In Appreciation of: La Bonne Brosse’s Hair Brush
We’re giving five stars, and a well deserved spot in our Beauty Hall of Fame, to this smarter-than-your-average hairbrush
The Synopsis
You can thank your Grandma for the creation of La Bonne Brosse hair brush. It turns out there’s something in the old fashioned advice to brush your hair for 100 strokes every day. When the French founders discovered that the relaxing ritual of hair brushing not only detangles strands, but also stimulates circulation in the scalp and removes pollution and dirt build up, they set about making a brush that not only maximises scalp benefits, but looks beautiful on your dressing table, too.
The Rise to Fame
They say it takes a village to raise a child and apparently the same goes for hair brushes. The founders roped in a dermatologist, a cosmetic physician, a hair stylist and an acupuncturist to engineer a new-gen brush that would do the very best things for your hair. Together, they looked at 144 different hair and scalp types (who knew there were so many?) to land on four different brush heads to cover the entire spectrum.
The Credentials
As something you pick up multiple times a day, you want a hairbrush to last but also be a joy to use. La Bonne Brosse ticks both boxes. Depending on which brush head you opt for, the combination of nylon and boar bristles provide the most effective (and gentle) brushing technique, while the handle is made from sustainable materials sourced from cotton flowers and wood beads.
The Star Quality
Did you know that just three minutes of daily hair brushing can reduce how much hair product you need to use by 50%? Daily brushing helps to improve scalp health, control sebum production (bye bye greasy roots) and even boost shine and strength. It's a little daily habit that delivers big results.
