The nylon brushes are common and easy to maintain. Here's how to clean them:

 

 

  1. Remove hair: After each use, carefully remove the hair accumulated on the bristles of the brush. Use a fine-toothed comb or your fingers to remove them easily.
  2. Cleaning with warm water and mild soap: Fill a sink or bowl with warm water and add a few drops of mild soap. Soak the brush for a few minutes, then use an old, clean toothbrush to gently scrub the bristles and remove any hair product residue. Rinse thoroughly with clean water
  3. Drying: Place the hairbrush on a clean towel to remove excess water, then let it air dry, preferably with the bristles facing down to avoid water stagnation.

 

Boar hair

The boar bristle brushes are ideal for straightening hair and distributing natural oils. Here's how to maintain them:

 

 

  1. Remove Hair: As with nylon brushes, remove hair after each use using a fine-toothed comb or your fingers.
  2. Dry cleaning : Since boar bristles should not be soaked in water, use a clean toothbrush or special brush to clean the bristles. Gently brush the bristles to remove hair product residue.
  3. Ventilation: To eliminate odors or impurities, you can expose the brush to the open air for a few hours.
