| Hey I got a hard brush but it feels too hard and I was thinking about boiling it. I just wanted to know has anyone tried this and does it make the brush too soft or do anything at all? Give me comments and any other meths if applicable..... |

After about the fourth time doing it , it should be slightly softer permanently, and wassup wit all these quick question titles for a minute I thought it was a duplicate and was going to delete this. -------------

1-2 boils should do it or take that brush to the shower with you to break it in until you feel it's soft enough. -------------

If you need a hard brush, buy a hard brush.
If you need a medium brush, buy a medium brush.
If you need a soft brush, buy a soft brush. ------------- DUB-C |

Umm thanks for the concern but I don't think you read my post thouroughly so lets reiterate... I said its a hard brush but its too hard (even if my hair is high and the medium aint cuttin it) I know the difference from a softee, medium, and hard brush.... I was just simply trying to find out if there was a way to break it out of that real hard have ya head poundin mode ya dig....

I had the similiar problem. I just got my head used to it. over time the bristle got a lil softer. My brush was like porno star hard, now its like 3rd round hard. Just play with it ------------- [IMG]http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/Gristyle/84497587_l.gif" /> I eat waves like cake 360 DEEP! |
