For the adult
- Show the picture instead of explaining the step — fewer words, more looking.
- Hold the hair above a tangle so pulling is not felt at the scalp.
- A comfort item, a mirror or a favorite song can make brushing easier.
- Stop while it is still going well. Short and calm beats long and perfect.
