Natural hair brushes – for gentle, all-round hair care
Natural hairbrushes differ primarily in their shape and bristle composition. Hairbrushes with wild boar bristles, pig bristles and vegan brushes made from sisal have proven most effective for daily hair care. The similar texture of these natural bristles to human hair enables, particularly with regular use, exceptionally natural hair care, protection of the hair structure and a healthy shine right down to the ends. Wooden hairbrushes are particularly suitable for strengthening the hair structure and promoting healthy hair follicles. Depending on the shape of the bristles, the scalp is massaged with varying intensity whilst brushing, which helps to improve blood circulation in the scalp. Thanks to their natural properties, wooden hairbrushes also have an anti-static effect.
The best hairbrush for my hair
Choosing the best hairbrush always depends on personal preference and cannot be determined in general terms. Nevertheless, hairbrushes made from natural materials offer numerous notable advantages over those made from plastic or aluminium, particularly in terms of durability and quality. These brushes are characterised not only by sustainability in their manufacture and disposal, but also by their natural properties, which benefit hair and scalp care. Furthermore, they impress with their high-quality appearance, pleasant feel and a longer lifespan compared to other products, making natural hairbrushes particularly sought-after.
To help you find the best hairbrush for your hair, here are a few basic questions that may help:
- What is your hair texture – curly, straight, long, short, fine, thick?
- How sensitive is your scalp?
- Would you like to use the hairbrush primarily to tidy and style your hair, or to care for it and distribute the natural oils?
The right brush to hand
Due to the material they’re made from, natural hair brushes are often heavier than comparable brushes made from aluminium or plastic. This makes them more comfortable to hold and makes it easier to manoeuvre the brush whilst grooming and styling your hair. Depending on your hair type, different types of brush are required for optimal care. A hairbrush for fine hair should have a denser bristle arrangement and softer bristles than brushes for thick or curly hair. Regular use of a hairbrush is particularly important for long hair to promote shine and a healthy hair structure. In our online shop, we offer a wide selection of hairbrushes, including brushes with soft or hard boar bristles, as well as variants with pig bristles and vegan bristles in various thicknesses.
Correct use for best results
It is not only the quality of the hairbrushes, but also their correct use that plays a crucial role in the outcome of styling and hair care. When combing and brushing, you should always work from the bottom up. Start by combing and tidying the ends, then gradually work your way up towards the roots. This prevents unnecessary tugging and pulling of the hair. It is equally important to use the right hairbrush for the job. There is a wide variety of hairbrushes available, such as paddle brushes for added volume and bounce, or brushes with boar or pig bristles for that extra bit of care. Round brushes for blow-drying and half-round brushes are ideal for styling large curls, waves or adding volume. Thanks to their smooth surfaces and long handles, each of these brushes sits extremely comfortably in the hand and enables effective styling.
