Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
There is no complex setup required for the Cantu Updo Natural Bristle Brush. Simply remove it from its packaging, and it's ready for immediate use. No batteries, charging, or assembly needed.
Compatibility
This brush is specifically designed and highly effective for curly, coily, and afro hair types. Its firm natural bristles are suited for smoothing and styling these textures. While it can be used on other hair types, its specialized design and firmness mean it might not offer the same optimal benefits or could be too firm for very fine or delicate straight hair.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and effectiveness of your brush:
- Remove Hair Regularly: After each use, or as needed, use your fingers or a comb to gently remove any trapped hair from the bristles.
- Deep Clean Periodically: When the bristles appear dirty or coated with product, wash the brush. Fill a basin with lukewarm water and a small amount of mild shampoo or soap. Gently swirl the brush in the water, or use your fingers to work the soap through the bristles.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the brush under cool running water until all soap residue is gone.
- Air Dry: Shake off excess water and lay the brush on a clean towel with the bristles facing down to allow it to air dry completely. Avoid direct heat sources like hair dryers, which can damage the bristles.
