This natural boar bristle hairbrush is gentler on hair that is thinning than regular bristle brushes.
It employs a gentler “cut” of bristles rather than the stiffer root-end that is used on brushes for regular hair, which enables its 2,300 bristles to gently glide through thinning hair without pulling, leaving hair looking healthy and shining in the process.
The brush is created by G.B. Kent & Sons, which is the oldest brush maker in the world. It was founded in 1777 and has been a holder of the Royal Warrant during nine different reigns of the British monarchy. The brush is imported from England.
Each brush is made using a 10-step process that takes eight hours to finish. Only the highest quality natural boar bristle from India and China is used in the production of these brushes.
The brush is painstakingly assembled by craftsmen, who check to make sure that the bristles are firmly embedded in the flexible rubber cushion.
The head of the brush is shaped like a flat oval. Include a cleaning tool for the brush.
Brushing thinning hair requires a gentle approach to prevent further damage or hair loss. Here are some tips to help you brush your thinning hair:
- Choose the right brush: Opt for a soft-bristled brush with wide-spaced bristles. Avoid brushes with sharp bristles, as they can damage your hair and scalp.
- Brush your hair when it’s dry: Wet hair is more fragile, so avoid brushing it when it’s damp or wet. Wait until your hair is completely dry to start brushing.
- Use gentle strokes: Start at the ends of your hair and work your way up to the roots. Use slow, gentle strokes, and avoid pulling or tugging on your hair. If you encounter any tangles, gently work them out with your fingers before using the brush.
- Avoid brushing too much: Brushing too much can put extra stress on your hair, leading to breakage and further thinning. Aim to brush your hair once or twice a day, and be gentle when doing so.
- Consider using a detangling spray: If you find that your hair is prone to tangles, consider using a detangling spray before brushing. This can help make the process easier and less damaging to your hair.
- Be mindful of styling products: Avoid using too much hairspray, gel, or other styling products, as they can weigh down your hair and make it more difficult to brush. If you do use these products, be sure to wash them out thoroughly before brushing your hair.
- Take care of your scalp: A healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair growth. Be sure to wash your hair regularly, and consider using a scalp massage brush to help improve circulation and promote hair growth.
By following these tips, you can help protect your thinning hair while still keeping it looking its best. Remember to be gentle and patient, and don’t hesitate to consult a professional stylist or dermatologist if you have any concerns about your hair health.
