Your Brush Might Be The Reason Your Hair Is Greasy
We all know it’s not good to wash your hair every day, right?
In fact, some of your fave celebs claim to go multiple days without sudsing their strands, and maybe you do too.
Only problem is, some of us with greasy hair can’t seem to go more than one day without using shampoo. But is it just how your hair naturally is, or is it something else?
Well, it could actually just be your hairbrush – or how you’re taking care of your brush.

Obvi, these are both an easy fix. But how does one clean their hairbrush? Well, kind of the same way you would clean your hair.
