do you comb your hair?

When I was still in high school, I took good care of my hair. My mom told me to do 100 strokes every night to have a straight shiny hair. When I reached my last 2 years in college, I had a bob cut. Ever since then, I just let my hair flow. I rarely comb it anymore so it'll look like it has a lot of volume. How's your hair so far? :) Do you comb it often?

I comb my hair. I always ponytail it when it was long. Now it is short I just let it down since it is very straight. I used to curl it too before and I look cute with curly hair like that of my avatar. I also believe before that when you comb your hair 100times it will make the hair more straighter because the split ends go away but actually it did not. You have to cut those hair with split ends because your hair will dry continously and split ends will spread.

Yes, I do comb my hair. Brushing hair is more beneficial than combing since brushing stimulates the scalp and thereby promotes blood circulation. Over-brushing the hair can lead to hair damage, such as split ends. If you are brushing your hair before bedtime, you should only brush it sufficiently to remove any tangles. Never brush your hair when it's wet, and never comb it when it's dry. You know, It is untrue that sharing combs and brushes can cause dandruff. Dandruff is caused by a fungus that is found in everyone's hair. The difference between someone with dandruff and someone without dandruff is that the fungus responsible for dandruff isn't active in the person without it.

I usually have to comb my hair nowadays since my hair started falling and most of it are growing out again. It really looks bad if I do not make an effort to brush my hair. But yes, I do comb my hair but will have my hair done soon to stop this.

I usually comb it once a day in the morning when I stand up. Combing the hair too many times can make it to fell down so it's not very healthy to comb it very often. Anyway, my hair is also thin, so it doesn't too many combs a day.

I keep my hair really short so it's not like I need to comb. I think my short cropped buzz looks fine by itself, even if it gets a little bit too long.

I'm afraid to run a comb or brush through my hair because I have natural curly hair and if I ever do it I will have an afro frizzy mess. I only comb/brush my hair when I'm in the shower when I've put conditioner in it. It will go uncombed/unbrushed for a couple of days until I wash my hair again. Plus it's easier to put a comb or brush through it when it's wet. have a nice day

not really often. but when i have to i allot extra time combing my hair because it's a bit long (below the shoulder). mine's not perfectly straight but straight nonetheless. and thick and in the boundary of being dry, i guess because i go out in the sun right after taking a bath and you know how's humidity here in a tropical country. so the sun plus the air conspired in damaging my locks. yet, luckily, it's still manageable. in fact, a few people still envy mine. i believed in that 100 stroked too when i was younger but i'm too lazy to do it every night.^_^

course I do! I don't wanna look like crazy... My hair is too fluffy and curly. My mom also told me that brushing your hair 100 times before going to bed will make your hair straight and shiny, but in my case, it didn't work out. I always have a curly hair since grade school, and wanted to make it straight so I keep combing 100 strokes before bed time but it didnt work ha ha ha.. anyway, no matter what type of hair we have, we should comb it. It is part of our hygiene.

Hi, pierrella. Yes, I comb my hair thoroughly as I am blow drying it straight. My hair stays wrapped up all week long so I don't really need to comb it as much. My aunt used to always ask me if I combed my hair. I used to get annoyed with her asking me, this dumb question. Of course, I combed my hair. It did not look peezy or anything, duh...

When I was in highschool, I comb my hair rarely. I don't know but I think I was just a lazy one so I really hate combing my hair. My classmates usually teased me about my hair. They say that it looks like that I am not combing my hair. I don't like to comb my hair before because it is very damaged and hard to comb with. It always looks like that I am having a bad hair everyday. So what's the use? Even I combed it, it will always look like the hair of a lion. Now, I am taking care of my hair because I went to the salon to straighten it. I like the way it look now. I like combing my hair now because it is smooth and straight. I learn to take care of it when I entered college.

Unlike you, I never tried combing my hair 100 strokes per night. I never cared too much about how I look. Even when I had a long hair, I never combed much, which makes it look ugly. Now, im glad i had a bob cut because my hair still looks fine even if I just comb it every morning after I take a bath.

Of course I do. I comb my hair everytime it's not in good shape and every after bath or after coming from a windy place.

I only combed my hair before I go to work since I'm applying hair gel. My hair is hard to manage so I'm using gel.
