Goat hair brush

The GRÜNSPECHT goat hair brush is perfect for the daily hair and scalp care of newborns, babies, and toddlers. The extra-soft natural bristles made of genuine goat hair gently brush fine hair and remove cradle cap and other skin flakes. This also gently massages the scalp and promotes blood circulation. Thanks to its child-friendly size of 3 x 4 x 15 cm (H x W x L), the brush fits comfortably in the hand. The high-quality wooden handle and the natural, soft goat hair make our brush an ideal care product for the youngest members of the family.

The goat hair brush is ideally suited thanks to its particularly soft natural bristles:

• For the daily care of the first delicate baby hairs and sensitive scalp
• For the gentle removal of already detached cradle cap and skin flakes, such as seborrheic dermatitis.
• To promote blood circulation in the scalp
  

Cleaning and care tips:

• Store in a dry place after each use to protect the natural bristles.
• Remove loose hair and dirt with a fine comb or your fingers.
• Clean with mild shampoo and lukewarm water if necessary. Store with the bristles facing down to dry. Ensure the wood does not get wet to prevent cracking.
• Avoid direct sunlight and moisture to extend the lifespan.

What is a goat hair brush used for?

A goat hair brush is used for the gentle care of the sensitive scalps of babies and toddlers. The particularly soft natural bristles made of goat hair gently massage the scalp, promote blood circulation, and help to gently brush fine baby hair.

From what age can the goat hair brush be used?

The brush is ideal from birth. It can be used even on newborns, as the soft goat hair does not irritate the sensitive scalp.

What are the advantages of a goat hair brush compared to a plastic brush?

Goat hair 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 clean the goat hair brush properly?

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 is the goat hair brush made of?

The bristles of the brush are made of soft goat hair. The handle is made of wood.

Is the goat hair brush vegan?

No. Since it is made from real goat hair, 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 goat hair brush last?

With proper care, a goat hair 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, for example, those with thin hair or 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.
