Jungle Culture’s bamboo hairbrush (and comb)

Jungle Culture bamboo hairbrush is designed for all hair types, with a pressured paddle surface and soft bristles to brush your hair wet or dry, without irritation.

Avoid boar bristle brushes for animal welfare reasons. Also avoid tortoiseshell (illegal) in combes. Instead, choose bamboo, wood and metal.

Where to recycle plastic hair accessories

Salons, offices and schools can order a Terracycle Hair & Body Care Waste Box (a one-off pooled fee) to then send back using the prepaid postage, to get plastic hair goods out of your town forever).

You can include non-pressurised hair sprays (recycle empty pressurised cans, take half-empty ones at your council’s hazardous waste department).
