How Long Have You Had Your Hairbrush?

I was reading an article the other day, recommending we change our hairbrushes every SIX MONTHS.  This seemed a bit extreme to me, but I do agree its important to keep our brushes in tip-top condition lest we risk them damaging our hair.

You see, built up debris of styling products and damp hair can lead to bacteria growth, and melted bristles from heat styling can actually snag the hair as we brush.  At the bare minimum we should be removing excess hair from our brushes after every use.  For the Gold Star of Care, we should be washing our brushes weekly.  Using baking soda and vinegar is an easy way to remove product build up and scalp flakes, helping to keep our brushes in better condition for longer.

We're putting the latest hair brush release from Mita to the test.  The last three Mita detangling brushes are all Top Rated by you, the people of New Zealand, so we're super excited to get our hands on this colourful beauty!

The Mita™ GEMTIP Detangling Brush is a unique 3D Flexi-Control Brush with multi-nylon bristles & gem tips.

Each bristle is physically formed into a smooth round sphere, like a delicate gem, free of sharp edges. The Mita GEMTIP detangling brush is super flexible with long & short thin bristles to remove tangles effortlessly and painlessly, reducing hair breakage.

The two-length bristles work perfectly to detangle and massage the hair whilst massaging the scalp and gently cleaning away dandruff and dirt from the scalp.

As well as for use on dry hair, the GEMPTIP shines when used in the shower.  It helps to spread shampoo and conditioner evenly along the hair and helps rinse them away more quickly without snagging or pulling on wet hair.

If you fancy a spot on this trial team, get chatting below about all things hair brush.  How long have you had your current brush?  Do you look after it well or is it a bit neglated?  Why would you like to review the Mita GEMTIPS Detangling Brush for us?

I’ve had my current hair brush for ages. I have long hair and so does my daughter. I’d like to trial this brush and see if I can find something that allows me to tame my daughter’s birds nest without having to wear ear plugs!

I’ve had my tangle teezers for a long time now. I look after then really well but they could look better. I want to trial this brush against them so i can see how they compare

I brought one but was a cheap 2 dollar store one 2-3 months ago but all the balls on the end of it of it have already fallen off and it hurts to brush the scalp ... have long hair halfway down my back (regrowth too from chemo 3 yrs ago) so would LOVE this and i9 use it daily to pin the hair into a ponytail or bun for work

Bought me a new hairbrush 3 months ago, would love to trial this one please.

I didn't know we have to change our hair brushes every six months. My hairbrushes seem to still work fine. This brush looks so pretty.

Wow, love the cute colour of this brush. I have an old detangling brush thats easy to clean but the bristles kinda all point in different directions these days. I'd love to trial a nice new one

This brush looks amazing! We have a detangling brush but it is small without a handle so I know this brush would get lots of use. Sadly my brush often also gets used for both of my girls and I have even caught my husband using it on more than one occasion. Clearly we need a new brush in our lives!

Would love to give this brush a try, I have had my hair brush for more years than I'd like to like to admit, think double digits.

With a pixi-cut a brush isn't an essential - which is fab when you forget to pack a hair brush with your weekend away with hubby! haha... That said - if there's a roller hairbrush review any time - I'll have my hand up, as sometimes I get a bit fancier/creative with my styling from time to time, which is where a roller brush is fantastic!

Oosh I'd hate to admit how long I've had my brush now! I'd love to try this in the shower, as I have started trying curly girl friendly techniques but have been needing to get something I can use to detangle in the shower but needed something kind enough on my damaged hair and this seems perfect, not to mention cute with the colourful bristles!

I've got a cheap broken detangling brush that i'm pretty sure is breaking my hair! would love to give this a go.

7th September, 2020

This would be amazing to trial please, not for me but my daughter who has beautiful long wavy hair which is fine and tangles easily. I am on a mission to find the best brush for her and was looking at something similar.

I honestly do not remember when I last replaced my hair brush! I need a new brush for my long hair that will not get tangled or break my hair.

7th September, 2020

I’ve had my hair brush for over three years. It struggles to detangle my hair as my hair is damaged from colouring it. This would be awesome to give a try to see if it can get through my damaged hair.

I have two hair brushes I alternate between but are at least a year old and are not a detangling hair brush. I could definitely use this as my hair is very long and it takes a bit of time and effort to brush.
