Natural Health Co Bamboo & Horsehair Toothbrush for Adults is a genuinely plastic free toothbrush made with a bamboo handle and natural horsehair bristles. It provides an alternative for anyone who wants to move away from both plastic toothbrush handles and the synthetic bristles still commonly found on bamboo toothbrushes.
The combination of bamboo and horsehair is what sets this toothbrush apart. While bamboo handles are now relatively easy to find, many bamboo toothbrushes still use nylon or other synthetic bristles. Natural Health Co instead uses natural horsehair, making the complete toothbrush plastic free from handle to bristles.
The horsehair is collected during the regular grooming of horses and is double sterilised before use. The natural horsehair bristles are pressure-anchored directly into the bamboo handle without glue, keeping the construction simple and avoiding an otherwise easily overlooked synthetic component.
Natural horsehair will soften with use and can also be softened before brushing by running the bamboo & horsehair toothbrush under warm water. After use, rinse it thoroughly and allow both the bamboo handle and natural horsehair bristles to dry properly between brushing.
The toothbrush and its packaging are plastic free. As the bamboo toothbrush uses natural horsehair bristles, it contains an animal-derived material and is not suitable for vegans.
Wet the bamboo & horsehair toothbrush and apply your preferred toothpaste. Brush gently using small, controlled movements, cleaning the outer, inner and chewing surfaces of the teeth.
After brushing, rinse the bamboo handle and natural horsehair bristles thoroughly, shake off excess water and store the toothbrush upright where there is good airflow. Allow the bamboo and horsehair to dry properly between uses rather than storing the toothbrush wet in an enclosed container.
The natural horsehair bristles will soften with use. For a softer feel, run the bamboo & horsehair toothbrush under warm water before brushing.
