If you value great quality hair care or find yourself fascinated by all the latest hair trends on TikTok, chances are you have been looking into equally high-quality hair tools to pair with your new care routines.
Tragically, not all hair products are created equal — especially those that are made from plastic and end up in landfills when they are finished.
Thankfully, the beauty industry has risen to the occasion magnificently with some vegan hair tools guaranteed to give you your best possible hair day while simultaneously keeping your carbon footprint small.

This vegan brush is especially transformative for those with medium length, curly hair for that perfect wet curl definition. Not to mention, the Vegan D3 Original Styler 7 Row comes in a variety of gorgeous colors guaranteed to be the centerpiece of your vanity. Don't forget to check out the rest of the Denman Brush vegan-friendly line as well.
Eva NYC Healthy Heat 2-in-1 Lavender Blowout Brush
Not only is the Eva NYC Healthy Heat 2-in-1 Blowout Brush beautiful, you can also recycle it via TerraCycle when you're finished! With a tourmaline-infused ceramic barrel and recyclable packaging, this blowout brush is gentle enough to use on any type of hair while also staying as eco-friendly as possible.

All Briogeo products are "consciously packaged" with sustainable materials and FSC Certified, meaning they come from responsibly managed forests.

Saya Designs The Vegan Brush
You won't want to miss out on the Saya Designs' Vegan Brush, which is made entirely with FSC certified beach wood and plant-based tampico bristles.
