Myster Wise Guy Agave Plant-Bristle Toothbrush
A white-pine handle with stiff agave plant-fiber bristles - the rare toothbrush that is both vegan and genuinely plastic-free, with no nylon and no animal hair.
The verdict: Plastic-free
Neither plastic nor animal hair anywhere. The handle is white pine and the bristles are agave (lechuguilla) plant fiber - a real plant bristle, not the castor-oil nylon that "plant-based" usually means. That combination is genuinely unusual: nearly every plastic-free brush uses boar or horsehair, so this is one of the only options that is vegan and plastic-free at once. The tradeoff is feel, not materials - agave fiber is stiff and less refined than nylon.
Verification: Manufacturer confirmed

A wooden toothbrush with a white-pine handle and agave plant-fiber bristles, shipped in an ink-free kraft box. The bristles are stiff as supplied and should be softened under hot water before the first brush; run them under hot water again if they feel harsh. Air-dry the handle upright so the wood doesn't sit wet.
