Himalayan Blue Bamboo Natural Biodegradable Charcoal Toothbrush Pack of 4 - Zero Waste Travel Refill - Eco-Friendly - Teeth Whitening Soft Medium but Firm Black Bristles - Bonus Gift E-book

After a week these seem to work just fine without falling apart like reviews of other brands. I brush softly but often (4+/day) while my husband brushes vigorously (2/day).He prefers a very hard toothbrush. I like a medium. I would say this brush is a soft medium. But, my husband hasn't complained and I don't mind it either. The handle does get a little more texture after a few days. I'm just going to sand the edges a tiny bit just make it a bit more comfortable. I don't mind making some compromises considering that I don't want to throw away yet another plastic toothbrush in 3 months knowing it will kill wildlife for 450 years. I have already thrown away over 100 plastic toothbrushes in my lifetime.Because the bristles are harder when dry I realized that it works best if I brush my tongue a little bit first and then move on to my teeth. Or, I use my tongue scraper first. The bristles seem a little too soft if I brush my tongue last. Overall, I feel like my teeth are just as clean as with a normal plastic toothbrush.2/22 bristles on my husband's toothbrush haven't started to curve yet, surprisingly!

I decided to switch to bamboo brushes, researched a couple hours and decided to trust this little company. I ordered Himalayan Blue on a whim, tired of reading too much, and really liked them! The feeling of bamboo material is weird at first, but after a couple days it felt normal. The bristles are neither too soft, nor too firm. After some weeks of brushing my teeth, I noticed they are actually getting whiter! We had some bristle hairs falling out once, but it wasn't a big deal, I am a tough brusher. I took them fully out with plices and that was it. I just got my second order of toothbrushes delivered, and they seem to have a new desing, so they should be better! I will keep ordering those.

Love the toothbrushes. However I’m giving it one less star because they used a HUGE thick plastic envelope that is not recyclable for a product that is meant to be more eco friendly. How hard is it to use a cardboard box or envelope?The package says it can be returned at an amazon location to be reused, however it’s an hour drive from me. Unreal.

I just could not abide throwing yet another used toothbrush away (one can only use so many as general cleaning tools). I searched for bio-degradable and "re-usable" and discovered there were options. None are perfect as all have nylon brushes, but I now only the brush head ends up in the trash. I'm saving the handles for reuse or composting. Also, this handle is perfect and, as opposed to those with laminated layers to create a more ergonomic looking handle, works for me and is better for the environment.

First impression is the handle feels very nice. The bristles are fairly narrow which provides an edge at the gum line but doesn't really contact both sides of the teeth when brushing straight down. It's soft enough without feeling too firm. I'll have to go through a couple of them to really see how I like them, and find out how well they hold up.

The bristles are firm enough to do a good cleaning. The handles are made of bamboo instead on non-degradable plastic. A great way to help keep the earth green.

Four-pack of toothbrushes made out of eco-friendly bamboo instead of plastic, so you feel like you're saving the whales or something. Each toothbrush has a different little plant symbol on the handle. I'm using the four-leaf clover one first because I'm part Irish/leprechaun. I think it's a four-leaf clover anyway, I don't know my plants. The bristles are soft so my gums didn't bleed. Fancy!

If you're wanting to buy these in order to preserve the planet, don't be an idiot like me and order individually from Amazon. They arrived in a plastic, non recyclable mailer. You do have to do some maintenance on these as the bamboo begins to dry during use.
