Avoid Brushing Wet Hair

When your hair is wet, it’s actually much weaker than when it's dry. Like nails, hair is extremely prone to breakage after you step out of the shower due to the humid, wet environment. One of the worst habits you could have is brushing your hair while it’s wet. A brush pulls on your hair and could cause stands to split or snap from the pressure.
