I lost my previous wooden hairbrush and boy did I experience the difference of using a plastic bristled hairbrush. I have fine curly hair that is not the easiest to manage so I am very careful with what products and what I do to my hair. The unnatural bristled brush ripped at my hair. Breaking strands, creating frizz, and overall making my hair look fried and stringy. Then having enough, I ordered this lovely looking hairbrush and I loved the difference and improvement it made! The bristles are nice and rouneed so they don't rip at your hair and they feel very nice on the scalp. The quality bamboo tamed my frizz, gave lovely volume, didn't make my hair look stringy, and knots came undone faster. I am so happy with this brush! My hair looks great again because of it!
