How to decide which brush to get, angled, tapered, flat top????

I did research and found that the angled top was good for contouring and the flat top was good for apply liquid foundation.

Actually, I would suggest getting all 5 brushes in the set. They r amazing. I love the flat top and the Angeled brushes. You save more money when u get the set.

These are interesting responses, with some "yes" and some "no." It makes one wonder whether two different brushes being sold under the same name (round versus square head) are of differing manufacture or whether there are two altogether different models of brush being sold. My round-head brush is, without any doubt whatsoever, one piece. You can see the single injection-molding line continuous completely around the brush.

I really prefer using a brush! the application is smoother and you can get a more even layer

It really is a matter of what you want it to do rather than type of hair. Combination of different bristles mixed work the best overall in my opinion. Size of brush is a matter of use as well. I have a regular size I keep in the bathroom and a small one for travel. Wonderful quality.

I went to an Oreck store here in Minnesota and bought a different kind of brush that I wanted. Google Oreck store for your state and then call them and ask if they have the kind you want. I love my Oreck because it has power but is light weight. I wish you the best.

I find using a very flat square brush , brushing from bottom to top gently works great

I bought replacement brushes on Amazon several years ago. It was clear which ones to buy. Have not checked recently to see what they are offering.

Hi Turtlesaver...thought I'd share with you this update on another flat iron. I took a chance and bought the Conair YOU flat iron....while it doesn't get super hot (two settings hi-lo)...it has "plates" that curve around the sides which seem to deal well with the rough ends issue. It works best if you've straightened your hair with a round brush and hair dryer first....which is what I typically do. If you're going from wavy to straight the Conair You won't be hot enough. The Infinity Pro I ended up returning it was awful. Here's the link to the other if you want to check it out :) Conair YOU Style Straightener Hi Turtlesaver...thought I'd share with you this update on another flat iron.

It depends on what you are using it for. the both have ups and downs to them. I prefer the angled ones as they can get into some tighter spaces. Hope this helps.

You can google image a brush guide but I would personally play with the brushes and see what you like using I only use like one or two for what their actuality meant for

The brush it self is tapered, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The top of the brush will get between just about any two teeth, but you may not be able to push it all the way between two teeth which are very close together.

I am wondering the same thing. A friend of mine picks up SIMILAR brushes and files them down to fit.....

As far as I know (and this is only an educated guess) all brushes should have a standard width around the place where the bristles come out from the handle. Thats pretty much the only point I could rest my brush with and it seems to work fine as such.

I would have to say in between. I, myself, prefer a medium and was rather pleased with these heads. Finding anything other than 'Fine' bristles (DDS preferred & recommended) has become a daunting task.

I really prefer the travel size. I have both travel and standard size brushes from Sigma and the travel size is just easier for me to handle and use. Hope that helps!

This is the better choice in my opinion, but you might be one brush short in either of the sets because of the finishing powder. I'd go for this one plus a kabuki brush for the powder.

Use the back end of the included brush. Took me a good while to figure this one out!
