1. Beechwood Cutting<\/h2>\n

It all starts in France at a fifth-generation, award-winning manufacturer where planks of dry beechwood are cut into small, workable rectangles.<\/p>\n

2. Beechwood Shaping<\/h2>\n

After over thirty mechanical and manual passes, the rectangles are then rough cut and carved into the shape of our round brush.<\/p>\n

3. Handle Finishing<\/h2>\n

Then, the brush handles are sanded to smooth perfection before being lacquered, polished and glazed until they gleam.<\/p>\n

4. Cushion Drilling<\/h2>\n

In order for bristles to be inserted, holes are drilled into the rubber cushions that house them.<\/p>\n

5. Bristle Cutting<\/h2>\n

Depending on which brush is being made, natural or synthetic bristles are cut into the desired length.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

6. Cushion Assembly<\/h2>\n

The bristles are then mechanically inserted into the pre-drilled rubber cushions. Afterwards, all cushions are manually inspected to make sure that the bristle tips are frayed to perfection.<\/p>\n

Pro Tip:<\/strong><\/span> A high quality brush should feel worn in, even when new, so that it can properly grab onto hair and work its magic. Think of a great hair brush as a pair of perfectly broken in shoes.<\/p>\n

7. Final Assembly<\/h2>\n

A thin layer of glue is applied onto the handles\u2019 central section before cushions are inserted and set into place.<\/p>\n

8. Final Touches<\/h2>\n

The brushes then undergo one last glazing to ensure that they are all uniform.<\/p>\n

9. Prose Logo Stamping<\/h2>\n

Next, using an engraving and stamping machine, the Prose logo is printed onto the handles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

10. Customization & Packaging<\/h2>\n

Last comes the fun part when your brush is customized with your initials and packaged in its own special box, ready to be sent your way.<\/p>\n
