Não há nada melhor do que ter o cabelo sempre arrumado. Para alguns de nós, isso significa usar uma tonelada de produtos diferentes e ferramentas de cabelo quentes que fazem com que pareça perfeitamente liso e brilhante. Mas tenho que te dizer uma coisa: depois que aprendi a usar uma escova de cerdas de javali, tudo mudou completamente!

Escovas de cerdas de javali são escovas com cerdas extra macias feitas de – bem – o cabelo de javali . O cabelo de javali é muito semelhante ao cabelo humano e contém muita proteína. A origem do cabelo significa que essas escovas não são adequadas para veganos, mas os javalis não são prejudicados de forma alguma no processo de obtenção do cabelo, então você não precisa se preocupar com isso!

Benefícios de uma escova de cerdas de javali

There is a very good reason why boar bristle brushes are so popular nowadays, and that is because they can provide you with a ton of benefits. For example, using this type of brush on your hair will make it smoother, shinier, cleaner, healthier, and softer. On top of that, the brush will promote new hair growth and will make the existing hair much stronger.

Thanks to the boar bristle brush, I was also able to eliminate hair frizz that had always bothered me so much. In the early days, I would spend hours fixing my hair only to make it weaker and lifeless. However, once I started using my boar bristle brush, my hair had no frizz at all, and the breakage was also brought to an all-time low.

I love my boar bristle brush for all of these reasons, and I bet that once you try it out, you will love it as well. So stick with me through this guide, learn more about the brush and how to use it, then go out and get one. Trust me, you will not regret it!

How to Use a Boar Bristle Brush

I know what you might be thinking – you have been brushing your hair practically your entire life, so what more is there to know about that process?

Using a boar bristle brush is not that different compared to using any other type of brush, but there are still a few specific things that you need to do to make your hair perfect. So here is a step-by-step guide that will tell you everything you need to do!

Step 1 – Dry and Detangle

Some brushes might be suitable for brushing wet hair, but that is certainly not the case with the boar bristle brush. If you try to use it on wet or damp hair, chances are that the brush will cause breakage, so you should avoid doing that.

After you wash your hair with a good shampoo, you should dry it thoroughly before using the brush. I would recommend detangling it with a wide-tooth comb before you go over it with the boar bristle brush.

You might notice that I did not mention any other products aside from the shampoo. That is because the boar bristle brush works best when the hair is not burdened by too many hair products. The products can clog the bristles, so you should avoid using them.

Step 2 – Section Your Hair

If your hair is longer or thicker, you should also consider dividing it into sections before you brush it. This will help you brush the hair more thoroughly without missing any spots. Once you do that, you can move on to the actual brushing.

Step 3 – Get Brushing with Your Boar Brush

I would recommend bending your head so that you can start by brushing the back of the hair. Using the boar bristle brush, brush the hair from the roots to the ends. By doing this, you will spread the natural oil from your roots to the rest of the hair, using it as a natural conditioner.

Moving from the back to the front of your hair, you should gently brush it through. You will notice that your hair will be completely frizz-less by the time you are done with it. However, if there happen to be some flyaways, you can always use a bit of setting spray to tame them.

When you are finished brushing, make sure that you remove all hair strands that might have gotten trapped between the bristles. Then, rinse it with some cool water, and dry it with a soft towel before you store it away.

Here’s a good demo video on the entire process.

 

TIP: If you have 4C hair cropped pretty close to the head, a boar bristle brush is a great tool for achieving those coveted 360 waves.
