Care of brush:

It is important to wash your hair brush regularly to keep both the brush and your hair in great condition. Regularly remove any tangled hairs and when you see residue start to accumulate on the brush pins it is time to give your brush a bath.

Mix a mild shampoo with warm water in the sink and using an old toothbrush gently scrub the pins and the rubber cushion clean. Dry your brush on a towel with the pins facing down. Do not submerge your brush in water.

End of life:

Once your brush has reached the end of its life, throw it in with your compost

6 reasons for a wooden hair brush

Did you know that Rubber Wood is not actually bouncy timber but comes from the tree that produces rubber? So rubber wood actually gives twice with our new range of ECOMAX Hair Brushes making them 100% plastic free, Vegan and biodegradable.

100% plastic free

All the materials and packaging in an ECOMAX Brush is completely plastic free. The timber is rubber wood which after about 30 years of productive life producing latex is then harvested for its timber. The rubber trees even produced the natural rubber cushioning used in the brush which is known to be anti-bacterial, hypo-allergenic and anti-dust mite. The pins are made from bamboo, another fast growing sustainable material. Our simple packaging of a swing tag tied with jute string mean that everything about these brushes is plastic free.

Hand crafted solid timber

Over time glues weaken and give up, particularly in damp environments like bathrooms. A solid timber brush has no glues so will last a lifetime. Rubber wood despite its name is a very durable hardwood belonging to the maple family. It has a beautiful appearance, ranging from blonde to a medium tan with distinct flecks and swirls of colour adding character and making every brush unique.

Less static

Ever wondered why your hair tangles easily and gets all fly-away and frizzy? Plastic is high on the Triboelectric scale for gaining a positive electrical charge which is why you often find your hair becomes frizzy and flyaway when using a plastic comb or brush as it passes that charge to your hair. Whereas wood and rubber are almost neutral, neither gaining a positive nor negative charge so no static hair when brushing and your hair stays nice and smooth. Simple.

Gentler

How many times have you had the plastic tips on hair brushes drop off only to end up with sharp metal pins, ouch! Even plastic is not very gentle, the cut ends under a microscope show just how sharp the ends actually are. Bamboo pins are so much gentler, with beautiful rounded ends that glide easily through your hair never scratching your scalp or catching in your hair.

Scalp and hair health

The natural oils that are produced in your scalp are nature’s way to keep your hair and scalp healthy. When you brush your hair with a rubber cushioned brush the gentle massage you are giving your scalp increases blood flow and your body’s natural ability to produce these beneficial oils. The rounded bamboo pins help to distribute these oils throughout your hair resulting in glossier shinier and smoother hair.

100% Biodegradable

In a throw away society with so much going into land fill it is now more important than ever to look at the full life cycle of the products we buy. These ECOMAX Hair Brushes are made to last but at the end of their productive life they are made from 100% biodegradable materials. So add them to your compost bin to breakdown naturally.
