We're Here to Help! How to Detangle Hair from a Round Brush

No matter your hair length, you have probably found yourself at one point or another in a battle with your hairbrush. The longer the hair usually, the greater the challenge. There is a method to unleash your hair if you wondered how to detangle hair from a round brush.

If you like most of us, you use more than one brush to style your hair day in and day out. When you need something new, Spornette has some of the best salon-quality brushes to create the look you desire. We know what it takes to make the best brushes work for, not against your hair.

So how exactly can you detangle hair from a round brush safely without it pulling out your hair? We will reveal some of our best tips and suggestions that you can try the next time you find your brush stuck in your hair.

How Does Hair Get Stuck in a Brush

Anyone can get their hair stuck in a round brush when you brush your hair, but those with long hair or naturally textured hair are more likely. If your hair gets stuck, the first thing to do is stay calm, don’t panic, and don’t run for the scissors right away.

Hair not only gets caught in brushes but can become entangled in jewelry, curling iron, hair rollers, or another styling tool. The worst tangles, however, can be those that happen with round brushes.

It does not matter the size of the brush; hair can get caught and be difficult to free. It may be surprising to learn that damaged hair is more likely to get tangled in a brush than healthy hair.

You can get your hair released from a brush without cutting it, but it takes a bit of patience and perseverance.

How to Detangle Hair from a Round Brush

The first thing to do is to try and remain calm. Just take a deep breath so you can tackle the challenge.

Once you are ready to address the knot, you can ask for assistance from family and friends. If you try to do it yourself, it may be too difficult because you cannot see how it is stuck.

If you have a spray bottle, then you might want to dampen the hair to make the process easier. It can be much easier to work with slightly damp hair versus dry hair. If you can separate the knot into smaller pieces, then start there.

If you have a deep nourishing or leave-in conditioner, then apply it to the hair. You can use fine-tooth combs, hair picks, or even a pencil to separate the hair into more manageable sections.

Many stylists recommend using oil to detangle hair from a round brush. You might want to try jojoba oil or even olive oil. Though it makes hair wet and slippery, it helps undo the knot, so don’t worry, as you can wash hair after use.

Once you’ve applied conditioner or oil, you will work from the bottom up as to where it is tangled on the brush. Divide the hair into smaller sections and work on one section at a time. Pull hair out a little bit at a time. If you try to unroll the hair, it can end up getting more stuck.

The key is to be patient when detangling from a round brush and to work slowly. By doing a small section at a time, you should be able to accomplish the task.

If all else fails, then you may need to cut the brush from the hair. It is best to do this with the help of a stylist. They will assist and remove the brush by causing the least amount of damage to your hair.

How Can You Avoid Tangles in the Future

There are a few simple steps you can take that can help with tangles in the future:

  • Do not wait too long before removing the brush from the hair. The longer you wait, the more likely more hair will get tangled in the brush.
  • Try to get the tangle out before your next shower or bath
  • Avoid situations that may cause it to become tangled, such as windy weather. You can pull hair back or put hair in braids if you know you are going out in adverse conditions.

Are There Any Recommendations for Round Brushes

Spornette has a range of round brushes with several style diameters. Length of hair, texture, and styling needs can all be factors with which brush will work best for you.

We recommend the magnesium miracle brush for anyone in need of a new round brush. It is a combination brush with boar and nylon bristles that provide a secure hold when you style your hair. Both the bristles and the barrel are magnesium infused which heats instantly as you style. The brush comes in 3 diameter sizes depending on your needs.

The Smooth and Shine round brush is a preferred brush for women with thick hair. The brush is safe for those with damaged or fine hair. The bristles of the brush allow for a silky shine and smooth hair after styling.

The infusion rounder can create curls or volume depending on your decision for the day. It works for any style, including those with frizz or damaged hair. The brush has four different diameter options for you to choose.
