Like most women with natural hair, I was using a tooth brush to style my baby hairs. I got to a point where I thought to myself, this isn’t the answer. Not only is it not what the bristles are intended for, it just didn’t look good in any hair content I wanted to film. So I began my search for an elevated replacement.
While there are many edge brushes and combs on the market, I came across Baby Tress on twitter one day, and was immediately hooked. I bought one without thinking twice.
Baby Tress is a small black owned business that created a 3-in-1 Edge Styler Brush, that makes it easy to style your baby hairs any way you please. Available in 6 color ways, the $15 brush has a a comb to separate and smooth, natural boar bristles to swoop and shape, and a pointed tip for the finishing details.
What I love about the brush is how easy it is to use, as well as keep clean. Tooth brushes often get discolored and product build up attracts dust which shortens the life line of them. Because this is designed specifically for your hair, the bristles are spaced out far enough so you can thoroughly clean both the brush and comb ends. It also has a protective cap that you can use to keep dust particles out of the bristles.
Final Thoughts
If you want to upgrade your edge styling, I would absolutely recommend adding Baby Tress to your brush collection. As soon as they launch more colors, I’m planning on picking up a few more just to have as back ups.
