 All the Wings haters...hears your space to vent and bash!? I'd like to know the reason behind why a lot of people hate the Red Wings. Now I can see getting upset at your OWN team if they lose to them, but what's your reason? They're not dirty, and they're one of the classiest organizations....so.......why? Just like everyone hates the Patriots, because they continue to lead their division and conference every year. It stems back to when they used to spend outrageous amounts of money to build a team no one could compete with. With the salary cap everyone expected them to drop back to the pack, and to a point they have. They have learned to use their farm system as of late to groom great players. Its basically a *hate the winners* thing for most part. |

Which Hair Brush Is Right For You?
Hairbrushes come in hundreds of styles, materials, designs and grades. A low-end plastic brush costs as little as $1 and a hand-tied boar brush as much as $100. The average price for a decent brush is from 10 to 20 dollars. Knowing what brushes to purchase begins with comprehending the difference in bristles (boar, nylon, porcupine, and metal) as well as the four basic categories of brushes (vented, cushioned, round, and classic). Other than that, choosing a design really depends on your style of doing hair.
Types of bristles:
A number of bristle patterns are available and they're used for different purposes, Each one is designed to create different styles or to care for specific types of hair. Knowing their basic purposes helps you buy brushes that work for, instead of against, your hairstyling efforts.
In this article I will be covering two different aspects of brushes and there purpose, first the bristle type and secondly it's purpose, follow along, as I go through the list.
Bristle Type: Boar
This bristle is the actual hair of a boar (hog). Boar bristles are considered ideal because they close the cuticle layer the outside armor of your hair and create shiny hair. Because boar bristles tend to be weak, manufacturers usually mix them with nylon bristles, so they don't collapse while you're brushing through the hair.
Best On
Boar bristles are natural, soft, flexible bristles that gently brush the hair and are suitable for use on children. Manufacturers often combine boar with nylon bristles to create a stronger styling ability.
Bristle Type: Nylon
This name represents a catchall category for all types of bristles made of plastic, nylon, rubber, or similar materials. Nylon bristles can be soft and flexible or stiff and firm.
Best On
Nylon bristles offer little to maximum control, depending on how closely the bristles are placed and how flexible the material. As a rule, the stiffer and more closely spaced the bristle, the more control you have over the hair.
Bristle Type: Porcupine
Before you imagine quills running through your hair, calm down. Porcupine is a term used for a tufted bristle multiple bristles grouped together that usually includes a combination of boar and nylon bristles. It's gentle, but it exerts a good hold on the hair.
Best On
This design is excellent for controlling fine hair, as well as for thoroughly brushing thick hair right down to the scalp.
Bristle Type: Metal
Unless you're styling a wig, stay away from this category of bristles. Metal bristles even with soft plastic tips are too inflexible to safely use on human hair.
Best On
Not recommended for anything but wigs and hairpieces.
Looking to Add some style?
Trying to keep track of all the different styles of brushes can drive a perfectly sane person crazy, so you only need to be familiar with four basic categories: classic styling, cushioned, round, and vented. To be able to style any hair that comes your way, you should have at least one brush from each category. The following sections show you which brush or brushes you need for specific hairstyles.
Vented brush
This brush is an old-style sensation that made Farrah Fawcett's wings take flight. The brush has widely spaced, flexible bristles. Openings in the head (where the bristles are attached) allow for good airflow. Today, vented brushes are primarily used for drying hair because they offer superior airflow, making short work of moisture. Vented brushes maintain natural movement because their bristles never force the hair into a specific shape.
The ends of the sparsely spaced bristles have tiny, protective balls to guard against hair damage. Frequently check the tips of all your vented brushes. If even one ball is missing, the brush needs to be replaced because the exposed bristles can damage the hair and scalp.
Cushioned brush
This category of brushes includes the oval-shaped cushioned brush (padded head where the bristles are attached) for simply brushing out the hair and the flat paddle brush with an air cushion that's used exclusively for long hair. The latter is an invaluable tool, by the way, because the cushion and bristles are designed to collapse anytime they meet resistance; hence, they prevent long hair from being stretched, split, or broken.
Round brush
Many round brushes have wooden or plastic handles with a variety of grips that ensure good traction and fit your hand. Round brushes look exactly as named: They have a round, metal barrel for more defined movement. Use a round brush any time you want the hair to have some bend or curl, but not as much as curling irons or hot rollers would provide.
Shop this category of brushes carefully because many have heavy heads that put stress on your wrist while you blow-dry the hair. Many favorites are called thermal round stylers round brushes with vented cores made of aluminum. The metal barrel fills with hot air from the blow dryer, while the vented holes create plenty of air circulation. This design enables you to dry the hair in half the time and create a crisper hair shape. The one caution is to keep the blow dryer moving and check your handiwork frequently to avoid over-drying, or possibly damaging the hair.
Classic styling
Classic styling brushes have a half-rounded head. They traditionally have five, seven, or nine rows of stiff nylon bristles seven being the most popular. This style is referred to as a half round brush because the head of the brush has a rubberized, slightly rounded shape to create a slight bend in the hair. The classic styling brush is the tool of choice when creating smooth, sleek, precise hairstyles that aren't stick-straight.
Women often prefer to use a seven-row styling brush because it is lighter, smaller, and easier to handle when blow-drying hair. On the other hand, many men love to manhandle the hair by using a larger, nine-row brush that is wider, heavier, and styles a larger section of hair at one time.
This article was simply written with you in mind, I covered the different types of brushes and for what hair types they should be used for. However I have done my best to keep this article as short as possible ,it is up to you the reader, to now take action and use the information for your benefit.
