Losing hair in your brush? When you have fine hair, breakage looks like hair loss. Thinner hair takes less pull to snap, and most brushes are too stiff for it.

Breakage
You dread brushing. Each time, more hair is left in the brush, and your ends snap off.
Pick one off your brush. A white bulb at the root means it fell out, which is normal. No bulb means it broke.
Breakage comes from force. A thinner strand snaps under less of it. Yet most brushes are stiff, sold “for all hair types,” and many mix in nylon pins. On fine hair, that's too much.
Fine hair needs a softer brush, and a lighter hand. Start at the ends.
What you've tried
A comb, because it felt gentler. Brushing less, or not at all. A shorter cut, a ponytail, one more product.
Hair can get finer over the years, and many women first notice it around menopause.
None of this is your fault. But a finer strand snaps under less force, so the brush you use matters more.

A 2025 University of Miami review says more flexible bristles suit fine hair, to limit breakage.
The American Academy of Dermatology says hair never needs 100 strokes a day. Brush gently, only as much as you need to style it. On wet hair, use a wide-tooth comb.
That's why we make one brush only, and it's soft.
Why soft
A finer strand snaps under less force, so softer bristles don't break it.
100% boar bristle. One woman said the nylon pins of another brush felt “like sharp needles.”
A serum runs out. A brush doesn't. You buy it once.
Our bristles are 50% less stiff than a firm boar brush, according to our maker. One soft version, made for fine hair. We don't make a firm one for thick hair.

The price
Luxury boar brushes cost $118 to over $300 (October 2026). Much of that price pays for the name on the handle, and some of the best known still mix nylon pins in with the boar. Ours is 100% boar bristle, at $59, with free shipping.
Hair vitamins and serums are a temporary fix. When the bottle is empty, you need a refill, and the next month you buy another one. You buy a brush once. No refills.
A soft brush is also a kind gift for a mother or a sister whose hair has gone fine. Take 2 brushes for $99: keep one, give the other.
The pair saves you $99, and shipping is free.

FAQ
Fine or fragile hair that breaks easily. It's not for thick or tightly curly hair: soft bristles can't get through it.
Most brushes are firm, or mix in nylon pins. This one is soft boar bristle only, made for fine hair.
No. Wet hair is delicate, so use a wide-tooth comb on it. Once your hair is dry, comb out any knots, then brush. Start at the ends and work up, with a light hand, and brush only as much as you need to style it.
If it's too soft for you, or gives you static, tell us within 60 days of delivery for a full refund.
One brush is $59, with free shipping. Two brushes are $99, so you save $99: keep one, give one. Need 10 or more? Contact us.
