What kind of brushes do you all use for just everyday brushing?
The 2 we have for Nelson just seem crappy. He gets matted easily, hair is like cotton candy! And I want to brush the mats out before they get bad. And these brushes just don't seem to do anything. They kind of just brush the top hair, bristles don't go down like through the hair.
They are kind of like this.
Like this but for dogs. Like real soft bristles, like on a baby brush.
And this kind, only the black side. I can't use the metal side it just gets stuck in his hair (cotton candy) and I don't want to pull the skin. But the black side too just doesn't seem to do anything, it goes over the top and kinda makes him staticy...thats about it
So I was just wondering what kind do you all have and use, or recommend...like especially for hair that mats easily and is that cottony candy feel to it. What about slicker brushes? Like the softer plastic bristles, not those scratchy hard metal ones? Are those good?
