I Love this hairbrush! Its light, holds well in hand. It’s gentle on my mature, sensitive scalp, but it stil goes through the strands and separates. It doesn’t flatten my fine hair, leaves it with volume. I have another Boar bristle brush, a very ‘popular’ one & it HURTS my scalp & it takes away my volume. I still use it sometimes, but I don’t enjoy the experience… I look forward to brushing my hair with my luxury LBB. Can’t wait to purchase NO4!!
