How to choose the right brush for your hair
Normal plastic combs are not very gentle to hair because of its sharp edges, which acts like "knives". Split hair is often associated with low quality plastic combs.

Wooden combs are anti-static and therefore one can easily comb their hair without entangling it. Too much static can hurt the hair profile and make it rougher and brittle.

Moreover, the main idea of using a comb/brush is to distribute the natural oils evenly across the scalp from root to the end. Thus the right kind of brush for your hair is the one that reaches your scalp smoothly detangling one's hair from root to the tip and provide a natural shine.

TYPES OF HAIR BRUSHES 

1. Round Brush: The big round brushes offer smoothing and volumizing benefits for thick, moderately straight and long hair. These brushes are generally used to create soft waves on most hair types

2. Paddle Brush: Large, flat and wide, paddle brushes are versatile and a must have. This brush is great for detangling hair strands and keeping hair frizz-free. This is a useful brush & can be used to smoothen the natural waves. This saves a lot of styling time by managing the hair from root to trip.

3. Vented Brush: A vent brush lets air pass through it. These are best for short hairstyles, as they speed up drying time and ensure that you don't over-dry short locks.

4. Cushion Brush: This category of brushes include the oval/round -shaped cushioned brush for simply brushing out hair. This is specifically for dry / slightly damaged hair which has a tendency of breakage. The cushion induced base provides an air cushion that's used exclusively for long hair. The bristles are aligned in a cushion base which contracts anytime they meet resistance; hence, they prevent long hair from being stretched, split, or broken.

5. Wide Tooth Comb: Wide-Tooth Comb is a comb with the teeth far apart that detangles your hair, can also be used when washing your hair to distribute conditioner and shampoo. Best used to untangle knots within your hair. Works with all hair types.

6. Normal Comb: Normal Comb; just your normal every-day comb that you can get in varying sizes. Good for smoothing your hair out and making it look sleeker.
