A pre-wash brush routine for easy tangle-free shampooing

If you’re not brushing your hair before you shampoo, you might be missing one of the easiest ways to upgrade your haircare routine. Pre-wash brushing isn’t just about detangling, it’s about protecting your hair and giving it the best chance to thrive.

On average, we shed up to 150 hairs a day. If these loose hairs aren’t brushed out before washing, they tangle and knot with the rest of your strands as you lather, leading to unnecessary breakage, stress on your scalp, and a whole lot of post-wash frustration.

Brushing beforehand also helps distribute any natural oils and lift away surface build-up, which means your shampoo can focus where it’s needed most: the scalp.

When it comes to the brush you use, not all are created equal. Traditional boar-hair bristles can be quite stiff which tend to pull on wet or fragile hair, leading to damage and even breakage.

The Fab Brush uses ultra-soft nylon bristles in five different lengths. They flex as you brush, gently easing out tangles without tugging. And because nylon is non-porous, it’s more hygienic - it won’t absorb moisture, oil or product the way natural bristles do.

So next time, before you reach for the shampoo, reach for your Fab Brush.

Because every great hair day starts before the wash!
