Review + GIVEAWAY : Boar Bristle Brush from Cover Your Hair
8:37:00 PM
If you've been reading my blog for quite some time, you'll probably notice that this is my third review + giveaway post sponsored by Cover Your Hair. Cover Your Hair is one of my oldest sponsor, they have been my lovely sponsor ever since this blog is just a few months old! Thank you Cover Your Hair!
Cover Your Hair is an online store that focused on selling Hair Accessories such as headbands, turbans, hats, Hair Clips, and bandanas (which is one of their specialty), etc. Aside from that they also have other sections such as Snoods, combs, travel mirrors, belts, and shawls.
Since I have reviewed a peacock-feather hair clip + bandana, and then a white pashmina from their store before, so this time I thought I would try to review something different. This time I will review the Boar Bristle Brush from their Combs/Brushes section.
This brush is the Goody Boar Ceramic Cusion Brush. The Goody brand is well known across the USA but I think it's a good thing that Cover Your Hair stocks these at their website so it's much easier for those of us who lives outside of USA to get these Goody brushes.
I have been wanting to try a boar brush for so long because I've heard that boar bristle brush has the ability to make hair healthy and shiny because it can redistribute oils throughout hair, therefore boosting shine. Boar bristle brush also has the benefit to reduce split ends because the bristles are packed closely together and it can give a delicate massage to the scalp and smooth the hair shaft too so you'll get healthy scalp, smooth and shiny hair all over.
When I received the brush in my mail I noticed how sturdy the brush is. The size is medium big, with a sturdy wooden handle and a wide area of boar blend bristle at the top. I love how great the brush quality is, and how big the brush is, it's a perfect size for blow drying tool too.
My take:
After using it for a few weeks now, I found it really great for my hair and it has given much benefits for my hair and actually makes my hair more manageable and looks great all day. I believe the boar bristle brush is suitable for any type of hair but I can say for sure that this brush really suitable for my hair which is a bit on the thicker side and has normal to oily type. My hair is not limping anymore, it has volumes now! And it does distribute the oil in my hair to all over the shafts so that I have shiny hair with minimal oil in my scalp. Love it!
The bristle is actually a combination of natural boar bristle and ordinary plastic bristle. If you can see it up close in this below pic you can see the bristle blend of the brush:
As I said above the brush is also great for blow drying because the bristle help your hair dry faster and it gives volume too when used with a hair dryer. You can say that I am now in the phase that I will never change my hair brush again because this is by far the best hairbrush for me! ^__^
