Spornette 955 Italian Double Bristle Boar Round Brush

I was looking for a brush that had the most amount of boar bristles and this one has tons!!! It really holds my hair well which makes it easier to style than any other brush I've used. Totally would recommend it!

I was introduced to this brush by my stylist 2 decades ago. My first brush was a recent victim of a bathroom renovation, so I had to replace it quickly. I have straight, fine hair, and this brush grips my hair and holds it perfectly in the bristles for styling with my hairdryer, without using products - and it stays all day. I started using this brush for that perfect smooth under curl for my 'bob' haircut. Now my hair is mid length and layered, and this brush is great for softening the layers and adding volume.

I had been looking for a boar-bristle round brush of this size and was excited to find it. Unfortunately I have been very disappointed with it because I am fairly sure the bristles are synthetic, and not BOAR hair bristles. Because the bristles are synthetic, they do not allow the hair to roll through the brush, rather the hair sticks and thus the brush is not good for its duty of round brushing. I am guessing the word boar is thrown into the label in a haphazard way to suggest that it is boar- bristle when it really isnt. I still use the brush, but it is certainly not worth the price paid, and was a disappointment.
