How to rescue your hair after the holidays
Sun, salt and chlorine dry the hair and build up on the scalp. Here is how to cleanse and restore it without stripping.
How to brush your hair correctly
The foundation for a healthy hair care routine Brushing is one of the most overlooked aspects of hair care. For many, it's solely about detangling or styling hair. In practice, proper brushing is a crucial factor for hair quality, shine, and resilience. When the technique is right and the brush is chosen carefully, brushing becomes an active grooming tool. Why is brushing important? Regular and correct brushing has several documented benefits for both hair and scalp: • Stimulates blood circulation in the scalp• Supports a healthy environment for hair growth• Removes dust, particles, and product residue• Distributes the scalp's natural oils from root to tip• Reduces frizz and static electricity• Contributes to increased shine and suppleness Especially boar bristle brushes have the ability to distribute sebum evenly through the hair. This is a natural way to nourish and protect the hair fiber. Brushing can reduce the need for frequent hair washing When the scalp's natural oils are distributed correctly, the oily appearance at the roots is reduced. At the same time, the lengths receive natural protection. This means that many can gradually increase the interval between hair washes. Expect an adjustment period: • Short hair: 1 to 3 weeks• Medium hair: 3 to 5 weeks• Long hair: 5 to 8 weeks Over time, the hair will appear more balanced, lighter, and shinier. The correct method in three steps Step 1: Detangling Purpose: To remove tangles without stressing the hair fiber. Time: Late in the day. Method: Always start at the ends and work gradually up towards the roots. Move section by section to minimize pulling on the hair. Use a flexible Detangle brush with a natural rubber cushion and gentle bristles that reduce mechanical wear. Note: Hair is most vulnerable when wet. Therefore, primarily detangle in dry or slightly damp hair. For very curly hair, detangling before washing may be gentlest. Step 2: Care brushing Purpose: To stimulate the scalp and distribute natural oils. Time: In the evening, as a regular part of your routine. Method: Apply the 100 strokes technique daily, distributed as follows: • 25 strokes with head bent forward from nape to ends• 25 strokes from forehead to nape• 25 strokes with head to the left• 25 strokes with head to the right Use a boar bristle brush, which effectively collects and distributes sebum through the hair. The mechanical stimulation supports microcirculation and contributes to a healthy scalp. Step 3: Structure and protection in the morning A quick brush in the morning provides structure and volume. At the same time, the natural oils that have worked through the hair overnight are distributed. The result is more unified and resilient hair throughout the day. What can you expect? With consistent brushing, many experience: • Less frizz• Increased shine• Stronger lengths• More balanced scalp• Fewer broken hair strands The effect builds up gradually. Brushing is not a quick fix, but a sustained method to naturally improve hair quality. A simple tool with great significance A quality brush made from natural materials such as olive wood, natural rubber, and boar bristles is designed for daily use for many years. When technique and tool work together, brushing becomes an integral part of a healthy hair care routine. Healthy hair starts at the scalp. And the foundation is created daily.

The benefits of a boar bristle brush
Not all boar bristle brushes are the same. The part of the hair known as first cut is the most robust and functional part of the fiber. When used correctly and precisely mounted at different heights, the right combination of firmness and flexibility is achieved. Combined with a solid wood handle and a flexible natural rubber cushion, a construction is created that can last for decades. A quality boar bristle brush is not a temporary product. It is a tool that can accompany you throughout your life with proper maintenance. A natural approach to hair care By integrating a boar bristle brush into your daily routine, you work with your hair's own resources rather than against them. It is a simple method to: • Improve hair structure• Strengthen lengths• Create natural shine• Support scalp balance Healthy hair builds up over time. And the foundation begins with the tool you use every day.The benefits of using a boar bristle hairbrush A hairbrush is not just a styling tool. It is an active part of your daily hair care. The choice of material directly affects hair quality, shine, and resilience. A boar bristle brush is among the most thoroughly tested and used tools in professional hair care. The reason is simple: the material's structure works with the hair rather than against it. Boar bristles are a fiber related to your own hair Boar bristles, like human hair, consist of keratin. This makes the fiber unique in hair care. No synthetic materials have the same composition. The natural, slightly fibrous surface makes it possible to: • Collect excess sebum from the scalp• Distribute oil evenly through the lengths• Naturally protect the hair fiber• Increase shine and suppleness This mechanical distribution of the scalp's own oils is one of the most effective and natural ways to improve hair quality. Documented benefits of regular use With consistent use, many experience the following improvements: • Increased natural shine• Less frizz and fewer flyaways• Softer and more pliable hair• More balanced scalp• Less need for frequent hair washing• Reduced static electricity• Slightly increased volume at the roots The effect occurs gradually because the hair's natural oils are distributed uniformly from root to tip. Gentle on the scalp Boar bristles provide even and controlled stimulation of the scalp. The mechanical massage supports blood circulation without being abrasive. A balanced scalp is a prerequisite for healthy hair growth and lasting hair quality. Quality makes the difference See all LULAB's olive wood hairbrushes – choose by hair type and add your engraving.
