From detangling to defining, these are the 7 best hair brushes for curly hair

A good curly hair day can start with something as simple as the right hair brushes for curly hair. But when your curls are prone to knots, frizz and plenty of resistance, detangling can quickly become the least enjoyable part of your routine. Few things are as heart-wrenching as the feeling of a brush getting caught in a knot and the immediate fear that comes with knowing you are about to lose a few strands. The wrong kind of brush or comb can tug at the scalp, disturb your curl pattern and lead to unnecessary breakage, which is why finding the right hair brushes and combs for curly hair that work with your curls rather than against them can make all the difference.

Whether you want to gently work through stubborn knots, define your curls without flattening them or evenly distribute your favourite curl creams and gels, there’s a tool for the job. From flexible detangling hair brushes for curly hair to wide tooth combs, these are the tools worth adding to your curly hair routine.

The anti-static bristles help reduce frizz for a smoother, more polished finish.

Why we love it: If you like to style your curls with your haircare products, this brush doubles up as a handy tool for evenly distributing hair masks, curl creams and other styling products through the lengths.
