Wondering how to grow long hair through brushing and combing techniques? We advise you to brush your hair when it is wet because then it is easier and more flexible than when it is dry. Start combing your hair from the bottom but not from up. Comb your hair continuously, but with gentle strokes and pull of the comb until you are satisfied that you have combed all of your hair. The main aim of brushing or combing your hair is to distribute oil evenly all over your hair especially from the scalp to the hair ends. Aggressively combing your hair breaks and damages your hair and you are sure you do not want that to happen. You need to decide the type of your hair before combing.  Use the right comb for your hair type. Instead of combing or brushing, you can use hair conditioners. You will know the right comb for your hair when you have brushed your hair and seen it shinning and feeling good.

Comb your wet hair gently using a wider comb. Start with combing 4 inches from the scalp, 4 inches going higher and go all around. Do it several times until you have combed your hair completely. If your hair is damaged or curly, you can dampen it a little before combing. After brushing and combing your hair, you should wash your comb with a brush to remove the dirt. If your hair has knots, never try to pull them, approach the knot from beneath.
