I have neither brush nor comb in my house, but I do have a picture from before I went CG, when I still did brush regularly. Freshman year of high school. So awkward!

For reference, my hair curly at about the same length:

Wow! Those are quite the poofs!

I don't own a brush anymore (because of this thread, ironically)...so I'm finding it hard to take a picture.

Story related to this thread: Last night I was babysitting a very unruly three-year-old girl and she got out her ball-tipped paddle brush and kept trying to brush my hair. I took it out of its updo and told her she could touch it but I had to say "no brush, remember!" every 30 seconds. Sigh.

Before LHC I might have said to heck with it and let her brush just to see how big it would get, but knowing what I know now about ball-tipped brushes there was no way I was letting that near my head!

I took these pics for this thread today

ETA; Sorry, they're big!

I love the big hair I get when my hair is brushed out. I only wish it was that big with my natural curl pattern. Never to mind.

Even brushed out and big, it still looks good!

Heavens to Betsy! That's amazing!!! Yours might be the first in this thread to almost completely obscure the face!

Wowzer! Amazing brushed out hair!

OK I recently brushed out my hair, after being CO for 1.5 weeks, because I was being frustrated by stubborn frizz. This reminded me why I went CO in the first place! I used a tangle teezer brush.

As a kid, my mom would say I needed to brush my hair *5 minutes after I had already brushed it*. lol! Brushes = not good for curls!
