Anyone who is honest with themselves knows they don’t clean their hair tools as much as they should. It’s easy to just use a hairbrush and put it back in the drawer, but what about all the grime and product build-up that’s left behind on it?

Cleaning hair tools is an overlooked aspect of a quality hair care routine. If you spend the time to make your hair look great, then you don’t want to ruin it by using dirty hair tools. Here are some of the most common tools you need to clean and why it’s important to clean them.

quality hair careCleaning Your Hairbrushes

Hairbrushes collect oils from your hair, germs and dust particles from sitting on your bathroom counter. Then when you brush your hair, all of those things go directly into your hair. And if you use various hair products for Remy hair, you’ll have build-up from those products getting gummy on your brush bristles.

To clean your hairbrushes, simply fill up your sink with warm water and add in a little shampoo. Get as much hair out as you can and then let it soak in the sink. You may choose to use an old toothbrush to scrub the bristles, but at least let the brushes soak for a few hours.

Cleaning Your Curling Tools

Not cleaning your curling tools can create improper temperatures and could burn your hair. Before you start causing split ends accidentally, clean your curling tools with some warm water and a cloth. For best results, plug your tool in for just a minute to get it warm, then wipe it down after you unplug it. Hair products will remove more easily when they are warm.

Cleaning Hair Accessories

Don’t forget about cleaning your hair accessories! All of those hair ties, headbands and clips gather build-up from the hair products for Remy hair you use also. You just need to soak them in soapy water for a while and rub them off with a washcloth to keep them clean and fresh.
