The first impression
Packaging and contents
ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

*The maximum score is 100 points
The baby brush was contained in a very compact, modernly designed product box; no instructions for use or additional information were enclosed. Information on sustainability, materials and use of the children’s hairbrush is compactly summarized on one long side of the box. This compact information provides a good initial overview of the product. The only question that is not answered in more detail is the origin of the materials and details on sustainability and product safety. There is also a round emblem with a German flag on the long side, which advertises quality control in Germany. A particularly positive feature is that no plastic waste is used at all and the packaging is very small and compact, which indicates the lampox brand’s environmental awareness.

Brushing the hair works very well with the baby brush. The very soft goat hair provides a pleasant head massage and prevents tugging. Pain-free detangling of the hair is possible without any problems. The handle is of exceptionally high quality and feels compact and premium . The smell of the goat hair is particularly pleasant. The hairbrush is almost odorless. Only the criterion of safety standards is too short on the part of the manufacturer: An additional note on safety risks would be desirable here, which could also be supplemented with more detailed information on the origin of the goat hair .
