Large round brush
Large round hairbrushes are little styling wonders and bring above all shape and volume in the hair. The handling is a bit difficult in the beginning, but with a little practice, you can manage the styling in no time when you get the right hairbrush and comb for your hair type.
Here’s a little tip: If you want to bring a lot of volume in your hair, pull the brush while blow-up away. For little volume, run the brushes down.

Small round brush
A small round brush must not be missing in any vanity case. Especially suitable for short hair. Women with fine hair should use round bristles with natural bristles. These protect and care for the hair at the same time when you pick the right hairbrush and comb for your hair type.

Skeleton brush
Especially good is the skeleton brush suitable for curly hair. The wide-spaced bristles allow the brush to slide through hairs without zipping and prevent them from appearing curly.
Curls Crest
Perfect for wet hair or curls. With its widely spaced tines, it slides through the hair without much resistance and gives the curls structure without destroying them.
Ion brushes
A little novelty in the beauty market are so-called ion brushes. After straightening iron and hair dryer, now the brushes are positively charged and prevent your hair standing on end.
Natural, nylon or mixed bristles?
Depending on the application, the choice of the right brush and bristles falls on another model. Nylon pins are better for unraveling the hair. Natural bristles care for and cleanse the hair of sebum and dust in a natural way. Wild boar bristles are particularly good, as they are very similar to human hair. When you make a purchase, make sure that the bristles in the bundles have different lengths, so you can get through the hair better.
Mixed bristles combine the advantages of both types of bristles and are the best choice for unmanageable and firm hair.
Maintenance
Brushes should be cleaned at least every two weeks and natural bristles should be washed with a mild shampoo to remove the sebum, dandruff and dirt particles from the brush.
