It has been 4 years. They said it was bad for you. Yes, the hairbrush. It was bad for curly heads as it broke up curls. Instead for the last 4 years I have been using my wide-tooth comb. And have enjoyed the curls ever so more. However, my comb for the last three days has been sitting in the gym bag, which I had kept in the car in case I would be able to go on Friday evening. And now the car is about 30km from home - as dad uses it to go to work.
So, far the last three days I have resorted to using the hairbrush. Somehow I have missed it. It just feels so good on the head & the scalp. A function a comb somehow can't fulfill. But they were right my curls don't show as much. But on lazy days when I tie my hair back, a brush would be ever so fun to use!
