Hi there! Happy Wednesday!
Happy New Year! I hope that 2019 feels fresh and full of possibilities! I would like to challenge you to do something that scares and excites your this year every month. I stated by signing up for a course that I’m not sure I’m ready for but I’m deciding to tell myself that my nerves are actually just excitement. Coffee clinks and champagne cheers to 2019!
I have long hair, and I have been a Wet Brush user for years! I have purchased several, on average about one each year (which works out to less than 0.20 cents a week or in my case about a penny every time I use it) because the brushes are still in great shape, but literally dusty with dry shampoo gunk since I am self-proclaimed dry shampoo crazy. I needed a new Wet Brush, and I saw the Wet Brush Paddle Hair Brush on Amazon for about $1 more than the Original Wet Brush Oval Brush and decided that because it has more surface area it might be helpful for my very long hair.
My Thoughts
It doesn’t look like that much of a difference in surface area when you compare the Wet Brush Paddle Hair Brush vs. the Wet Brush Oval Brush but I was blown away by the difference. I like both brushes for combing through my hair (something I do several times a day when my hair is down), but when my hair is wet out of the shower and I’m trying to comb product though (almost always my go-to favorite is the It’s a 10 Leave-In Treatment) I noticed that the Wet Brush Paddle Hair Brush combed through my long, fine but thick hair in record time! I think both Wet Brushes are fantastic, and I will continue to use both, and will never ever ever go back to the days of my gigantic wide-tooth comb incredibly time consuming old way of combing out my wet hair.
My Routine
I do not use the Wet Brush in the shower, but you totally could depending on your preferences, but after I shampoo and condition my hair, I squeeze in out with my hands and wrap it in a hair towel (I like this one and this one) but do not rub my hair with the towel because that can damage you hair. I like my hair dry in the hair towel while I apply lotion or sunless tanner, do my nighttime skincare routine, and brush my teeth. Once I am in my pajamas (these are my current favorites) I take my hair out of the towel, squeezing to absorb as much as I can into the towel, and then spray it with any product I am using before combing it out with my Wet Brush Paddle Hair Brush. I start at the root of my hair and gently work my way down to my ends.
Which Is Better?
I don’t think you will miss with either brush, but for me the paddle brush has the edge because it makes it even faster for me to brush out my wet hair. I think if your hair is shoulder length of longer the paddle brush is the winner.
