Why maintain your hairbrush?

  • Used on a daily basis , our brushes may tend to collect small, unwanted particles during each use. Without regular cleaning, your brush risks redistributing the dirt and sebum accumulated on its bristles into your hair, potentially leaving it looking less clean than it really is.
  • Regular maintenance of your brush will protect your hair but also take care of your brushes made in France.

Choosing a French boar hair brush

  • Choosing a boar hair brush has several positive impacts, for your body but also for the planet.

  • Boar bristle is composed of keratin , it shares the same structure as your own hair. A quality asset which will naturally distribute sebum from root to tip thanks to its fibrous structure. The boar hair will guarantee the longevity of your brush. With regular maintenance for a brush that will accompany you every day.

  • In addition to its benefits for your hair, choosing boar bristles is also an ecological choice thanks to its French and environmentally friendly manufacturing.

To keep your boar bristle hairbrush in tip-top condition, you will only need two items:

  • Remove Residual Hair: Use the comb to gently remove tangled hair and remaining dirt from the brush.
  • Create a foam: lather the Marseille soap in the palm of your hands.
  • Clean Deep: Apply soap suds generously to the brush, making sure to cover all areas.
  • Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the brush with lukewarm water to remove all residue.
  • Careful Drying: Be sure to dry the French wood handle thoroughly using a clean towel.
  • Drying the Bristles: Place the brush upside down in the open air on a clean cloth to allow the bristles or bristles to dry naturally.
