My barber in Tulsa swore that using a $6 boar bristle brush would fix my itchy scalp, and he was dead wrong

I used that brush exactly like he showed me for 3 weeks, and my scalp got so red and flaky that my doctor asked if I had started a new shampoo. Turns out I was just brushing dandruff flakes deeper into my hair instead of lifting them out, and the fix was a $4 bottle of tea tree oil. Has anyone else had a barber give them advice that made a small problem way worse?
