test as my hair is typically so oily less than 24 hours after washing it that the US is trying to invade my scalp. My hopes are high, however, and I’ve stocked up on dry shampoo so looking forward to not having to wash my hair every day.
Don't leave us hanging. How did it last??
Love your ambition! I also tried every remedy that is out there - only to come back with no results. I'm going through a similar hair situation. I used to have very thick and long hair going to my waist. I ended up losing my thick hair due to extreme situations of life causing me to stress tremendously and end up with digestive issues, lacking nutrition for healthy growth. As a result my hair continues to shed constantly to the point it's very thin and barely what it used to be 💔 I've started binging his videos for a whole week and taken the steps to get back my healthy thick hair ❤ would love to connect and encourage each other through this process! 🙂
@@rdb4996 the results have turned out to be sooooo worth it. I’ve never been able to run my fingers through my hair as it’s very long, very fine, and prone to tangles like no other hair texture. But after using all the recommended products and following every step to a T, I’m able to do just that. Additionally, my two little bottles of redkins shampoo and conditioner will have lasted me about 4 or 5 months by the time they run out and I’m not even close to
I've had fine hair my whole life. I'm now a mature woman and your videos are very very helpful. Thank you so much.
I have a Lange blow dryer brush and it’s wonderful! I’m disabled and it was so hard for me to hold a blow dryer and brush for a blow out. I’d definitely agree that the blow dryer brush is a lifesaver! I had a Revlon one that toasted my hair, but the Lange one is much kinder lol
Blow drying is the best way to dry up hair!! Stylists use super-powerful tools, too in order to get your style finished as fast as possible and dry it out in the process.
I have a blow dryer round brush and it’s a GAME CHANGER. It usually cuts my dry time in half and it’s so much smoother and shinier than when I use a normal blow drier. Especially as I’ve shortened my hair.
Man, you saved my hiplength hair! I was so sceptical when I saw your videos because often people just want to sell something. You are different, your tips really helped my hair. I have never had such good hair as I have now, after 5 months of following a routine you suggested!
So I am smitten and will do whatever you recommend!
Hip length?! Damn. That’s impressive 👌😂
Could you please tell me what routine you follow? My hair is knee length, not even lying. I really need help to make it look good as it did before. So please reply
@@abeer7555
Watch his videos, he has many '3 products ' or 'this routine will change your hair' videos and choose the one you like best. Here is what I do after watching these:
1. If I can, I only wash my scalp once a week. No dry shampoo.
2. Hairmask (you can even use a DIY? I use the extraordinary oil mask from Loreal.
3. Arganoil for the ends, just one drop every morning. Brush the oily ends with a separate brush to avoid oily looking hair in general.
4. Leave in conditioner, small amount everyday.
I have done this for roughly half a year now and my hair looks shiny and doesnt tangle up as easily as it did before.
If you can afford it, use olaplex no.3 every once in a while. I havent done it in a while and it's still fine.
(just some info, I have straight 'normal' caucasian hair. I don't know how that works for other hairtypes)
#3 is interesting to me bc I have 2 sets of combs and hair brushes. I consider/ call 1 set my "dirty" hair brushes bc I use them when I have product in and/or my hair is on the oily side, and the other set my "clean" ones for when I just finished washing my hair or have little to no product or oil in it.
I figured I was just odd bc ppl would say I'm "weird" or over-complicate things. Turns out, my reasoning behind it made sense all along.
I'm also a hip length girlie!!! I'll have to check out his hair routine!
I can’t say enough about how grateful I am you make videos like this. I’ve been looking for educational/ helpful hair UA-cam channels for like 2 years now. I know nothing about hair. Thank you so much for making these videos!!’
I *LOVE * your videos and always share them with my friends. Very educational AND you've taught this ole gal a few new tricks! But especially thus video, thank you SO MUCH for touching base with naturally curly hair. That's the one area I wished you spoke more on. Course. I know your specialty is blow outs. DUH! But you're so good at explaining, I just wished more could be tossed in for us curly gals.
Wait, what about wooden ones??😭
Not sure what you're talking about. I've used tangle teezer for years. On my thin hair and on my niece who has thick hair. Works amazing. Even on wet hair. Edit: another niece of mine with curly thick hair uses it too.
He knows what he says, if you don't understand it's your problem.
He said tangle teezer works, but not so well. Try a wet brush and see the difference 😅
He did say that if you have really fine hair tangle teezer can be enough.
These videos are so informative (and pretty fun to watch, too). Even though I'm limited in the kinds of products I can use, for health reasons, at least I can use the correct brushes and brushing methods. Just need to get my sister to do the same, because despite being taught the brush-from-the-bottom-up method as a child, she insists on starting from the top and literally ripping down to the bottom. It is so painful to watch. I'm honestly surprised she has any hair left lol.
Anyway, I appreciate these videos!
For those who had curly, thick or wavy hair, the deman brush is not the best for detangle, for me the best is the octopus brush. The demman is my best for stylish when you want fine curls ❤
That octopus brush is as harsh as a denmen for detangling.😬
@@cfoster6804 I use a tangle teaser for my curly hair.
I would have never believed that an $8 Wet Brush would make such a dramatic improvement to my hair! The texture is so much better! I just figured my hair had lost it's youthful lustre. I'm 62 and I thought I would need expensive and/or time-consuming treatments to restore the smooth, soft silky texture. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Try it ladies! And men!
"A wet brush will knock all your curls out and get it straight, you don’t want that." I WANT THAT 😂
My mum had a Mason Pearson for over 40 years, I bought the cheap knock offs and they didn't last. I lashed out a couple of years ago and got myself a Mason Pearson and I don't regret it at all, I have a wet brush and I love it, but the Mason Pearson is just so much better at getting the fluff and crap out of your hair. I honestly think the MP is worth it if you look after your stuff, I plan on keeping this brush for decades, so the cost is worth it IMO
I've always loved to blow dry with a paddle brush! It gives me this smooth, but messy texture that I absolutely *adore*! I've tried to replicate the same aesthetic with a round brush and it just doesn't come out right. Too smooth and too 'perfect'. My paddle brush will have to be prised out of my cold and lifeless fingers with a crowbar LOL
Lot of people love the paddle brush to blowdry and detangle. Me: I only diffuse my culs if I have to and I detangle with a comb (oops) and a detangling brush. (oops)
I am a qualified hairdresser, finished college in 2009 and you sir are teaching me more than the curriculum! Thanks for this, I'll spread the word around.
Great video Chris! Thank you. Using the wet brush is better than using a wide toothed comb on my relaxed hair!!
Great video! Sensible reasoning for each technique instead of advertising products like so many hair specialists do.
The fact that any plastic brush bends to my hair 😃
Can you please make a video on how to make your curly hair straight naturally I would appreciate thank you
Biggest brush advice I would have is switching to straight pins on any paddle style brush you use. Most paddles on market have those balls on the tips of the pins which are notorious hair- snaggers. A catch here, a catch there, it adds up. Former Rapunzel here who had thigh length hair. And yes always start at bottom 👍🏻
Hi, would yoy please, please do series on curly hair? You mentioned in one of the videos it's a whole other universe and I agree with that as someone with naturally curly/wavy hair!
You know what would be cool...a hairbrush quiz! One that would recommend the type of hairbrush that I would need based on my hair goals. I have a Wet-type detangler, but I have wavy hair that forms ringlets when I have long layers and I let my hair air dry...and now I'm wondering if a Denman brush would be appropriate for me, and how would I use it?
Great idea, I have S wave hair and ringlets often show up after washing, would live a recommendation on which brush would help keep my curls looking great all day.
I now know I'm brushing my hair the wrong way, I usually just grab whatever is closest in my brush drawer, yes I said brush drawer, apparently I have to many?! 😂
If you do go with a Denman brush - if your hair is finer or wavy, you might want to remove some rows from it! The Denman brush is also a styling brush, so it's best you detangle it first before going in with it. Usually for waves, you stick to 4 rows, though some wavies have said that it works with more rows so your experience may be different!
Bro! You are the bomb!!
Truly helpful, humorous, and super chill 🙌
heyy chrisss!! love your videoss!! :) by any chance could you do a video on leslie's natural day-to-day curl routine/products!!! it would be nice to see what she uses for when her hair is just let curly! and advices for the day 2 etc hair
Everything you’ve said not to do my hair stylist did to my hair which is why I’m on UA-cam looking for ways to fix the damage. Ironically, most things you said to do I was doing at home myself when I did my own hair and that’s when it flourished and grew before my stylist hacked it off like Edward scissor hands. Thank you for the tips and reassurance that my hair damage can be resolved
I’ve always been told to brush my hair starting from the top when it comes to detangling but I always found it easier and less stressful to start from the bottom. I still get told to start from the top from my family members but I don’t care, it worked for me and I’m glad I was right but if starting from the top works for them then that’s great. Just wish they didn’t make me feel stupid for doing it that way 😂😂
I absolutely LOVE my wet brush. I got mine at Sephora, it's made of wood and has a mermaid embossed on top. She's so pretty. Every since I got it, it's all I use. I can't stand hearing even a single strand of hair "snap" or break from brushing. My wet brush doesn't do that. It saved my hair
Man I totally disagree with 7:51, dragging the oils down with a boar and nylon bristle brush has made my hair so much better because my ends are getting some oil and my formerly greasy scalp is having oil taken away. I need to wash less often now.
As a man with wonderful hair genetics, I've been trying nearly every kind of brush/comb I could find for handling my thick/wavy hair and little did I know the god damn $10 wet brush is this guys recommendation... we appreciate the video man 🤝🏻
I’m so glad I watched this video. I was thinking about buying a wide toothed comb to detangle my hair 😂 I’ll just stick to my wet brush. Everything in this video was so informative so thank you! 😊❤
I got a mason Pearson brush from my mother at the age of 13. Still loving and using it every day. And I’m convinced I will love and use it for the next 50 years 😃
So the reason I ended up getting a mason Pearson was cause the wet brush I have was getting annoying to clean-I like the cleaning brush the mason comes with lol
I use a silicone lint brush and liquid soap to clean my Wet-type brush (Conair).
Get both wet, add soap to the lint brush, scrub the hair brush to dissolve the hair oils, rinse both, then scrub again to scrub any hair and little bits of lint. Best to do it over a sink. It takes two minutes, if you do it frequently. I do it after I have brushed my hair for the last time before a shampoo.
I knew most of them, but the one that shocked me was about the wide-tooth comb. Since I was a little girl, I’ve seen my mom use it to detangle her hair, and she gave it to me to detangle mine. I used it for a few years, then I found the Wet Brush (a different brand), and I loved how it felt, so I only used that. But it broke, so I switched to a regular one recently. After watching this video, I'm gonna get a new one!
My mom brushed my hair for me when I was under 13. I HATED it. She always used the wet brush wrong. She would start at the top and yank to the bottom really hard and fast. It scraped my scalp and pulled my hair and ripped some out. I was always in tears from pain and would be scared to have my hair brushed. When I started brushing my own hair, I started at the bottom and worked my way up slowly. If I found a knot, I would hold that section of hair and brush out the knot. My mom said I was being a baby and my hair won't be thick and lush if I'm so gentle about it. I didn't care, I just didn't want to be in pain every morning and night. I have very wavy hair that sometimes forms tubes.....it can knit pretty easily unfortunately. It only takes 30seconds for my hair to form a knot again 🥲.
Join the club . My hair is in a two-section twist or braid. I don't have to go through (very easily) tangled hair, AND frizzies.
"My mom said I was being a baby and my hair won't be thick and lush if I'm so gentle about it."
same!! my mom acted as if i was being spoiled and bratty if i didnt want my hair ripped out. now she's always going on about how she wishes she had hair as long as mine, and i never let her touch it anymore.
why did moms do this LOL.
SAME!!! Her hair’s SUPER thin so it works for HER but my hair’s been thicker than hers since I was like four or five years
Thank you!! So refreshing to see someone NOT recommend the Mason Pearson brush...common sense is a gift.
They should teach this in school. Instead of trigonometry 😂
😂Definitely more useful in life
I learned so much from you and I’ve been doing this job forever. Thank you so much. Keep them coming.
Love your advice. I already do a lot of this. I do comb wet hair, but I very little tangling issues and I comb bottom up and gently! I love my Revlon curling brush. I have the exact one he showed in video. I straighten very infrequently, but it's great for that when I want to. I mostly wear natural curls, so I want to try Denman brush.
today i learned i need a denman. my hairs not all that curly, but its definitely more than wavy and i wanna give it every chance it can to stay that way
1. wet brush
2. boar brush
3. ceramic round brush - best for blow drying and shine
4. dryer brushes
5. Denman brushes - for natural curls
6. brush before straightening with normal brush
For us girlies with bangs the rat tail combs are also awesome for sectioning and brushing your bangs into place for air drying and trimming them! ❤
I was checking out what he thought about the tangle teezer. I was thinking about getting the ultimate detangler kind to brush style my curls but he just mentioned the denman brush for curly hair. I just wanted to know which is better.
UPDATE: I got the Tangle Teezer and love it for detangling and brush styling! It does a great job!
I use the SHASH boar bristle brush that is made in Germany. It is pretty much the same as a Mason Pearson brush. I use it all the time and I love it!!
Thank you, thank you!!!!! Been looking for a German made boar bristle brush; my mom gave me a German made boar bristle brush when I was 13yo. I STILL have brush, and I'll be 69yo !!!!
Wow this was great! I'll admit I was one of those people guilty of thinking I was *supposed to* brush all the way to the scalp and redistribute the oil through my hair. The idea of not doing that blows my mind. 😂 Question though, what about after using dry shampoo on my oily scalp? Should I not brush that out either? I know the trick with using your fingertips to distribute it but what about after?
I actually completely disagree with him on this. I think that brushing the scalp redistributes the oil more evenly. You have to train your hair to not wash it every day and I think brushing it this way helps a lot.
I use a dry shampoo on non-wash days. I part my hair, spray the section let it set for a second, then from the crown I sort of massage downward toward my face, this way the powder actually gets on my scalp to soak up the oils. I usually only need to do a center part, then one on each side, this may not be correct so I would just experiment to see what you prefer to do.
I think the wet brush makes hair shiny could be explained by most of the hair is in the same relative angle to each other, making the reflection of light more uniform thus being seen as shiny. Dude you made a video about brushes super interesting to a guy that loves science, props!
Hiya Chris! Your videos are always a highlight. Thank you! I have wavy hair and am laying low on heat to help repair it from damage. I still have frizz despite using Pureology’s leave in conditioner and Olaplex hair oil. Do you think the Denman brush will help for air drying? Thank you in advance and have a blessed week ahead!
Try the Redken Rebel tame blow dry cream. it's the only thing that de-frizzes my medium frizzy hair (you only need a small blob on long hair)
@@twoleftfeet9626 Thank you. Does it work for air drying, or is it activated when heat is used?
@@lisettecampbell2138 I don't know? I know it has built in heat protectant. I use it when blow drying. Give it a try and find out?
@@lisettecampbell2138 Frizz is your hair reaching out for moisture. And is often the nature, of wavy type 2, curly type 3 and coily type 4 hair. Ways to stop frizz: 1. deep condition with a heavy cream mask ( do not put the mask on your roots) weekly for 20-30 minutes and a hot towel. 2. Wrap your hair in a silk or satin scarf every night to stop it drying out and to keep it smooth and by laying the hairs down. 3. Only use a sulfate/clarifying/chelating shampoo every 4-6 weeks. 4. Spray the frizz with the leave-in conditioner 1-3 times daily. 5. Wrap your hair in a scarf away from the sun, wind, cold, air conditioning, pollution, pollen or high outdoor temperatures. Or you could just be like me and embrace the Afro to volumize my fine strands. Lol!
@@marleyhill34 Lol, to the last part. Thank you for these great tips! Need to get a hair mask for sure. That is missing from my routine.

I find your videos informative but as a hair product and hair tool junkie, I have to disagree with the blow dry brush. I bought the Revlon years ago when it came out. It seems like the easy solution and depending on how much hair you have, you might be able to get some volume but it causes a LOT of heat damage which leads to a lot of breakage. Heat protector spray or cream is not a magical solution that will fix everything. The blow dry brush could be great for occasional use but not great for people with fine hair and certainly not for people who blow dry their hair 3-4 times weekly.
Agreed
Agree! I have super curly African American hair and it’s a dream come true for me. But i only blow dry / straighten my hair like every 6-8 weeks…i couldn’t imagine using that for everyday styling.
Agree I bought the Revlon years ago, yes it’s 🥵 & my hair is very fine & just below my chin in a bob. I can’t get any tension & hair is never smooth?
@@jgoldfarb3 I am no expert but I think you are better off with a medium round brush and a hairdryer ( invest in a good one with an AC motor). ☺️
@@nolabel1704 yes I have both & they do work better than the airbrush, Thank you
I have the Ariel hair. I fall asleep with wet hair, wake up and run my flat brush through my hair - which is down to my lower back, a few times and I’m done. It’s perfectly straight and ready for the day. My friends and family had tried to talk to me about different brushes, flat irons and hairdryers, but I never have a clue what they’re talking about.
Not a fan that you just ignored the wide tooth comb. You pretty much said not to use it and moved along. Completely alienated your curly audience. I only use a wide tooth comb while my hair is wet. If i dont have one i just use my fingers. If you can recommend a brush for curly hair then ill take it back.
He mentions a brush for curly hair at the end.
I'm not sure if you saw that or not. 14:01
I genuinely hope I find a husband like you. You are literally amazeballs. I loooove your channel and I love you
When you use a wide tooth comb, you can FEEL whether or not there is a tangle. He probably doesn’t know that since he doesn’t have hair 😂
Aww don't disrespect the Blowout Professor! He's so sweet AND incredibly skilled! He's just providing guidelines, it's up to the user to decide!
Nothing in this world is better than Acca Kappa extension brush. I have a fine curly hair, and I am tell you I TRY EVERYTHING, I really did, and finally the only hair brush that do not brake my hair is the Acca Kappa made in Itália extension brush or the professional 951.
The brush is very expensive but worth every penny. I am not a sponsored by them, I am just a consumer and believe me, it is amazing.
Fun fact: My older sister was really into doing her hair during a time when teased styles were popular, and (at least in our area) teasing was called "ratting." 😁
I wish I found you years ago. You're literally changing my life and I feel so beautiful with my hair now.
Blow dryer brushes are AMAZING
Can you guide us on brushes for frizzy hair? I really learned a lot from your video thank you 🙏
Please do more videos on natural curly har 💕
Guilty of brushing my hair wet with whatever brush is closest. Will prioritize the right brush for the right job. Great tips as usual!
Always learn something new when i listen to your videos
I'd love to see videos featuring natural grey hair care!
