Is this good for detangling? I'm concerned the nylon bristles may not be gentle enough.

this brush has boar bristles, and i only use it on dry hair; if your hair is of any length, i don't think it would be a good detangler-not like a pick or wide comb.

I have a lot of very long hair. It is the only brush that will detangle them when dry. It does it easily ( considering the task) with little breakage. My only complain is that after brushing they are frizzy (I use moroccan oil after)

I haven't had a problem with this at all. I don't use this to rub back and forth. I use it as steady pressure til the knot loosens a little.

Yes, spray detangler on a comb or brush. Holding the top, carefully brush to untangle. Now you will lose some of the curl, set you curling iron on its lowest setting and recurl. You can also put in rollers. Really very easy. Don't be scared. Good luck!

I rarely put my hair in a tight roll where I need to retract the bristles, so I haven't had it happen. I do more of a roll and pull.

No, the brush does not detach while styling. It is pretty stable in that respect.

hi. I found a great solutions for "unwinding" hair (people and dogs) around the brush and around the wheels of the vaccuum. Go and get a sewing product called a "seam ripper". The concept is almost like a letter opener. Inexpensive. Better than unwinding the hair by hand or with a scissor. Let me know how you do with it.

Yes. The first two or three uses were not as comfortable as later uses. I am very pleased with the brush.

I just wiggled it around and kept pulling, but I got lucky and none of the prickly things didn't break off. So be careful!

I don't use it much on jewelry per se, but the wire-wound grips of some of my medieval swords are fine braid, so I would imagine it is similar. I use a Q-Tip for these, and I remove excess with either an old toothbrush, a nylon gun-cleaning brush, or a stiff-bristle artist's #5(I think!) paintbrush. Excess is less of a problem if it's removed while still soft.

I just run my hands over the bristles quickly and lightly or use a vacuum hose. Don't wash it. You don't want the ends of the bristles to tangle or knot.

Yes, this will cut nylon webbing. There might be better tools for the job, though.

Its a metal roller with brush bristles coming out of it. If you look at what you are doing and be careful, I am sure it will be fine.

IDK. hot enough maybe, but the wire is thin, likely to break, or come loose if pushed too hard. There is a 'knife' type that might be better for that application, although I'd wonder about using sharp sewing shears, then melting the end if this is the nylon cord with frizzy end I recall.

check to see if you have the canvass caught in the zipper. you can usally this this unstuck my tugging with a pair of needled nosed pliers.

I think if you were careful. It gets everywhere just out of the tip. I would use a toothpick to more finely control. Dries fast. Not sure how strong it is, I use it for braiding satin cord.

I would be concerned due to the nylon gearing. It may tell you can but looking at reviews prior to my purchase, I do not believe ita the best choice.

It will get entangled on the fringe, as well as a regular vacuum would. I don't know how much damage it would do to the fringe. If it gets entangled. it will shut down if it can't get unstuck. If the fringe delicate and not knotted well, I assume it would pull some of the fringe out. However as I said, normally if the brush gets entangled, it will shutdown and set there and beep until you untangle the bursh. It also does not like little thin flimsy throw rugs. It will get entangled on the edges.
