Hat Brushes

Post by Indiana Croft »

I just bought from Todds (due in some time this week) it only cost 1.99 plus 5.00 S&H.

Question is this. Does anyone else have this brush and what is there opinion. Is there a better hat brush that I should consider.

And one again just for good measure: you brush it counter clockwise on top and clockwise on the bottom. Or do I have it backwards.

I don't know about the brush in question, but yes, you're correct in the brushing directions....counter clockwise on top, clockwise under the brim.
