Could a child handle this brush? My 4 year old grandson has short but somewhat coarse hair. Most children's "natural" brushes are way too soft.

first let me say this is a soft brush, but then im used to military style and compared to that its soft. a child should be able to handle the brush easily as the handle is fairly short and stubby. the grip of the handle is a bit less than 3 inches and approx. 3/4 wide at the base and a bit less then 3/4 inches thick. I have short hair and this brush works fine but it is not the type that makes your scalp feel like it got a rake run over it. all in all I would think it would work and you always have amazons guarantee. I hope this helped you

I would say so. I keep my head shaven (buzzed, not bald), but when I got this brush in, I was getting pretty shaggy and it sure did straighten things up nicely! I use it to groom my beard, which is very coarse and unruly, but this brush is gentle as well as effective. My friends have noted how good it feels to brush your skin with it. Hope this helps!

In my professional opinion as a barber, Yes! It's a great brush and a perfect tool to teach good grooming habits. They come in a hard and a soft brush. I myself use the hard, it's good for waves.

I have large hands (I'm 6' 2") and I find the handle slightly large and chunky (square edges)... that said, it's a decent brush for the price, but probably not appropriate for a four year old. HWSFS

This brush is a full size adult brush, it's comfortable for me. My hands aren't huge. I wear large size gloves.

I bought this for my 30 months old daughter and it's great for her. Yeah this will be ok for your grandson for about an year or two I guess. For his age I would recommend you to pay little more and buy one with an adjustable handle.

im bald, but my daughter has longer thinner hair... quality brushes.... defer to their website to get the appropriate brush

Quite honestly, the trimmer is not as heavy as you thought. However, the performance is a little bit rough. Your age shouldn't be an issue to handle the trimmer. P.S. " It is not as sharp as you think!!!" I hope my comment help you somewhat..... Good luck

We had an old one from Fuller Brush that we could not get a replacement head for. Too bad. This one doesn't swivel as well as our old one. It does pick up our Shetland Sheepdog'ss hair, but it is hard to shake it off. We wonder if the treatment is the reason and when we wash it that it won't pick up as well. I'd like to hear from Fuller Brush on that last comment. Oh, and they could fix the swiveling feature.

Yes, I would think so. My five year old is very intrigued by it every time I am using mine, but I don't think she is quite ready for one now. I will definitely get her one in a couple of years. The bristles are not to hard so no worries about the gum line. You know your child best, so you can better assess as to whether or not they are fit for a motorized toothbrush.

I used it for my 2YO. It was a fun motivation for brushing, but they were a little freaked out by the noise at first. I think it's intended for a little bit older kids...your call.

The firmness in this brush comes mostly how dense the hair is grouped. Compared to a toothbrush I'd say it's on the "soft" side.

Yes, this brush is wonderful for all hair types. I have thick medium length hair. One of my daughters has long coarse thick hair and my other daughter has long fine hair. We all have one and I would never use another brush! They are expensive but definitely worth the money!

Absolutely. In fact, I'm about to place an order for my child, who is 14 months old. He sees his older sister using one every morning and is completely fascinated by it. I should say, though, that I would be the one doing the brushing for him. The toothbrush itself is pretty heavy (well, at least heavier than your standard).

I am 61 years old and have fine but fairly thick hair. The Mason Pearson with not pull or break your hair when you brush through it. It is very effective but doesn't cause any damage. I have used one since I was in my 20's and I can assure you that it is one of the best brushes I have ever used. I have tried all brands and pure boar bristle brushes but the combination of the nylon/boar bristle far surpasses any I have used. Hope this helps you make your decision to buy one.

My 4 year old uses these brush heads with a Professional Care 1000. He doesn't like the 4000 model because it spins too fast.

bristles are harder than most brushes I have seen or used, but not so hard to be hurtful. I actually would love to find a stiffer solid piece bath brush, but in 20 years or so, this is the best I have found.

My daughter's hair is fine, so I'm not sure I can answer your question. However, after examining the brush again the bristled seem firm and sturdy. Instead of bending in response to tangled hair, the bristles seem to stand up well while de tangling without causing pain.

I'll be honest, I do not have much experience on the subject, this is my first set of makeup brushes, and the truth is that its bristles are super soft, and I have washed several times and have not dropped a hair. It's probable that they are 100% natural goat hair, but I guess someone with more experience can get us out of this doubt.

In my opinion, it would be safe for A CAUTIOUS PARENT to use on a 9 year old's hair. Use it on your first so that you will know how much heated this can get. Never allow it to be totally paused when doing his hair. I have also used this as a steamer on my face.

Yes the bristles are soft. I was afraid they would be rock solid like most curling irons. My hair is short and the barrel looks large but it works just great.
