What are the bristles made out of?

They are a very soft fine grade of nylon. The package contains 2 brushes. I clean the brushes about once per week. I soak it in a water/peroxide solution and then put it through the dishwasher cycle. It has never made my skin break out. Since I have never used the electric brushes I can't compare them, but I really like this product. If you want a natural bristle then these are not for you. I wanted something that would clean my skin without irritating it and for this purpose it works well on my sensitive skin. I hope this helps.

All is says is anti bacterial synthetic bristles so you would have to ask the manufacturer .

Jenifer, I believe they are made of nylon but the material is not stiff and I use it for more than just the grill. It has become my go to brush for my wok because it is gentle enough so as not to disturb the seasoning of the metal

Uh Oh! A subjective answer is: They lean towards the hard side. Bristles flex easily but are firm. Sorry this isn't a clean cut answer.

I would not describe the bristles as soft. They will yield to pressure if pressed down with a thumb, but are fairly firm. You could control the amount of pressure applied for a more delicate surface.

The bristles are firm but not hard. The brush works very well for me. This is a quality product.

Hard plastic. I used them for awhile and one has already broken. The brush snapped off the handle. Hope this helps!

Nylon bristles, wood type handle. I've used them in classroom setting and am very happy with them. Easy to clean. Hope this helps you...

Bristles are stainless steel. Just the right stiffness, they do not scratch the dogs's skin but rather massage it. We are very happy with this brush.

I have new ones with the tag still on them, but they don't say what they're made of. The bristles appear to be regular nylon and the handle is very thick and strong with no recycling info. I love mine!

The bristles are a combination of synthetic hair and animal (not sure what type of animal) but they are really soft.

I don't know for sure. Not that familiar with veganism. Would doubt they're made with animal products. I'm sure the bristles are synthetic no animal hair.

Actually there are just bamboo tines. there are no bristles. I love the feel on my scalp and the tines do not split your hair because they are thicker.

I think they are synthetic, which I prefer. Boar bristle brushes tear up my hair, and this brush does not. I also love the Twilight paddle brush. On it, the bristles are plastic with beads on the end. That brush has lasted for years without losing any of the beads. Honestly, any of the Twilight hair care products are the best I've ever used.

I would say the bristles are about medium. They scrub well, but are not so stiff as to be uncomfortable. The problem is the slippery handle. There's no way you'll be able to hold onto it without taping it in some fashion.

Jessica, I have two copies of this brush, and there are two kinds of bristles--the straight up kind next to the bulb-on-the-end kind. I'm going to guess here and say both are synthetic. I love the brush--and I have thick, curly, fine hair, the kind that would show trouble if this brush was being rough on it.

They're wooden handles & really poor quality bristles. Very hard & scratchy.
