This detangling brush has transformed our hair

We first saw this brush on Instagram. Within a few weeks, our first Blanket Hair Brush arrived from the United Kingdom to the offices of jcApotecari . Everything's ready for testing.

Seen from above, this beautiful, one-piece, impeccably finished white object resembles Apple's new mouse, with a sea urchin underneath. But the most surprising thing is how it bends. After months of testing it, we confirmed that our intuition was right: this was a unique brush that was set to revolutionize the market.

At jcApotecari, we try new products every day, but we've never seen anything like this before. And when that happens, we can't wait to introduce it to you, for it to arrive at your homes, for you to try it, and enjoy it as much as we do.

The stories behind each product can make it even better. That is certainly the case with Blanket .

As a team we love to know the inspiration and the concerns of other founders, but as experts we know that the stories behind each product can make it even better. That is certainly the case with Manta . Since its founding, this small family business has donated more than 1,400 toothbrushes to the charity. The Little Princess Trust which provides real hair wigs to young people, boys and girls who have lost their hair due to cancer treatment or other illnesses.

But before that, Manta was born as a gift from Tim Binnington to his wife, who was undergoing chemotherapy. The British hairstylist saw how difficult it was for her to brush due to the fragility of her locks, so he put all his effort into creating something that would effectively detangle, yet be as gentle as sliding your fingers through your hair. In other words: something that would work like an extension of your hand.

"Its success lies in its innovative design. There's nothing like it; it's like an extension of your hand. As gentle on your hair as a finger massage."

Thanks to its distinctive design and Ergonomic , Manta Hair Brush adapts perfectly to the shape of each hand and scalp, minimizing friction between the bristles and the hair. In addition, its patented technology FLEXIGUARD™ allows the bristles to move 360° to gently loosen tangles and allow for easy brushing. It's an absolute game changer , especially for those with fine, delicate, and brittle hair.

HOW TO USE BLANKET?

1. On wet hair

Manta is the best detangler From jcApotecari. After showering, your hair is clean and damp, in perfect condition for brushing. But who hasn't had the unpleasant sensation of seeing a ball of hair after brushing? In my case, it was very common, and after switching to Manta, the amount of hair on my brush has decreased by at least one. 50% . And, with conventional brushes, hair is more likely to be damaged and broken. Specifically, what helps make that difference is Manta's flexibility, which can be bent into a "U" shape, preventing pulling and allowing it to gently massage the hair.

For those of you with long hair, this is a marvel. Wrap your Manta around the strand and gently pull downward. All the bristles will pass through your hair; it's a 360-degree detangler.

Tip jcApotecari: Apply the conditioner from mid-lengths to ends and then brush your hair.

2. On dry hair

You can use it to brush dry hair. To restore shine and softness, smooth it from the scalp to the ends. To add volume, hold your head upside down and brush from the nape of your neck to the top.

3. With a hairdryer

Yes, you can also use it with your hairdryer. This patented brush resists up to 80°C temperature . It works really well, and you can achieve a smooth finish in half the time of using a flat iron!

4. As a scalp treatment

This is probably the one that has had the greatest impact on me (the fact that cranial massages are my favorite may have something to do with it…). Tim tells us that “the more you can increase blood flow to the hair follicles, the more growth and healthier your hair will be.” And we can achieve this through scalp stimulation, also known as massage.

With Blanket You have two ways to do it: in the shower , slide your Blanket all over the head, so that the blood flows and eliminates the impurities that make the hair look dull and opaque.

Or with the dry hair , start at the nape of the neck and brush upwards, then slide your Blanket across the surface of your head with gentle dragging movements. This will relax you, relieve tension, and increase blood flow.

“Where Manta Hair Brush really works "It's at the follicle level. The differences I've seen in the thickness of my clients' hair are incredible. Try this for a week and you'll see the difference."

If you don't have time for a full massage session, you can simply press the brush against your scalp. Start at the nape of your neck and push down firmly, then lift up, move to the next section, and repeat.” Tim compares it to a acupuncture mat , stimulating the skin and relieving tension with each pressure.”

Blanket It is available in 4 colors (black, white, pink and blue). At jcApotecari, exclusively.
