Would you let a colleague borrow your hairbrush?

Yes, if they asked as a one off. I’d be annoyed if they were asking every other day but for a one off no problem. Doesn’t feel particularly unhygienic to me, it’s easy to clean. Not like a toothbrush - that’d be a no!!

Yes, without a second thought. Never thought of a hairbrush as that intimate that it was any kind of issue. It's not like a toothbrush.

It happens in my work every day, genuinely - you always hear someone asking if anyone's got deodorant, a hair brush or hair ties.

I've never had any issues lending or borrowing a brush - I've come across head lice a grand total of twice in my life and both were through young children, not other adults borrowing a brush.
