How to use
When shampooing, lather your hair thoroughly and gently massage your scalp while washing. Apply scalp serum and use the brush in a zigzag motion, lifting from bottom to top. In bath: 1. After thoroughly pre-washing your hair and scalp, apply cleanser or shampoo and lather thoroughly. 2. Move the brush in a zigzag motion from the center of your face to the left and right. 3. Move the brush vertically upwards from above your ears and nape. Out bath: 1. Use the brush to stimulate the acupressure points on each side of your head. Center of the hairline on the forehead → Top of the head (Baihui) → Back of the head; Center of the hairline on the forehead → Temples (Taiyang) → Above the ears (Juosun). 2. Stimulate the hollow at the back of your head at the hairline (Fengchi). Hold the brush in your left hand and press it against the base of your head, pointing slightly upward to press against the acupressure point. Do the same on the right side.

I saw it on Suzykirei and bought it because the reviews were good. I wasn't sure which type to get, but I decided on the Barikata type, hoping for better results. It's really good! It's hard, so I use it without using too much pressure, just to stimulate my hair. I can use it in various situations, such as while shampooing or whenever I have time, and I feel like my complexion has become brighter, probably because my scalp has become refreshed and blood flow has improved. My hair has also become shinier. I'm looking forward to seeing the results and will continue to use it.
I used the black version of this about three years ago, but I wanted something a little firmer, so I bought this. It has just the right amount of firmness to massage the scalp and improve blood circulation.
I already had a scalp brush from another brand, but I wanted something harder, so I bought this one that had good reviews. Because it's hard, I was able to apply firm pressure to my scalp and massage it, which I think really helped relieve stiffness. I even want to buy another one and use it to massage my scalp with both hands.
Although it's called "barikata," it's not too hard, and it feels just right for massaging your head after a bath or in the morning. My 57-year-old mother has also started to notice her gray hairs, so I gave her this along with Bigen and COTA scalp serum, and she seems to have enjoyed it.
I'm using the same brush, but it's starting to get rounded, so I'm replacing it. There are a lot of different brushes on the market, and I'm curious about them, but this one is so comfortable to use that I can't go anywhere else! I use it when shampooing, and it makes my hair feel so much smoother and cleaner.
