Hairbrush question Printed From: HairBoutique.com Category: The HairTalk® Archives Forum Name: Hair Talk Archive Forum Description: All the old Hair Talk Messages...

(I formerly just combed it when it was wet, then used styling products and left it for the rest of the day.) I don't know what type of hairbrush I should be using. Some of the very soft bristled brushes don't seem to really penetrate my hair. I've also heard that brushing your hair 100 strokes a day can be damaging and actually end up breaking your hair. What is the truth? How much should I be brushing my hair each day?Jen Replies:
