Curly hair is naturally more fragile and needs special hair care. To keep it healthy and strong, using the right products but also the right styling tools is key. A boar bristle hairbrush can be just the thing you need to keep your curls bouncy, hydrated, and soft.
Which hairbrush is good for curly hair?
Curly hair requires the use of special hair care products and a hairbrush that preserves its natural beauty. A boar bristle hairbrush is the ideal choice for curly hair because it is gentle on delicate curls and provides many hair care benefits. When it comes to detangling, a specially designed brush is a must to guarantee a smooth experience, free of pain or breakage.
1 – The boar bristle hairbrush for curly hair respects the delicate fiber of your curls
Curly hair is more fragile by nature. It is therefore crucial to brush and style it gently to avoid breakage and hair loss, as well as to avoid disrupting your natural curl pattern. The Altesse Studio boar bristle hairbrush for thick or curly hair is just the right tool for the job! Our survey results speak for themselves: 85% of our users reported a significant reduction in hair loss and breakage. This brush is made using a unique assembly technique with boar hair fibers that are naturally composed of keratin, similar to the keratin in your hair. When placed at different heights, the bristles distribute sebum evenly from the roots to the ends, delivering a gentle brushing experience and high-performance results. What’s more, the boar bristles have just the right amount of stiffness to smoothly brush through thick or curly hair of varying density while maintaining its natural definition.
2 - The boar bristle hairbrush helps distribute sebum evenly through your curls
Properly brushing your hair helps to evenly distribute the sebum secreted in the scalp all the way down to the tips. We all know that curly hair naturally tends to be on the dryer side. This is because the pores of the sebaceous glands of curly hair are usually tighter and produce less sebum overall. Regular brushing using the right techniques can distribute this sebum more efficiently through your curls, naturally nourishing and hydrating them and leaving them shinier.
Boar hair fibers are particularly good for curly or thick hair types. Synthetic fibers like nylon or stiff bristles are unable to lift the sebum properly from the roots, which can cause hair breakage or frizz.
Brushing your hair doesn’t just offer beauty benefits. By massaging your scalp, it also stimulates blood micro-circulation, promotes hair growth, and supplies more oxygen and nutrients to your roots, which can help to make curly hair stronger.
In short, a boar bristle hairbrush ticks all the boxes for styling textured hair, which needs special care.
3 – It’s the perfect brush to tame curly hair
Those with curly hair know that it can get really frizzy and difficult to control. Because this tends to make hair look “puffy” and dry, it can be tempting to reach for the hair straightener. Yet, heat styling can break up tight or loose curls and cause hair damage! To tame your curls without disruption, start by applying a good hair cream or hair oil to restore moisture and smooth out your hair. Then, brush through it with a boar bristle hairbrush to say goodbye to frizz and hello to natural shine.

The Altesse Studio pro-tip: you can use your Altesse Beauté detangling brush for curly hair to work hair care products through your locks. Its bristles are of different heights, which helps to effectively separate your hair strands. This allows for better distribution of the products and a more enjoyable hair care ritual.
To detangle your hair, separate it into sections. Then start detangling it gently, starting at the tips and slowly working your way to the top. This technique will prevent you from pulling too hard at knots.
Remember to lightly wet your hair with water or a hydrating mist before detangling, because brushing through curly or frizzy hair when it's dry can damage its natural structure!
