This is a narrow cushioned nylon and bristle brush. Made in real Beech wood with rubber inserts. This brush is ideal for grooming and smoothing medium-long hair. The nylon helps to penetrate thicker hair, whilst the bristle cleans, de-frizzes and promotes shiny looking hair. G B Kent & Sons Ltd, manufacturers of brushes since the eighteenth century, is one of the oldest established companies in Great Britain. Kent Brushes (as they are now more commonly known) was founded in 1777 by William Kent in the reign of George III. Kent holds a pre-eminent place in the history of brush making, with an unbroken record of excellence in the quality of its production which has been recognised by the granting of Royal Warrants for nine reigns.
