My hairdresser told me to skip nightly brushing, bad move
She said brushing 100 strokes was outdated and messing with my curls. I followed her advice for 3 weeks in Chicago and my hair turned into a matted mess. Tangles so bad I spent $45 on detangling spray and still lost chunks in the shower. Turns out she was thinking of fine straight hair, not my thick wavy texture. I went back to using a wide tooth comb every night and the knots stopped forming. Do other people get advice that sounds scientific but only works for one hair type? What do your stylists say about brushing routines?
