An ancestral gesture, brushing is not just about styling your hair. Here at Altesse, we decided to also make it a treatment to soothe sensitive scalps. Whatever the cause of scalp sensitivity and irritation, our massaging and soft boar bristle hairbrushes have been designed to reduce irritation and balance the scalp.
Made with the highest quality wild boar bristles, mounted on natural wooden handles, our hairbrushes stimulate microcirculation, promote the elimination of impurities, and help distribute natural sebum throughout the length of the hair. This gentle yet effective action helps rebalance the scalp, reducing feelings of discomfort and irritation. Indeed, rich in keratin (like hair), boar bristles allow excess sebum to be captured at the roots and distributed evenly to the ends. This regulates sebum production and prevents scalp irritation. In addition, regular brushing with our brushes stimulates blood circulation, increasing oxygenation to the hair follicles and strengthening hair vitality.
To avoid further causing damage to an already sensitive scalp, use a gentle approach to detangling with an Altesse Studio brush. Thanks to their organically sourced nylon bristles, which are both soft and spaced apart, they magically detangle hair by gliding effortlessly through any knots without pulling or breaking the hair. The size and shape of the handle has also been specially designed to ensure better pressure control when brushing and a better fit to the contour of the scalp.
Brush your hair in sections. Use light movements from root to tip, without putting undue pressure on the scalp. If it’s more comfortable, tilt your head forward. Limit brushing to 2-3 minutes per day, preferably in the evening to remove any impurities that have built up during the course of the day. Please note that sensitive scalps should not be dried using hot air. With Altesse brushes, turn your haircare routine into a moment of sumptuous well-beingwhile also enjoying the benefits of healthy hair and scalp.
