Most brush bristles are made of boar and/or plastic.  I'm not familar with lead bristle brushes.  But if your uncomfortable with your brush, get a new one of a different brand.

Brushes aren't that expensive, so throw it out and buy a new one. You can also take it back.
CHANGE ON THE WAY !!

Not true.  He brought it from his local Korean-owned black beauty shop.  Just try to get a refund or exchange at one of those shops, lol.

The brush wouldn't have lead in it. You might be overreacting. The brush should be fine after you soak it in boiling water.
