If you appreciate a great hair brush, you will love this Jean Pierre Paris "Gigi" brush. I have been using Jean Pierre brushes for over 50 years, and consider them, hands down, the best brush of my lifetime. Made in France, this elongated format cushioned hairbrush features 7 rows of black nylon bristle tufts set in a pneumatic cushion. Nylon is a relatively stiff bristle material, ideal for hair thickness ranging from normal to very thick or coarse. Perfect for brushing dry hair or detangling wet hair. After decades in business, Jean-Pierre and family eventually retired from making brushes, but the Jean Pierre name remains synonymous with the most luxurious hairbrushes in the world.
