Written by Aspen Kennard
The Natural Boar Bristles on the Edge Styler® come in a medium firmness, but for those of us with edges more delicate than others, we've listed out a simple and easy DIY tutorial on how to soften them at home. Before getting started, make sure your Edge Styler® is clean. Then grab a few necessities for the project and lets get to it.
What you'll need:
- Baby Tress Edge Styler®
- Hot Water
- a heat-proof container
- a Towel
Step 1
First, pour about 1 cup of freshly heated water into a small mug or heatproof container. Just enough to submerge the bristles.
