Is the natural rubber of the brush latex? Could someone with a latex allergy use this brush?

All natural rubber is made from latex. Latex is the white milky sap that comes from the rubber tree – a totally natural material from the earth. The rubber tree is tapped for its latex liquid in the same way the maple tree is tapped for maple water. And what we call rubber is derived from latex liquid. The latex liquid is coagulated to form rubber. Hope that answers your question!

As any rubber used in a consumer good in this type of application – it is vulcanized.

I’m almost done detangling my thick 3c/4a hair, and it’s been going pretty well. It’s not completely amazing and revolutionary, but it works just about the same as my plastic flexi brush.

Caring for this brush is no different from caring for a plastic toothbrush. You can just rinse it off in water!

I’m wondering what’s the life expectancy of this product? With plastic brushes I’ve used in the past, the pins tend to break or bend or become loose and fall out of the cushion base, usually within a few months of purchase. How long can I expect this brush to last with daily use?

These can be used for years and potentially decades. It’s best to avoid excessive contact with moisture or water – that will maintain the bamboo for longer.

Hi Brenna – check out this video from Kathryn Kellogg that explains how to clean our bamboo hair brush: https://www.instagram.com/p/CGDNrYIH0sG/
You can also go to her Instagram account and check it out on her feed @going.zero.waste
1) pull off most of the hair, 2) place your brush in a shallow container of water with a few pumps of shampoo or liquid soap like Dr. Bronners and let it rest for about an hour, 3) when you pull it out, all the residue will easily wipe away, 4) Let it dry upside down.
