Wooden Hairbrush
14-day returns · Flat AED 40 delivery, one rate per order
Solid beechwood, unlacquered, set with natural boar bristle. It warms in the hand and darkens slowly with use.
Why it helps
Boar bristle is keratin, the same material as hair. It moves through hair smoothly and carries the natural oil at your scalp down the length of the strand rather than stripping it away.
The evidence
Thin, and we would rather say so. The sebum-distribution idea is plausible but we found no good controlled study behind it. What is documented is that brushing gently, from the ends upward, prevents far more damage than any brush material can.
Care
Keep it dry. Clean between the bristles with a comb every few weeks.
Materials
We work mainly in copper, moso bamboo, beechwood, cotton and natural fibre — materials chosen because they age well and because they have been doing these jobs for a very long time. Each piece is described above.
Care
Keep wood and bamboo dry between uses and they will last for years. Copper can be polished with half a lemon and a pinch of salt whenever you want the shine back, or left alone to darken. Nothing here is dishwasher safe.
