The benefits of using a boar bristle hairbrush

Boar hair: a fiber of unmatched quality for unmatched results

Brushes made from high quality boar hair are known for their effectiveness, quality and durability, and are therefore the hairbrush of choice for professionals as well as home users. This is because they are not just a hair accessory, but an essential hair care tool that improves hair quality and makes it more beautiful with time and regular use.

Boar hair is without a doubt the fiber best suited for hair care. It’s the only fiber whose composition is similar to our own hair, and the only fiber composed of keratin, just like our hair is. Its fibrous structure helps distribute sebum evenly through the hair right down to the tips, leaving it naturally shiny, healthy and protected. When the right cut of boar hair is selected and the bristles are placed at different heights, they provide the perfect level of stiffness to gently brush through each strand of hair and deliver high-performance results.

Last but not least, boar hairs are robust enough to make these hairbrushes extremely durable. The old saying goes that a boar bristle brush lasts a lifetime, which is why some Altesse Studio hairbrush models even come with a lifetime warranty!

Boar hair: a hairbrush that conditions and offers numerous other benefits

The unique high-keratin composition of boar hair combined with our special assembly technique takes the hair brushing experience to another level, elevating your hair care routine like nothing else. Within the first few days of using our boar bristle hairbrushes, you will see the following benefits:

• Your hair will regain its natural shine
• Your scalp will be slower to get greasy
• Your hair fiber will be naturally nourished and protected
• Your hair will be softer and more supple
• Your hair will be less frizzy and smoother overall
• You will see an increase in hair volume
• Static electricity will be reduced
• Each hair strand will be gently yet perfectly brushed through
• Your scalp will be less irritated and your hair will be less damaged

Beware! Not all boar bristle brushes are alike in terms of quality

A boar bristle brush is your best ally for improving the quality of your hair and naturally enhancing its beauty. Integrating it into your daily hair care routine is a 100% natural, environmentally friendly way to take care of your hair and gradually space out your shampoos.

But you should know that all cuts of boar hair and all boar bristle brushes are not the same! Only the root end of the hair, known as the “first cut,” mounted using expert techniques, can yield these benefits. Moreover, innovative methods and technologies can be used to shape brushes suited for different hair types to ensure the highest level of performance in terms of conditioning and caring for your hair. This is where we, at Altesse Studio, step in. Our experience in crafting brushes goes back over a hundred years, and we use this know-how to deliver the best for your hair.

Our consumer survey results speak “volumes” of our expertise: 92% of Altesse Studio hairbrush users report that their hair is shinier after use, while 78% found their hair more beautiful overall.
