Acca Kappa Military Style Brush

One of my favorite things to use when I travel is the Acca Kappa Military Style Hair Brush. Every since it was featured in a GQ article, the company has had trouble keeping it in stock. In the article Scott Schuman wrote: "Ever wonder how guys like Cary Grand and Errol Flynn got such shiny hair? I did, until I bought this Acca Kappa brush, which creates a natural sheen on its own. I think it has something to do with how close together the bristles are and how this allows light to reflect off one's hair."

It's a product I've come to use regularly that I own two: one for home and one for travel. The brush is made of Kotibe wood and pure boar bristles which tend to be stiff. Acca Kappa indicates the brush is designed to stimulate the scalp and polish the hair shaft.

The product can be purchased at Acca Kappa's flagship store at the Venetian's Grand Canal Shoppes in Las Vegas or from the Acca Kappa online store. The brush costs $34 and is also available in white bristles. The brush is also available on amazon.com (price varies).

Visit shopaccakappa.com for more information. I've recently discovered the company's Cedar (Cedro) scent for men available for $64 (3.3 oz) in-store and online. It is made with essential oils of cedar wood distinguished by its fresh balsam notes of cedar and moss.
