Goats Wool Wooden Baby Hairbrush
I was very pleased with the quality of this baby hairbrush! It has the perfect bristle softness, yet it’s stiff enough to actually brush. Even the most sensitive little babies would not be bothered by the gentle bristles.
The craftsmanship is amazing and the brush is pretty enough to leave out on a dresser or night table. It is a lot nicer than the synthetic/plastic brushes out there and the price is perfect for the quality.
100% natural brush from Haakaa keeps helps to prevent cradle cap, generate blood flow and remove dry skin all while keeping baby relaxed…they might even drift off to sleep.
