Hum. This thread seems to lack discussion of brushes.
Alright, so I'm a guy with long hair, and I have two hair brushes because of it. The one was getting staticy -- that time of the year -- so I went out and bought a new one.
Both are the plastic kind with the beady heads, but the older one is definitely higher quality. If you press the tips, they bend inwards... rubber or something underneath the tip thingies. Sorry that I don't know what the actual terminology is called. Anyway, the tips will bend in, and I don't notice the brush at all. However, my newer one doesn't have that, the tips just stay straight... and it does hurt to brush my head with that one.
So I imagine that the same can be said of feet. I'd try both if I had a lee, to find out, but I imagine that my older one will tickle a lot more just because it gives way. If that makes sense.
I wonder if that made sense at all. I don't know much about hair brushes, apparently.
-Etc.
