Review title is Brush is far too soft for me, but I only bought it for the handle. [SEP] I needed a long handle for a back brush with much stiffer bristles that would really SCRIB my back.<br /><br />This brush feels more like a soft hand sliding smoothly down your back rather than scrubbing it.<br /><br />So I threw the brush away and jammed the handle into an Eppco HU1310101 Heavy Duty Two Sided Hand & Nail Brush and I'm happy.  It has a smaller surface but the bristles actually scrub your skin.<br /><br />More expensive than I'd like, but it works for me.
