Its primary benefit is detangling without damage, reducing breakage, split ends, static, and frizz, while promoting scalp health and hair vitality.

FAQs
Can this brush be used on wet hair?
Yes, the TEK Big Oval Hair Brush is designed to be used gently on both wet and dry hair without causing damage or breakage.
How do I clean the hair brush?
Gently remove loose hair, then wipe the brush with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the brush in water or using harsh cleaning agents. Let it air dry completely.
What makes this brush anti-static?
The natural properties of the wood and the specific design of the bristles help to reduce static electricity in the hair, preventing frizz and promoting smoothness.
Is this brush suitable for sensitive scalps?
Yes, the wooden pins are designed to gently massage the scalp. However, always use gentle pressure, especially if you have a very sensitive scalp.
What does FSC 100% Certified Natural Woods mean?
It means the wood used in the brush comes from forests that are managed responsibly and sustainably, meeting strict environmental, social, and economic standards set by the Forest Stewardship Council.
How often should I use this brush?
For optimal results, daily use is recommended to stimulate the scalp, distribute natural oils, and maintain hair health and manageability.
Does the brush come with a warranty?
TEK products are known for their quality craftsmanship. Please refer to the product packaging or TEK's official website for specific warranty information applicable to your purchase.
Can I use styling products with this brush?
While the brush is designed to work with natural oils, using styling products is generally acceptable. Ensure the brush is clean before and after use if styling products are applied, and follow care instructions to prevent residue buildup.
Troubleshooting
Hair brush seems to be losing its shine or the wood looks dry.
This can happen with natural wood over time. Apply a small amount of natural wood oil (like linseed or almond oil) to the wooden handle and body with a soft cloth. Let it absorb, then wipe off any excess. Do this periodically as needed.
Excessive hair is getting stuck in the bristles.
Gently remove loose hairs after each use with a comb or by hand. Ensure you are not pulling the brush aggressively through tangled hair; detangle starting from the ends and working your way up.
The pneumatic cushion feels stiff or less flexible.
Ensure the brush is clean and free of debris that might impede the cushion's movement. Avoid exposing the brush to extreme temperatures, which can affect the rubber's elasticity. The ventilation hole should remain clear.
Product arrived with minor imperfections in the wood.
As the brush is handcrafted from natural wood, slight variations in grain, color, or minor surface marks are characteristic and do not affect performance. If the imperfection is significant, contact customer support.
