Product Description
One mould, three completely different products. This oval cushion brush runs in gold tortoiseshell, pastel stripe, and pearl white — and because the pattern comes from the acetate sheet rather than from tooling, all three cost the same to make and count toward the same minimum. For a brand launching a range rather than a single item, that is the whole point.
Three Colourways, Three Buyers
Gold tortoiseshell. Amber, black and gold layered through the sheet, so the figuring shifts as it catches light. This is the classic, and it is what sells into premium and gifting.
Pastel stripe. Pink, peach, lilac and blue laid up as vertical bands. Built for social and for younger retail — it photographs better than any other pattern we run.
Pearl white. A soft mother-of-pearl shimmer with almost no contrast. The quiet, clean-beauty option, and the one that suits a minimal packaging system.
All three run in the same 22 × 7 cm oval on the same tooling. A retailer can take one of each and present a three-SKU wall from a single production run — or take one and reorder the others once the first sells through.
Why the Pattern Goes All the Way Through
Cellulose acetate is made by layering coloured sheet and pressing it, then cutting the shape out of the block. The pattern is therefore inside the material, not printed on it. Two consequences matter commercially: no two pieces are identical, and the colour cannot chip, scratch off, or fade the way a sprayed or printed finish does.
It is also plant-derived, produced from wood pulp rather than petroleum, which is what lets it sit in a sustainability-positioned range alongside our bamboo and wooden lines.
Nylon Pins on a Vented Cushion
The head carries ball-tipped nylon pins on a vented rubber cushion. Nylon flexes, which makes this the wet-friendly member of our acetate brush family — it works through damp hair after a shower without the snapping that a rigid pin causes. The vent holes let the cushion compress and rebound instead of bottoming out.
If your positioning is scalp massage and separation rather than wet detangling, the same body is available with stainless steel pins — see the steel-pin version. For a boar-and-pin mix aimed at shine, see the dual bristle brush.
Retail Packaging Included in the Conversation
This brush is usually ordered with the clear-window retail box shown in the gallery, printed with your logo and hung or shelved as-is. Because the box is produced alongside the brush, the two ship together and arrive as a finished retail unit rather than something your warehouse has to assemble.
Barcodes, hang holes and multi-language backer cards are all standard. Packaging has its own lead time, so raise it at quoting stage rather than after the brush is approved.
Ordering
Mixed colourways count toward one MOQ tier, which is the cheapest way to test which pattern your market prefers. Send your target quantity and split to our OEM team and we will quote within 24 hours, or browse the full pattern library first on the cellulose acetate collection page.

Bristle & Pin Options
The bristle set changes the feel, the target hair type and the price. All four run on this same body, so you can switch without new tooling.
Anti-Static Stainless Steel PinSmooth ball-tipped steel pins that glide through wet or dry hair without static. The default on this brush.
Nylon Ball-Tip PinFlexible and forgiving — the gentlest option, and the usual pick for detangling and kids lines.
Pure Boar BristleNatural bristle that distributes scalp oils and adds shine. Best for fine to medium hair.
Boar & Nylon MixBoar for shine, nylon for grip — the combination for thick, curly, or textured hair.
Undecided? We will send one sample of each bristle type so you can compare them in hand before committing to bulk.

About Cellulose Acetate
Cellulose acetate is a plant-derived, biodegradable material made from wood pulp or cotton fibers. Unlike petroleum-based plastics, it breaks down naturally over time, making it an eco-friendly choice for premium hair accessories. Its unique properties allow for rich color patterns — from classic tortoiseshell to custom marble effects — that cannot be replicated with standard plastics.
As a manufacturer with 25+ years of experience, EcoHairFactory has mastered the intricate process of cellulose acetate production — from sheet selection and pattern matching to precision cutting and multi-stage hand polishing. Each piece undergoes 8–12 finishing steps to achieve the signature smooth, glossy surface that defines high-end acetate accessories.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. All three run on the same tooling, so mixed colourways count toward one MOQ tier. It is the cheapest way to test which pattern your market prefers.
No. Acetate is made by layering coloured sheet and pressing it, then cutting the shape from the block, so the pattern is inside the material rather than printed on it. There is no surface layer to chip.
Yes. The ball-tip nylon pins flex, which makes this the wet-friendly member of our acetate brush family. A rigid steel pin is the wrong tool for damp, knotted hair.
It is quoted alongside the brush and produced at the same time, so the two ship together as a finished retail unit. Barcodes, hang holes and multi-language backer cards are standard. Printed packaging has its own lead time, so raise it at quoting stage.
