GranNaturals Boar Bristle Smoothing Hair Brush for Women and Men - Medium/Soft Bristles - Natural Wooden Large Flat Square Paddle Hairbrush for Fine, Thin, Straight, Long, or Short Hair

I love this! It helps me style my hair with my blow dryer quicker and frizz free!

I am actually pretty happy with this brush for the almost week I've been using it! The bristles are good and stiff, so they were able to get through most of the layers of my hair, and it does a seriously terrifying good job of volumizing. Or floofing, in my case. Easily remedied with a little spritzing with water. Or not, if you're into floof.There are a few cons to the brush, but nothing that should stop you from buying it, should you be looking for a nice brush to give yourself a nice scalp massage/shine to your hair/add volume... and other such things. There IS a smell that comes from the rubber bedding that the bristles rest in from using recycled rubber. However, if you let the brush air out after unboxing, the wafting odor goes away. You'd literally have to stick your nose in the bristles to be able to smell the rubber scent again, and it doesn't brush the smell into your hair. Believe me, I've done just that, much to the angst and irritation of my poor snoot.The bristles are juuuuust slightly shorter than I like, but it still grazes the scalp enough to give some nice stimulation (a pretty darn good itchin' relief) to your scalp. I know most people are used to a brush giving the full on scritchin' experience to your scalp, but I find that usually a lot of that, no matter how delicious it feels, usually makes my hair uber oily.Other than those very little things, it's a good boars bristle brush to invest in, I think!

Good brush.

The bristles are too short. It doesn’t reach through moderately thick hair.

Just want I needed!

Very weak strands

Bristles feel more plastic than boar. The handle is short and very light. Does not brush as smooth as I would like it to

I purchased this brush with the expectation that it was firm bristle ( that was what it stated). However, it was not, I was going to return but didn’t think it was worth my gas to return. It’s a good brush but not if you want firm bristle.
