Fun Fact: Ceramic hairbrushes also emit negative ions, which counteract positive ions in hair. This eliminates static electricity, which causes flyaway and frizzes.
Negative ions also repair and seal damaged hair cuticles and lock in the hair’s natural oils for a smooth, shiny, blow out.
Creative Boar Bristle Brushes
Known for their ability to distribute natural oils, our Creative Boar Bristle Brushes enhance shine and reduce frizz.
Tip: Use this brush for finishing touches to smooth hair and add shine. It's great for distributing natural oils from the scalp to the ends of the hair.
Cleaning Trick: Boar bristle brushes should be cleaned regularly with a brush cleaner tool and washed with warm water and a gentle shampoo. Allow it to air dry completely.
GREAT FOR HAIR EXTENSIONS! For Hair Extensions care, use a brush with even pressure distribution to prevent tugging, offer scalp massage, and boost shine. Boar bristles can polish hair shaft, while nylon bristles detangle gently.
Detangling Comb
We also offer a detangling comb perfect for gently detangling hair, especially when wet and evenly dispensing conditioner/masques into hair.
Tip: Use the detangling comb in the shower to distribute conditioner evenly and gently detangle.
Cleaning Trick: Rinse the comb under warm water after each use. For a thorough clean, soak in soapy water weekly and use our hairbrush cleaner tool to remove any residue.
