3.1 For Blow-Drying

1. Ensure hair is towel-dried to remove excess water.
2. Section hair into manageable parts.
3. Using a hairdryer, direct airflow onto a section of hair while simultaneously brushing downwards with the Cricket Static Free RPM 8 Row Round Hair Brush.
4. For added volume, lift hair at the roots with the brush while blow-drying.
5. The round barrel helps to create smooth, curved ends or add body.

3.2 For Curling and Shaping

1. Take a small section of hair.
2. Wrap the hair section around the barrel of the brush, starting from the ends and rolling towards the roots.
3. Apply heat from a hairdryer to set the curl, then allow the hair to cool slightly before gently unwrapping from the brush.
4. Repeat for desired sections to create shaped curls or waves.

3.3 For Detangling

1. Begin detangling from the ends of the hair, working your way up to the roots.
2. Brush gently to avoid pulling or damaging hair. The non-snag bristles are designed to glide through knots.
3. Can be used on both wet and dry hair. For wet hair, ensure it is not excessively tangled to prevent breakage.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning Your Brush

1. Regularly remove loose hair from the bristles using a comb or your fingers.
2. For a deeper clean, wash the bristles with mild soap and lukewarm water.
3. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
4. Allow the brush to air dry completely with the bristles facing downwards to prevent water from collecting in the base.

4.2 Storage

Store the brush in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to maintain its integrity and prolong its lifespan.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Excessive Static Despite Using the Brush

While the brush is designed to reduce static, environmental factors (e.g., very dry air) or hair condition can still contribute to static. Ensure your hair is adequately moisturized with conditioner or a leave-in product. You may also try using an anti-static spray.

5.2 Bristles Seem Damaged or Bent

Avoid applying excessive force when brushing or exposing the bristles to very high, direct heat for prolonged periods. If bristles are bent, gently try to reshape them. If damage is significant, consider replacing the brush.

5.3 Hair Snagging or Pulling

Ensure your hair is free of major knots before brushing. Always start detangling from the ends and work your way up. If hair is very fine or prone to tangles, use a detangling spray.
