They’re All Wrong! The Super Common Myths Related To Combing You Shouldn’t Miss Knowing

Do you often find yourself wondering about how people can spread rumors about everything and anything? Well, they don’t even spare something as basic as combing! Haha! Forgive them, we live in a big world and people talk! Sometimes it can lead to myths and misconceptions which can become a full fledged trend or a part and parcel of life. Today we’re addressing one such topic which is wrapped in myths! Yes, combing! We've all heard them: advice passed down through generations, beauty tips from magazines, or snippets of wisdom from well-meaning friends. But how many of these myths about combing do actually hold any truth? Let's get into the tangled web of combing myths and uncover the real facts behind them.

Myth #1: The More You Comb, the Healthier Your Hair
Fact: Contrary to popular belief, excessive combing can actually be harmful to your hair. Over-combing can lead to breakage and damage, especially if done aggressively or with the wrong type of comb. Instead, aim to comb your hair gently and no more than 1-2 times a day. This is ample to detangle and distribute natural oils without risking damage.

Myth #2: Brushing 100 Strokes Before Bed Promotes Hair Growth
Fact: Sorry to burst this bubble, but there's no magic number of brush strokes that will make your hair grow faster. While brushing can stimulate the scalp and improve blood flow, excessive brushing can weaken hair strands and cause friction, leading to breakage. Opt for a few gentle strokes if you enjoy the ritual, but don't overdo it.

Myth #3: Combing Wet Hair Is A Bad Idea
Fact: This one is kind of half truth! Wet hair is more fragile, but that doesn't mean you should avoid combing altogether. Use a wide-toothed comb or a specialized detangling brush. And comb when your hair is 70% dry after having a hair wash. Waiting for hair to get completely dry might make detangling harder for you leading to more hair breakage. Start from the ends and work your way up to prevent pulling and breakage. The right tools and technique can make all the difference. You can check Deyga’s wooden comb range!

Myth #4: Combing Causes Split Ends
Fact: While combing can contribute to split ends if done improperly or aggressively, the primary culprits are usually excessive heat styling, chemical treatments, or rough handling. Use a wide-toothed comb and detangle gently to minimize breakage and split ends. Please don’t forget to use a nourishing hair serum before that!

Myth #5: Combing Balding Areas Stimulates Hair Growth
Fact: Unfortunately, combing won't magically regrow hair in balding areas. Hair loss is often related to genetics, hormonal factors, or medical conditions. Consider consulting a dermatologist for that.
