The organic hairbrush with wild boar bristles from FABCARE offers an innovative solution for effortless detangling without pulling and tugging. Thanks to the double spiral, the brush glides gently through the hair and gently detangles knots. The brush consists of 70 percent wheat straw and is equipped with long-lasting boar bristles. These distribute the natural oils evenly through the hair, creating more shine and volume. Thanks to its flexibility and the natural boar bristles, the brush adapts to the shape of the head and forms a combination with the integrated nylon bristles which, like a pleasant massage, promotes blood circulation to the scalp and at the same time stimulates hair growth. This unique combination makes it possible to adapt the brush individually to different hair types and improve the overall hair structure. Whether dry or wet, the Detangler brush is versatile and ideal for both hair conditions. The hairbrush from Fabcare delivers what it promises, is suitable for both men and women and ensures a pleasant brushing experience.

In our practical test, the FABCARE organic hairbrush proved to be extremely effective in many respects. Its ability to gently and painlessly detangle the hair ensures a pleasant brushing experience without tugging and pulling. In addition, it has a remarkable effect on the hair by evenly distributing natural oils, resulting in improved hair texture with more shine and volume. The ecological approach by using wheat straw and wild boar bristles underlines its contribution to environmental protection and makes it an eco-friendly alternative in the hair care segment.
The versatility of the brush for different hair types and its ability to smooth the hair during blow-drying and give it a silky texture underline its functionality. However, thin hair may become slightly tangled. The comfort aspect is evident in the flexibility on both dry and wet hair and the natural bristles, which are not only comfortable when brushing but also provide a soothing head massage.
Despite their impressive performance, parts of the boar bristles have been found to wear out. This wear can affect the overall lifespan of the brush and affect the quality over a longer period of time. It is recommended to examine the durability and quality of the bristles more closely and possibly make material improvements in order to increase the service life and maintain the very good quality of the brush.
