Review title is Two Kinds Of Bristles Set In Latex Base [SEP] Light purple handled brush has two different kinds of bristles (longer ball-tipped nylon and shorter boar bristles) set into a latex rubber cushion. When using it the 3/4" long nylon bristles gently touch the scalp while the 1/2" boar bristles run through my hair and help to smooth it and eliminate static .<br /><br />The brush is about 3 1/4" by 9 1/2" with a large brush head of about 3" by 4 1/2" that makes quick work of brushing my hair.  The latex base flexes somewhat in use and makes it very comfortable with no scalp irritation.<br /><br />It has a flat lavender colored  handle with a matte finish that helps maintain grip.
