In our professional dry body brush range, we use the finest Mexican Tampico for the bristle fill which is preferred by therapists and experienced body brushers for dry body brushing treatments. Cactus is the firmest type of bristle available and is the most effective. If you are new to body brushing try light strokes first and build up to harder strokes as the skin gets more used to it. For very sensitive skins it may be preferable to start with a softer natural bristle brush and work up towards the coarser cactus. The bristles on this brush have been specially cut in a curved shape for easy all over brushing. This brush is ergonomically designed with a hand strap for extra control and easy sweeping motions.
