    I would recommend that you face the bristle down when drying that way the excess water can get out of the holes. Otherwise standing water could create mold, kind of like a child's bath toy.

      Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES from hell❗️
      *What is the Gospel?*
      The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
      Romans 10:9
      9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
      JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!

    I started washing my brushes regularly a few months ago and I have noticed a HUGE difference in how greasy my hair gets! Over the years I tried everything to make my hair less oily and washing my brushes has been the only thing to significantly decrease how oily my hair is. My hair feels so much more clean and healthy now, I was shocked at how big of a difference it was from before!

    When a brush got too dirty i used to throw it out, but last week i filled a container with warm water, put detergent on my brush, and used our ikea dish brush to go at it.

    I was just thinking about this the other day, gazing in dismay at my brushes and wondering if it was actually possible to get them properly clean. They always get this sort of...little circle of yuck around the base of each bristle and I have on occasion gone through and manually sort of plucked each one off ( by sort of grabbing it with my nails and pulling it up and over the bristle), but that kind of repetitive action can make me feel really nauseated, so i can't always face the idea of doing it, so the brush goes away somewhere out of sight to be forgotten.
    Now? Now I might give it another go. I just need a rake thingie and a cheap toothbrush...and some sort of soap-style product (sooo...just need to buy literally everything you mentioned, that's all).

    Great video! I learned from my mom some 50 years ago - she cleaned everybody’s hair tools on a regular basis, and most were beautiful woods with boar bristles. She used ammonia, but somehow managed to keep the wood parts out of the solution in a long glass dish. My family always had beautiful hair.
    I, on the other hand, have mostly plastic hair tools anymore. I typically use the tallest vessels I have, which are a 20-year-old enormous drink container and a vertical asparagus steamer. I start with a cheap rattail comb to remove the hair masses. After submerging in an ammonia solution for a few minutes, I vigorously roll each brush’s bristles against another’s to dislodge every ‘bit’ of buildup and remaining hair the rattail didn’t pick out. Nothing ever escapes that! Then I rinse them all under hot running water. I dry every brush bristles-down or on its brush end, never flat with bristles up.
    Until your video and a few others, I’d never heard of using baking soda! So I just tried it - half a box of (expired) baking soda, a splash of Dawn dishwashing detergent, and 3 quarts of boiling water. No noxious ammonia. The solution worked so well, I tossed all my goto hair accessories sans headbands (which I’d never cleaned before) in for good measure. All came out squeaky clean. FWIW, my post-cleaning solution didn’t look anywhere near the satisfying brown other YT-ers have seen.
    Too, don’t forget to clean your hairdryer’s inlets on a regular basis. Of course, you can’t use water for it, but it’s important to do it so your appliances’ motors don’t burn out. Cleaning the grills requires tweezers, picks, and time. But it really matters, not only re airflow but to prevent fire. Sadly, every hairdryer on the US market is imported anymore, and not a one is screened for UL-approved authenticity. I’ve actually met women whose hairdryers have gone up in flames when using, only to find the manufacturers are fly-by-night and the retailers blow their complaint off.

    I remove the hair from my brushes constantly, but it's filled with little white pompoms.
    I knew I had to Google it- the knowledge had to be out there somewhere- I just never got the motivation to actually do it. Awesome video, specially since I have one of those "fancy brushes." 😀 Don't know if Google would have included that info.

    Awesome video, I have never come across a hair brush cleaning tutorial before, really glad you made this. One tip I have is when the hair on your round brush is wound super tight, use a thread ripper (you can buy these in dollar stores or in fabric stores) to cut the hairs at the base along one side of the brush. This way you can remove the hair on a round brush in one "sheet" like you would any other brush. ♥♥♥

    I own two brushes, one that I use in the shower to evenly coat my hair with conditioner and the other is one I use when my hair is dry .... I didn't think about it when I used it on my Halloween wig that I dyed and now the bristles are stained black 😩
    But it was an old, cheap brush so maybe it's just time for a new one.
    I am generally a mess but surprisingly my hair brushes are very clean, I get rid of the hairs almost every time I use them and I thoroughly wash them maybe every 4-6 weeks 🥳

  • @annieyoung551

  • @deannakent1999
    @deannakent1999 2 года назад +2

    With my hairbrushes, I use them both on my hair and on my 3 cats and 1 dog, so learning how to clean the brushes is very important. The ideas you suggest for how to remove the build up on round brushes is the reason I watched your video. I'm also a Capricorn, but never realized my desire to purchase things immediately after I realize I have a "need" for something was related to being a Capricorn. I may use the tweezer idea, depending on how I feel after my chemo appointments.

  • @John-hh4uz
    @John-hh4uz 2 года назад

    Perfect. Now that my hair is about 18 inches long post Covid I noticed my detangler brushes had lots of lint. I tried picking this out with a tweezers but it was hard work. I noticed there was some grease when you compressed the lint. So new routine now as you suggested. A good wash , toothbrush and a tweezers for the more stubborn collections of lint. Many thanks for your helpful video.

  • @heartofananthropologist
    @heartofananthropologist 3 года назад +14

    Thanks for the tip about the tweezers! I generally pull those little pompoms off with my fingernails and about half the time they take the little plastic ball on the tip of the bristle with them. That's generally how I gauge when it's time to buy a new brush; enough of the balls are gone that the brush is starting to feel scratchy on my scalp. 😱
    I adore my current brush; it's made of wood with a mix of boar and nylon bristles and was ridiculously cheap for the quality (bestool on Amazon). It also came with a very nice little cleaning rake and a cloth bag to keep it in. Even though it wasn't expensive, I want to make it last (you never know when stuff is going to be discontinued, also why be wasteful) so thanks for this video!

    I would be a tweezer person for sure! I don’t think my brushes are too bad right now, I mostly use them when my hair is wet before products and I regularly remove the hair built up. But that being said I also can’t say I look at them too closely lol

    Best thing for my curly wavy hair was to get rid of all brushes that have those little balls at the end of the bristles. Just invest in tangle teaser, a wet brush or anything similar of ANY price point. No more pulling on my hair plus so much easier to clean because the hair and gunk just flows out of it with minimal trouble when I give in and must wash them.

Anyway, I was looking for a rigorous but not arduous process to clean my hair brush. So I was delighted to find your solution. Seems like a very reasonable approach. Personally, I think if I'm going to mend my ways & clean it more regularly, then I should invest in a rake. Thanks for that tip.

    I was honestly contemplating very recently about cleaning my brushes, but I had absolutely no idea how to. I always just buy new brushes when I feel it’s necessary… I never thought of even looking it up for some tips. My hair is dyed, and it’s been a vibrant colour for majority of my adult life… so you can imagine with the lack of hair washing to maintain it’s colour, alongside the product build up, it was going to be so satisfying getting through it all. I’m so glad your video was in my recommendations 🤩

I pull the hairs out of my brush consistently but always noticed the lint pompoms (which cute word to describe them) & even though I try my best to pull the them off its difficult to get them off. My best friend always makes comments how my brushes aren't clean enough with the way I was doing it. This was so much easier. Wish I would found this sooner cause they look so much better. Can't wait to see the difference using them on my hair will be. My hair is about you length & super wavy & gets knots easy so hopefully this helps

    What a great video! I was just thinking about how I need to clean one of my favorite hair brushes. Using an unused toothbrush works wonders.. One thing you didn't mention is that we can all obtain barbicide from sally's beauty and soak the brushes that can be soaked in it for 10 mins and for fancier brushes put it in a spray bottle and spray down the brush. This sanitizes them and gets off any extra bacteria and what not. (Cosmo student here for those wondering how ik this).
