not great for actual grooming good for a comforting brushing [SEP] probably only a good brush for soothing and coddling someone when brushing hair not a good tool to use if you want a well groomed head of hairbought this for my soft haired persian she loves this brush still need to use the wire brush for a good brushing she hates that wire brushi am glad i have this brush for her but it may be causing problems with mattingit is a pretty brush very nicely made i love the color the blue and beige color way is lovely that is not a good reason to buy
