TEK is always looking for combining to the latest technology discoveries a special attention to fashion in order to create glamorous and high-performance products.

Why use Tek brushes?

The FSC certificated handle and bristles do not rip hair and do not electrify it; the natural rubber cushion allows a soft and pleasant brushing, massages the scalp and reactivates the blood circulation, reinforcing the hair roots. Lot of brushes on the market are made with plastic materials and often in their production there are some manufacturing defects that can damage the hair. Moreover, plastic attracts electrostatic energy and so causes the creation of the "fluttering" effect on the hair. Being that plastic is a petroleum derivative it is also highly pollutant. The pins of the Tek brushes are perfectly turned and smooth, so they don't show those imperfections that can damage the hair. Tek is "Hand Made in Italy"; we fabricate everything entirely in Italy and our production criterion are controller and certificated, the attentive commitment of our collaborators make the Tek products able to maintain the higher quality standards.
