Gifting a hair brush might not seem like a go-to present, but this gentle, tug-free fully recyclable Tangle Teezer Plant Brush ($18) is so sustainably impressive that anyone would swoon over one.
Made from 85-percent sustainably sourced castor beans, the eco-friendly tool works wonderfully on all different hair types. (There are different versions depending on your hair, as well as different shades.) It also works on wet or dry hair to smooth and detangle, all while helping with frizz and flyaways.
As the brand explains, they went “bean to brush” on this one, turning sustainably sourced castor beans into “a high-performing, long-lasting eco hairbrush that will leave you with smoother and healthier-looking hair.”
