Is this a boar-hair brush? All it says is "natural bristles".

It didn't say on the minimal packaging it came in. If boat hair is extremely rough and extremely strong, though, I would say it is

No, it's not The bristles seem to be a plastic composition. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and it's a life saver.

I don't know actually. Is there a market for rip-offs? When you get the brush, it comes in the same style box they've used all along. You can tell by the quality it's a genuine brush. High quality. I love this brush. I also have the soft bristle version for my young girls and they actually won't let me brush their hair with anything else. I'm sure it'll be fine buying from a verified Amazon seller.

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

I'll be honest, I do not have much experience on the subject, this is my first set of makeup brushes, and the truth is that its bristles are super soft, and I have washed several times and have not dropped a hair. It's probable that they are 100% natural goat hair, but I guess someone with more experience can get us out of this doubt.

Yes, "natural fibers" are generally made out of fibers from animals, like hog's bristles, or from plants, like hemp or coir (the fibers on the outsides of coconuts). The sellers may have some special definition of what the word "natural" means, but, trust me, the brushes look and act like nylon.

it stimulates the blood flow in my scalp by massaging it. this is excellent for hair growth. the boar bristles just create static.

They are natural boar bristles. The bristles are soft enough for skin but firm enough for effective Skin Brushing.

It says 100% Boar Bristles. I love mine, and it is easy to clean. Hope this helps.

The bristles are a soft plastic that is flexible. I think it works so well because it brushes through less hair at once. It works so much better and faster than using a wide tooth comb or regular brush. I will never use a regular brush again. Give it a try. It's well worth the cost.

They are a combination of goat and synthetic bristles. I love this brush set. I've had for a while now and haven't had any issues and I use them daily and wash them weekly

Not sure, i don't think it is bamboo, but I LOVE the brush. I have purchased other, cheaper brushes, which just started to lose bristles and get funky in no time, this brush is so much better and worth the extra money.

This brush isn't super soft, the bristles are pure boar hair which are pretty stiff and give you a rough but solid brush.

I happen to use both. I use the wooden brush first - I love the wooden bristles feel against my scalp and it is a better detangler for me - and I use it last to help de-static my hair. I use the boar bristle brush in between as I think it does a better job of moving sebum down the hair strands for shiny, healthy hair.

I am 61 years old and have fine but fairly thick hair. The Mason Pearson with not pull or break your hair when you brush through it. It is very effective but doesn't cause any damage. I have used one since I was in my 20's and I can assure you that it is one of the best brushes I have ever used. I have tried all brands and pure boar bristle brushes but the combination of the nylon/boar bristle far surpasses any I have used. Hope this helps you make your decision to buy one.

I am not sure but I think this is an average quality brush. It works but i haven't been overly impressed with it
