Don’t Mangle

Tangles

While your hair is still wet, use a

wide-tooth comb to detangle small

sections. Start with the ends first

and work your way up. If you hit a

rough spot, don’t yank! Gently work

the comb through your hair.

Do Use the

Right Tools

Some hair-care tools can damage

your hair and scalp. Choose a brush

with a rubber base and round-tipped

bristles. Never use a brush on wet

hair, which is weaker than dry hair—

the brush stretches the hair out and

can cause it to break. Use a wide-

tooth comb instead.

Don’t Share

Sharing is a good thing, except when

it comes to hair tools. Don’t borrow

combs and brushes from friends or

family members, and don’t lend

them yours. It isn’t stingy—it’s good

hygiene.

Don’t Overheat

Blow-dryers, straightening irons, and

curling irons can really dry out your

hair. If possible, let your hair dry

naturally. If you use a blow-dryer, use

the warm or cool setting. Don’t use

straightening irons and curling irons

every day—save them for special

occasions.
