Unveiling the Mystery of Hairbrush Dust Bunnies: A Licensed Cosmetologist's Revelation

Licensed cosmetologist Casey Davis revealed on TikTok that the "dust bunnies" found in hairbrushes are actually a combination of dead skin cells and oil buildup. She recommended a cleaning regime involving hot water, clarifying shampoo, baking soda paste, and air drying to dissolve the buildup. Davis advised washing hairbrushes every few weeks or monthly, but more frequently if there is significant buildup. It is also important to replace worn-out or damaged brushes.
