I remember when I was younger, my mum telling me to brush my hair 100 times. I don’t think I made it to 100 but I certainly did used to brush it a lot more than I do now.
Tonight I was googling I wanted to research why it is beneficial.
Makes sense x
Hair health and shine. “Sebaceous glands located in your hair follicles produce natural oils that help lubricate your scalp,” he says. “When you brush your hair properly, it helps distribute these natural, healthy oils, from the roots of your hairs to the ends, giving them a natural shine.”
Scalp stimulation. Brushing your hair gently is like a mini massage that stimulates your scalp, which, according to De Marco, encourages blood flow and hair growth.
Loose hair removal. It’s normal to shed between 50 and 100 strands of hair a day, so when you brush your hair daily, you help remove loose hair, De Marco explains.
