Tips

Something to consider before buying a hair brush:

Do you prefer a soft or hard texture to the brush? Amazon reviews report this brush to have a soft texture. This could be ideal for children or others with sensitivity. It might not work great for people whose hair tangles easily or is curly.

How to make

If you are handy this product could be made at home using a brush, curved PVC piping and duck tape. Insert the brush into the PVC pipe and use the tape to secure them together. You will need to make sure you find a thin hairbrush handle so that it fits within the PVC piping. Other ideas include using a curved paint brush or a swiffer duster handle. Check out my demo!
