Finally, a boar bristle brush without nylon tips that delivers maximum results. Boar bristles are the only fiber capable of providing real benefits to hair by distributing scalp’s natural oils from roots to ends to deliver nourishment and protection, leaving hair soft, shiny and smooth. Keratin fibers stimulate the scalp, increasing circulation and helping to promote hair growth. The brush handles are crafted from noble olive wood of exceptional beauty from the trunks cut by olive oil producers after the trees are too aged to produce olives. Following the carving of Altesse brush handles at the brand's workshop, the wood shavings are collected and given to local French farmers for use in their orchards, allowing the wood to return to the earth. The brush is packaged in a structured, hinged case made of recycled plastic for protection at home and for travel.Brushing is an art that Altesse has been practicing for nearly 150 years. Designated in France as a Living Heritage Company, they have devoted their expertise and craftsmanship to the development of brushes that are as elegant as they are effective. Designed for each hair type, they enhance the natural beauty of hair. How to use: Brush hair from roots to tips.
