The material of our hairbrushes
The bodys of our hairbrushes are made of wood refined with a natural wax finish. Various types of wood including pear, beech, thermo ash, and olive define our product range. The latter is hard with small pores due to its slow growth. The high proportion of oil makes it water-repellent.
A further natural characteristic of our brushes is the bristle stocking material made of wooden pins and animal hair.
Wood pins: Anti-static and temperature-regulating
The wooden pins that constitute the bristles of our hairbrushes are made of sturdy hornbeam. The slender wooden pins are rounded at the ends and offer a gentle, protective, and pleasant pampering of the sensitive skin on the scalp. Moreover, the pins are effectively embedded into the cushion of the brush to prevent needless pulling of the hair, which loosens it at the roots. Also, in contrast to metal pins, the wooden ones hardly absorb heat during blow-drying and have a desirable anti-static effect.
Goat hair: Like a gentle caress
Goat hair is especially soft and gentle on a baby‘s scalp. For young children, we recommend hairbrushes with soft pig bristles – because the „grownup brushes“ are usually too hard for the delicate skin of children.
Wild boar bristles: The best for your hair
The wild boar bristles in our hairbrushes are punched and assembled at various lengths so that your hair is caught at different levels during brushing, which allows for ease of styling. Dust and dirt particles are released from the scalp and hair during brushing. Oil released by the roots, the so-called sebum, is evenly distributed through the hair. This protects against dry, brittle ends and gives hair a natural shine. Wild boar bristles are also extremely heat-resistant, even at high blow-drying temperatures. They have the right hardness for brushing your hair and scalp vigorously yet gently. For those who like it softer, we also offer light, soft bristles as part of our product range.
Brush care
For the optimal cleansing of all of your brushes, use lukewarm soapy water and our special brush cleaner. Using the comb and brush cleaner, you can effortlessly remove all of the hair from your brushes. Simply move the moistened brush cleaner back and forth between the individual rows, effectively removing hairspray residue and other hair care products. Do not immerse your brushes totally in water! After cleansing, dry your brushes with the bristles pointing downward.
Hint
Attention: Hot hairdryer!When drying your hair, please ensure that the hairdryer is set to a low temperature. Setting the hairdryer too hot damages the hair structure and quickly looses shape and shine. It is best to only blowdry hair briefly or allow it to air dry. You should also try not to wash your hair daily, since this merely stimulates the sebaceous glands in the scalp into excess production so that hair gets oily much more quickly. Instead an occasional head massage, possibly witha cold pressed plant oil, is good for the hair and scalp.
