Masážní kartáč na pokožku hlavy a mytí vlasů

Use it in the shower, once the shampoo is already on wet hair.

1. Wet the hair and work the shampoo in with your hands first, so there is lather for the brush to move.
2. Hold the brush in your palm — the anti-slip grip stays put with wet, soapy hands.
3. Work in small circles from the hairline back to the crown, then the sides and the back of the head, letting the bristles reach the scalp instead of dragging through the lengths.
4. Rinse the hair, rinse the brush and hang it to dry.

It can go into every wash, and on a dry scalp it also works on its own for a short massage between washes.

Two practical notes:

• With a medicated shampoo such as Nizoral, the point is contact time on the scalp — the brush is what gets the lather down there while it sits.
• Let the weight of your hand do the work. The bristles are meant to bend against the scalp; if it stings or the skin goes red, you are pressing too hard.

For external use on intact skin only. Do not use on broken, sore or irritated skin. Avoid contact with the eyes. Keep out of reach of children.

There is no formula to read here — this is a brush rather than something you put on your hair. The bristles are food-grade silicone and the brush is BPA free, which is the part worth knowing about an item that lives in a wet shower and gets handled with soapy hands every day.

Care: rinse it under running water after every use, so no shampoo or loosened flakes are left between the bristles, then hang it to dry rather than leaving it face down in a pool of water. Nothing else is needed.

Treat it as a personal item and keep it to one user. Check the bristles and the head before use and replace the brush if the silicone is split or torn. If your scalp is broken, sore or inflamed, leave it until the skin has settled — and if a scalp problem is not improving, speak to a pharmacist or your GP rather than scrubbing harder.

Will this help with hair loss?

No. A brush is not a treatment. It helps you wash the scalp properly and the massage feels good, but it does nothing about hair loss on its own, and the same goes for dandruff. If that is what you are shopping for, this is the wrong thing to put in the basket first — buy it as an accessory to whatever you are actually treating with.

Will it get through thick hair?

That is what the three bristle heights are for. The longest bristles, at around 15 mm, part the hair and reach the scalp, and the shorter ones make contact once they are through. On fine hair all three reach easily.

Is it going to scratch or irritate my scalp?

The head is concave so it follows the shape of the skull, and there is an air cushion built in behind the bristles, so they give under pressure instead of scraping. Work in small circles with light pressure. If the skin stings or goes red, ease off — and do not use it on broken or sore skin at all.

Can I use it on dry hair?

Yes. It is designed for the shower, but it also works on a dry scalp for a short massage between washes.

Does it work with medicated shampoos?

Yes, and that is one of the better reasons to own one. With the Nizoral shampoos the point is contact time on the scalp, and the brush is what moves the lather down to the skin instead of leaving it sitting on the hair.

How do I clean it and how long does it last?

Rinse it under running water after every use and hang it to dry — that is the whole routine. Treat it as a personal item, keep it to one user, and replace it if the silicone splits or tears.
