Natural bristle brush from Germany

GRÜNSPECHT natural bristle brushes are perfect for the daily hair and scalp care of newborns, babies, and toddlers. The extra-soft natural bristles of the goat hair brush gently brush fine hair, while the slightly firmer bristles of the horsehair brush are ideal for thicker hair. The brushes are also suitable for removing cradle cap and other skin flakes. This gently massages the scalp and promotes blood circulation. Thanks to their child-friendly size of 3 x 4 x 15 cm (H x W x L), they fit comfortably in the hand. The high-quality beechwood handle from sustainable forestry and the natural bristles make our German-made brushes an ideal care product for the youngest members of the family.

Environmental information:

Durability:Proper handling of the brush ensures a long lifespan. Regularly remove hair and dandruff from the brush.

Disposal:The natural goat hair brush can be disposed of with regular household waste and can be incinerated without any problems. We recommend disposing of the packaging with paper waste. Please observe your regional waste disposal guidelines.

What is a goat hair brush or horsehair brush used for?

A natural bristle brush is used for the gentle care of the sensitive scalps of babies and toddlers. The particularly soft natural bristles made of goat hair are perfect for fine hair, while the horsehair brush is ideal for thicker hair and curls. Both brushes gently massage the scalp and promote blood circulation.

From what age can the natural hair brush be used?

This brush is ideal from birth. It can be used even on newborns, as the natural bristles do not irritate their sensitive scalp.

What are the advantages of a brush made of natural bristles compared to a plastic brush?

Goat and horsehair brushes are natural, antistatic, and exceptionally soft. They prevent hair breakage and do not cause static electricity. Unlike synthetic bristles, they are free of plastics and microplastics.

How do I properly clean natural bristle brushes?

The brush should be cleaned regularly:

• Remove loose hair and dirt with a fine comb or your fingers.
• Clean the bristles occasionally with a mild baby shampoo and lukewarm water.
• Then let them air dry with the bristles facing down.
• Caution: Please do not immerse in water, as the wood may swell.
  

Is the brush suitable for babies with cradle cap?

Yes, but only for gentle care after soaking the cradle cap (e.g., with a little baby oil). The brush helps to gently remove the loosened flakes without irritating the skin.

What materials are the brushes made of?

The bristles of the brush are made of soft goat hair (light) or horsehair (dark). The handle is made of beechwood from sustainable forestry. Our natural hair brushes are made in Germany.

Is the natural hair brush vegan?

No. Since it is made from real goat or horsehair, it is not vegan, but it is produced in an animal-friendly way – the hair is obtained by shearing without harming the animals.

How long does a natural bristle brush last?

With proper care, a natural bristle brush can be used for several years. However, it should be replaced if the bristles fall out significantly or become discolored.

Can I use the brush for adults as well?

Yes, the brush is also suitable for sensitive scalps in adults, such as those with sensitive skin. However, due to its handy size of approximately 3 x 4 x 15 cm (H x W x L), it is especially suitable for babies and toddlers.

Until what age should you use a baby hairbrush?

A baby hairbrush can be used as long as the child has fine, delicate hair and a sensitive scalp – usually until about the age of 3.
Many parents also use the brush for other purposes, as it gently detangles the hair and cares for the scalp without pulling. Once the hair becomes stronger and thicker, a children's hairbrush with firmer natural bristles, such as our horsehair brush, can be gradually introduced.
