GranNaturals Wooden Bristle Paddle Hair Brush

I have long, straight hair and love this brush. Have purchased 5 now!

My second one will buy again.

SHORT VERSION: I really like this brush. It's a very generously-sized paddle brush that works well for medium (shoulder-length) or longer hair, and I recommend this brand for anyone looking to try a wooden pin hair brush but not spend a lot of money. I give it 4 out of 5 stars only because I do find that it can cause breakage if you aren't really careful with your brushing technique (also never ever use on wet or damp ends). LONG VERSION: I bought this after watching Youtuber HolisticHabits rave about Tek brand wooden brushes. The Tek brushes look great but I balked at the high price (the brush I wanted was $45 USD!) I could not justify spending so much on my first foray in the world of wood pin brushes, so I scoped out cheap alternatives here. I was worried that this was TOO cheap but I am really impressed at the quality for the price. I've used it daily for a couple weeks now and it is holding up nicely. I must reiterate what I said earlier about not using it on wet hair and I don't recommend using it on tight rats and tangles --get those with a wide toothed comb first. Having said all that I noticed a huge difference after brushing my hair with this brush as opposed to plastic pin brushes and I don't think I will ever buy a plastic brush or comb again. It definitely does a great job at dispersing my scalp's natural oils and brushing with this gives my hair that "shampoo commercial shine". FYI, my hair is just past my shoulders and wavy 2a/2b, uncolored/untreated, with a tendency to have dry ends & small, tight rats. I can't say if this particular item would be a good brush for coarser/curlier hair but a friend of mine with coarser curls (African American) recently told me she too has switched to all wood brushes and combs and that she will never go back to plastic --I think wood pins may just be a better option for every hair type! UPDATE: over a year later and I still love my brush. I have found it to be SUPER DURABLE. I'm klutzy and have dropped it several times and it has not cracked and all the pins are still in tact. I use a little wooden stick to lift out the hairs because they do build up.

Not only was it cheaper than the previous German wooden hair brushes that I had purchased, it also seems to be of higher quality. Plus, its large size is much better for stimulating one’s scalp, because it covers a larger surface area than those other ones I own. The first week, the wooden bristles would really scrape my scalp and it honestly did hurt somewhat when I brushed my head with it, but after a week or so, it seemed like the wooden bristles got lubricated by my head’s natural oils, and eventually smoothened out, so it no longer hurts to brush with it. I really like this product because I can feel a an improvement on the blood circulation of my scalp due to me using it on a daily basis. I have been using it now for a couple of months strong, and it is still performing without any signs of deterioration, unlike the previous German ones I had bought that started crumbling apart within a couple of months of use. I will try to upload some photos that exemplify what I mean. I definitely would buy this product again.

Handle is a little odd to hold just because it's so wide and is a bit too smooth to be able to really grip but still pretty easy to use. Had a little weird rubber smell, but that's gone away a bit. I'm pretty rough with my brushes and usually the rubber will pop out from the brush casing, had this for a while and at this point especially it will happen, not with this brush! Very sturdy, at least so far so for that alone I highly recommend it! But also something with the placement of the bristles, or maybe it's the shape or since they're wood but I've found that it slides through my hair a lot nicer than other brushes do! Knots or snags in my hair come out really easily with this, really great!

The first time I received it, it came in a poly bag. Some of the bristles were chipped. They sent me a replacement in a box. 2 months later, one of the bristle is broken off. I like how the brush feels. It really stimulates the scalp. The quality of bristle is just not there.

I am tender headed with very long wavy hair that tangles very bad and this brush did AMAZING! The wood bristles that don’t have a ball on the end, like traditional brushes, just slide over tangles without ripping them. It brushed my hair so quickly, efficiently and PAIN FREE, I recommend to anyone with a tender head or who struggles to find a brush that goes through their hair nicely. It’s pretty large but very nice quality, and it feels like a nice massage on your head (the bristles are not sharp at all and they’re soft and flexible)

Don’t buy these because they have the little bulbs that make your tangled hair get stuck in it.

I love this brush. My hair is quite long and I have a lot of it so it looks really thick but each hair itself is actually very fine - so my hair gets very staticky. I used to have a wooden hair brush from The Body Shop, but it always felt like it was gonna break when I used it, that made me reluctant to buy another wooden brush but this one is amazing! No tangles, no static and it feels very sturdy. It distributes hair oil (natural and added) very well so hair doesn't feel greasy as quickly as it used to. Gives you a nice head massage too. 100% would recommend.

Produits reçus dans les temps (à peut d'heure près). Brosse en bois conforme à la l'article vendu sur le site Amazon. Elle est douce, très légère en main, agréable à l'usage et à l'ère d'être solide (à voir avec le temps). Rapport qualité/prix intéressant. C'est un bonne investissement, nécessité pas :-) PS : Juste dommage de ne pas savoir de quel "Bois" s'agit-il exactement ??? (seul petit bémol). Sinon pour le reste rien à redire :-)

A very nice scalp brush. The bristles are not too harsh on the scalp, as they are rounded at the top. It's soothing and stimulates the scalp especially for bedtime hair brushing. I'm here to figure out a Safeway to clean it. Since it is natural wood, I don't think dipping and leaving this in water is a great idea. But overall, a good purchase.

Me sorprendió cuando vi que el empaque del cepillo decía "Hecho en China". Pensé que me habían estafado pero realmente es muy bueno. Tengo el cabello bastante largo y ondulado y lo utilizo sin problemas para desenredarlo antes de bañarme. Me encanta.

I was recommended a bamboo bristle brush by my hair stylist, this brush is great! Feels fantastic on my scalp, brushes hair nicely, no tugging my only vice is that it gathers a lot of left over products from my hair. Otherwise love it!
