How often do you brush your hair?

[misty]

I brush my hair several times a day. It has curl, so gets knotty even when up in a bun. I haven't had a haircut for nearly two years (been growing it out), have no split ends at all.

I comb my hair after its been washed but that is the only time a comb comes near my hair. Curly hair and brushing does not go well

If I've straightened it, it's combed daily.

I've got super healthy hair which is brushed every day at least twice. It's several inches past my shoulders and my hair dresser can't believe how healthy it is after 2 kids. Brushing, wearing it up and straightening certainly hasn't ruined my hair but I personally think regular trims (I go every 5-6 weeks), good quality shampoo and condition and Moroccan Oil certainly help

I comb mine in the shower when I wash my hair - which is most days (as when I exercise it's all gross and sweaty), but I try to hold off and wash every 2nd day if I can....

I rarely brush my hair - mostly cause I am too lazy... I get out of bed and put it in a hair tie to put the shower cap on - have a shower, and usually don't remember to take it out of the hair tie...

always think I should do it more... but then....

does it really matter...?

I just combed mine in the shower for the second time in a week. 3 handfuls have come out. I think I am going bald!

You should NEVER. Comb your hair in the shower. It breaks easier! Or so I was told :P I used to and massive clumps came out. Now I use a paddle brush before I get in instead. And if you don't brush often don't fret if when you do you comb a lot of hair out this is normal and if you brushed regularly you wouldn't notice.

A hairdresser recommended that DD comb the conditioner through her hair in the shower with a wide tooth comb. Maybe it depends on who you talk to

I guess it does lol. I was told the opposite.

I was always told you're not supposed to brush wet hair, but combing with a wide tooth comb, gently is ok.
Not that I really pay attention, but every time I go to brush my wet hair, I always think that I really shouldn't, then do it anyway...

I was told to use a wide tooth comb if I want to put anything through my hair when it is wet because it's easier to stretch/break when it's wet but fingers are better.
Conditioner is mainly meant for the ends so you shouldn't need to comb it through.

Shampoo for roots scalp and it will clean the ends enough on the way out (thanks gravity) and conditioner for the ends.

There seems to be too many hair experts giving out conflicting advice. No wonder there's some messed up hair out there!

[Phteven]

My hair's not messed up

[~*familyof3*~]

I was told exactly what Zazou said. I brush mine every morning and i comb it before bed as i have to plait it or i wake up with nasty hair lol. I also comb mine with a wide tooth comb after i wash it.

If I don't brush my hair in the mornings when I get out of bed I scare the kids Get a bit of bed head going on!!

depends if im styling and going out.. if its just school drop off its gets the fingers through it and into pony tail or left down.

I do however comb through conditioner in the shower (every 2nd-3rd day)... i know its meant for the ends but I love the feel of smooth silky hair in the shower, its the only time I get it unless i blow dry and straighten as my hair is that mix between straight and curly and is just horrible wavy if left natural plus frizzy.
