pureGLO wooden bristle hair brushes are crafted with 100% pure boar bristle set into natural sandalwood and bamboo handles. Boar bristle is uniquely effective because its structure closely resembles human hair, allowing it to smooth the hair cuticle, distribute natural scalp oils from root to tip, and add a lasting shine without the need for added products. These brushes are best suited to fine, thin, and normal hair.
Our wooden bristle brush collection includes a green sandalwood boar bristle brush-and-comb set for a complete styling routine, a bamboo paddle boar bristle brush for everyday use, and a standalone sandalwood boar bristle brush. All are handcrafted, eco-friendly, and biodegradable — a natural alternative to synthetic bristle brushes that damage the hair cuticle over time.
Boar bristle is a natural material harvested from wild boar that closely resembles the structure of human hair. This similarity allows boar bristle to smooth the hair cuticle more effectively than synthetic bristles, distribute natural scalp oils evenly from root to tip, and add a deep, lasting shine. Unlike nylon or plastic bristles, boar bristle does not create static or cause micro-damage to the hair shaft.
Boar bristle brushes work best on fine, thin, and normal hair. The dense, tightly packed natural bristles are not designed for detangling thick or coarse hair — for those hair types, a wider-tooth comb or paddle brush with nylon pins is more appropriate. If you have long, full hair, it is best to brush in sections to avoid excess tension.
With each brush stroke, natural boar bristle picks up a small amount of sebum (your scalp's natural oil) and carries it along the length of the hair shaft. This coats the hair in a thin layer of natural oil that smooths the cuticle and reflects light, giving hair a healthy, natural shine. Over time, regular brushing reduces the need for added shine serums or conditioning products.
The Green Sandalwood Boar Bristle Hair Brush Set pairs a boar bristle brush with a matching sandalwood comb, giving you a complete styling routine in one package. The comb is ideal for detangling and sectioning before brushing, while the boar bristle brush is used to smooth and finish. Together they cover all the steps of a natural, healthy hair care routine.
Remove loose hair from the bristles after each use using a comb or your fingers. For a deeper clean, work a small amount of mild shampoo gently through the bristles with your fingertips, rinse quickly under warm water without soaking the wooden handle, and dry bristle-side down on a clean towel. Clean your boar bristle brush every 1–2 weeks for best performance.
