This is the one. Trust me. It's the one. Oh BTW, It's the one.

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2018

It's solid. Looses a few bristles when new. Sure you could get a defect like anything else that manufactured but odds are you won't. It's great. I'd buy it again if I ever needed another boar bristle brush. It'd be a great gift too. Comes nicely packaged and has a nice contour to the hand while brushing.

That may sound kind of silly but how a product feels to use matters as much as how well a product works if it's something you use with your hands (go and find a crappy keyboard and you'll agree). Just be sure you're not expecting a brush to do the job of a comb. It' works great on beards of all lengths and can even brush a nice wavy pattern into my goatee.

It's soft enough to never irritate my face as it passed my timed 10 minutes of non stop beard brushing test yet firm enough to push the hairs straight.

Highly recommend, everything branded "Hundred Beard Co," I have bought has been outstanding. My fav brand for grooming products.

Long/thick beards need not apply.

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2017

I was on the hype train for it being my first beard brush. the packaging is basic cardboard (not that it matters, you throw it away -and for the price what do you expect?), the final product is intact, and now after using it every day for months, I can give it a proper review: this brush is not for thick beards. it will penetrate maybe 1/2" into your beard to kind of shape the direction it's going, but if you've got a thick beard/long beard, the bristles will not penetrate and brush your oil/balm into the rest of your beard. it WILL touch your skin and you will feel the bristles gently massage, but past your chin you're out of luck. the bristles aren't stiff enough to brush out the lower layers of your beard. ideal for much shorter beard lengths.

Quality brush with nice soft bristles.

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2017

Verified Purchase

Read the reviews. Some bristles fall out. Read the message from the seller. Bristles fall out the first few uses. Then they stop. This is a natural boar bristle beard brush. If you've ever bought a boar brush before, you know some bristles come out. I have a top quality one for my hair and it was the same. Stopped after a few uses, and it's been perfect for the last several years. This boar brush is no different. I've been using it everyday for a couple weeks now; the bristles stopped coming out after the first week.

One comment; SOFT! this is so soft it feels great on the face. My hair boar brush is stiffer as it should be to remove skin (sebum). This is for your face, and it's quite soft. Brush before shower. Put on beard oil or balm after shower and brush in. My wife loves how soft my beard has become with using this brush.

Attractive brush at a good price

Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is my first beard brush so I don't much to compare it to, but it looks likes nice quality and has worked well for a few weeks. Its relativly light weight. The bristles are more coarse and stiffer then a typical hair brush and do the job of taming my beard. For the price I was skeptical it was really natural bristles at first. Being a little obssisive about details like this, I heated up a loose bristle and it burnt like hair, not melted plastic...for what ever that's worth.

Have noticed a big difference in my beard after using a boar bristle brush! (4 months growth)

Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2017

Verified Purchase

I bought this (along with a beard shampoo), as I noticed I was having some beardruff despite the fact I would apply beard oil after my showers and at night, to try and soften my beard. After some research I realized I was making the mistake of not brushing it in, as my comb was doing ok but I needed to invest in a quality brush. My package arrived quickly, and I was anxious to try out my new products. After showering (to test out new shampoo) and brushing, I have noticed a difference. I know its only been a day, and I don't want to jump the gun, but this morning I brushed my beard again and just from using a boar bristle brush, I have noticed everything wants to lay better. My beard also feels softer, surprisingly, which is probably due to the fact all the hairs are probably more uniform.

I have noticed some of the bristles falling out, even after my first use, but it isn't catastrophic. Only a few bristles here and there. I read the reviews prior to purchasing and it's common for a new brush to lose some bristles. If my brush suffers any serious loss, I'll update this review. That said, if it's been a while since I posted this, you can be damn sure this thing is still doing its job! Hope this review helps you in deciding on whether or not to purchase this brush or another boar bristle brush.

Stiff boar bristle Brush

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2019

Verified Purchase

I purchased this brush because I liked my brothers so much. Works great, bristles are stiff and a bit scratchy--which i actually really enjoy. Brushes both my short beard and long handlebar mustache (actually more of an english if you're familiar) wonderfully . The box it comes in is heavy duty and really nice. normally i would just discard any packaging, but it was so nice i keep my brush in it. Super shocked this brush is priced as low as it is. 1/4 the cost of other brushes without any obvious reason.
Fairly large in size if you want one for travel you might look elsewhere.

With only a few minutes brushing in the morning my beard looks nice and neat

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

I have been using this brush for about a week and a half and I can say that this brush was exactly what I was looking for to help maintain my beard. It is firm enough to help manage unruly hairs yet soft enough not to irritate the skin. With only a few minutes brushing in the morning my beard looks nice and neat. Additionally, my wife has said my beard is getting softer as I continue to brush with it. I also haven't had any issues with it shedding bristles like I have with others.

I have also read reviews commenting on the brush's smell. Mine had a slight smell on opening but leaving it out on my bureau over night fixed that.

If you are looking for a good basic beard brush look no further. It does the job and then some.

This Brush Feels Oh So Good

Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

I've been using this brush for about a month now, as part of a regimen to tame my beard so I can grow it longer without looking like a half-crazed, deep woods-dwelling terrorist. It remains to be seen if I shall be successful in this endeavor. Suffice it to say, however, that I am very happy with this brush. Other than maybe a half-dozen bristles as expected, I didn't have the problem of lots of bristles falling out like some people have reported. Speaking of the bristles, they're stiff enough to get the job done yet soft enough that it feels really good to use it. I have, in fact, brushed my beard just for the pleasant feeling of it, as opposed to the regular intended use which is to apply various products to my facial hair. Since I'm on the subject of tactile sensations, the brush itself feels very good in the hand. The oval shape of its wooden handle fits nicely within my palm and fingers, and it's easy to hold the brush whether I want to stroke using the long dimension of the brush, like my beard, or using the short dimension of the brush, like on my mustache. It comes in a nifty little box that at first I wasn't sure what to do with. I wondered 'Do I really need to keep this? I don't think I need to store the brush in this for daily use, do I?' But then I traveled for Thanksgiving and it was nice to put it in that box and not worry about the bristles getting damaged or bent out of shape while in my luggage, or risk the possibility of transferring oils onto other things in there. I'm giving this five stars because I like it and am glad I purchased this brush, and would buy it again if I needed to.

Good brush, weird smell

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2017

Verified Purchase

The brush itself is pretty good quality. Others have said the hairs fall out consistently - that didn't happen with me. A few hairs did fall out with the first couple uses, but it was less than 10 hairs. That's got to be normal with any brush like this.

Only reason for 1 star deduction is the smell. I've never owned a boar bristle brush before, so that may be par for the course. But it is a relatively strong, unpleasant odor. And the more you use it to brush in a beard cream or an oil, the smell changes. Not necessarily for the better. I've tried rinsing with water and letting it dry. I've tried a very mild soap. Maybe that's why other brushes supplement with synthetic fibers. It's not a strait up bad smell, like trash or poop. But it is a weird, unenjoyable one. Like the smell you might get if you heated up a dog biscuit after someone used the microwave for French food or something.

Bristles are just right firmness. Goldilocks would approve.

Werth it (Go Nats)

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2018

When I bought this a year ago it was a Huntsman Boars Hair brush, brown back, with the word Huntsman on it. I assume Hundred Beard Co. has taken over? I was lead here by my order link, so that is where the assumption is.
Pros:
Brush is never to stiff, perfect to shape and brush a longer beard. I run close to Sea Captain for those who understand.
Doesn't scrape, comfortable in the hand, works really well.
Easy to clean, doesn't fall apart.
Cons:
None

I've been using it for a year and it is a good brush, I'm glad I bought it, and it was worth every penny.
Bonus: The box it was received in has been sturdy enough through all my travels over the year that it is still used.

I should easily get another year out of it before I purchase/repurchase another one.
