Has anyone had bristles fall out after extended use?

Ours has not lost any bristles over many months of reasonable use. However - and not surprisingly, some of the outer bristles have become bent.

It's more like they get worn down after extended use. I'd say with daily use it lasts 4-6 months depending on your operation.

So sorry to hear you have bristles falling out! We have had our brush since Christmas and it's held up great!

I have been using my brush for a few months now, morning and night, and I have not had ANY issues with bristles falling out. I love this brush! It has really made a difference in the way my hair feels and has helped with shine as well.

They've held up (haven't fallen out) but there a bit on the soft side. In fact, some of the bristles were already bent out to the side when i got the broom and haven't straightened out by themselves or with me trying to bush them down. I use the broom everyday and have it for several months so I am okay with it but would have preferred if the bristles were a bit stiffer.

No, I have not. The bristles seem to be very secure and do not easily fall out. It really is a great set! :)

I did not have particular issues with the bristles falling out, but abandoned this one because the plastic bristles were about 1cm longer than the "boar" bristles, which was not what I wanted. I went with a Kent brand brush, which is quite good, but more expensive.

I have not had to replace it yet, I use mine almost everyday. purchased it almost a year ago. It is very sturdy, I have other brands handles break. I love this brush.

No, no trouble with mine. I've had my 1/2 in, Helen of Troy curling brush for about two years, and my 3/4 in. about 5 months with no problems. Maybe they've started using a new formula plastic for the brush bristles or you got a lemon. Bummer. Complain, return?? Not normal in my limited experience.

I lose one or two with each use. But I've only used it 10-12 times. There are more expensive brushes out there, with better quality. But for the price I'm happy with my purchase.

I replace my brush about every 6 months. According to anything you read, your supposed to replace the brush, probably every 30-60 days, however, I use the brush as directed, w/o much pressure (but some, of course), and my bristles are straight and in great shape for an extended amount of time. I feel that I get a significant amount of life out of every brush -better than I initially expected.Additionally, I have tried off-brand brushes, and I have not had a good experience. The off-brand brushes had considerably less power than the Philips brand brushes.

I had the same experience and then mine quit entirely. I had to pay to return it to 47th Street Photo since it was not fulfilled by Amazon. They sent me a new one after about a month BUT I don't expect this one to last more than 6 months. It will never last long enough to use the brushes that comes with it.

I have not had any issues. However, if you are incorrectly cleaning them and leaving them to dry in an incorrect position, this could be possible with any brush.

I have owned several of these over the years. The most recent ones I've purchased are dropping bristles like crazy. I'm not throwing the thing around. The quality isn't great but it's the only option out there. Ugh!!! Frustrated!!

Yes, a lot of them and it is only under warranty for 30 days so you should hurry up and send it back. I'm stuck with over 1/3 of the bristles gone and can't do anything about it, and it's only been 2 months. Extremely disappointed in it.

If you have tried the suggestions from others who responded to your question, I would contact the manufacturer. Be sure the brushhandle is fully charged and the brush is attached fully to the handle. They only last about 3 or 4 months before being replaced if you use the brush even once a day then gradually slow up in rotation. This is the signal to replace the brush.

Hi! Is it all the brushes or just the large brush? My fan brush shedded a lot but I didn't have issues with any of the others. With the large brushes you can literally brush them with a hair brush to free the loose bristles and then shake them firmly a few times. If its ALL the brushes, you might have gotten a bad batch. I would suggest contacting Amazon or Shany to see about a replacement set or refund. Hope this helped!

Good question, but no we haven't had any problem. The bristles stick out from the handle enough that it cleans effectively.
