100% Pure Calcutta Boar Bristle Hairbrush for Natural Healthy Hair, Stiff Bristle, Made in Germany's Black Forest;

The Brush
Long ago in Germany's Black Forest - home to folklore and fairy tales - a brush maker began crafting the world's finest brushes. Today, his family legacy continues in the same German village it began, under the timeless watch of the Black Forest. The family's dedication to quality has never wavered. Their selection and processing of locally grown wood for the brush handles, preparation and precision cutting of the bristles, to the completion of the final product, the generations of pride are evident in every brush.

The Bristles
In the tropical forest of India's high country, a special type of wild boar is raised on small family farms. These animals live their lives in the freedom of the open air, not in factory farms. The boars thrive in the high temperatures and moist climate, and grow especially firm bristles. The boars are raised for their meat, but the bristles are saved for the merchant who travels from farm to farm to purchase them. It is these unique boar bristles, which come from the back of the boar's neck area, that make this brush so special. The first cut of the boar bristle is the most firm. This cut includes the root, which is the light color visible at the bristle's end. Named for the port they are exported from, Calcutta bristles require specialized techniques for brush making. This is why a high quality brush made with Calcutta bristles is a rare and premium item.

Natural Hair Care
High quality wild boar bristles naturally absorb oils from the scalp. When the hair is brushed, this oil is transferred down the hair shaft. This process creates a natural sheen, volume and fullness, while also helping to prevent split ends.
