The brush is soft but doesn't actually brush [SEP] I have fine to almost medium hair that's thin (but is growing back). My hair broke off badly so I've looked for ways to be as gentle as possible with it and keep it healthy. I wanted to love this brush but it was no good. It didn't feel like it brushed my hair at all. It seemed more like passing the brush over my hair vs brushing my hair. Unfortunately, that won't work for me as I need something that brushes. I ended up getting the Wet Brush and LOVE it, it feels SO good and it's inexpensive.
