Description

The present invention relates to a hairbrush.

A hairbrush has a large number of hair strands planted on a base that is connected to a handle. The hair bundles are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the base to form hair bundle rows, and a plurality of hair bundle rows are provided in the width direction of the base.

In the hair brush of Patent Document 1, a central bristle row is provided as a bristle row at the center in the width direction of the base, and side bristle rows are provided on both sides of the central bristle row. There is. The pitch interval of the bristle bundles in the central bristle row is smaller than the pitch interval of the bristle bundles in the side bristle rows. According to this hair brush, when brushing hair, the hair is smoothly guided from the side bristle rows with a large pitch interval to the central bristle row with a small pitch interval. By passing the hair through the central row of brush bristles, it is possible to thoroughly comb the hair. Therefore, for example, it is possible to obtain a straightening effect that straightens the hair.

Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-345894

By the way, when brushing hair with a hairbrush, hair bundles (hair bundles) that are hardened due to curls, etc. pass through each hair bundle row in turn. When brushing with the hair brush of Patent Document 1, the hair strands first pass through the side brush bristle rows, and then are guided to the central brush bristle row. Here, as mentioned above, since the pitch interval of the hair bundles in the central brush bristle row is small, there is a risk that the hair bundles may get caught between the hair bundles when passing through the central brush bristle row. be. In that case, brushing cannot be performed smoothly.

Therefore, as a countermeasure to the above problem, it is conceivable to form the bristle bundle of the hair brush from a soft material. In this case, when the hair bundle passes through the central brush bristle row, the hair bundle tends to fall down, thereby making it difficult for the hair bundle to get caught.

However, if the hair bundle tends to fall down, it may be difficult to obtain a straightening effect when the hair passes through the central brush bristle row. Therefore, it can be said that the hair brush of Patent Document 1 still has room for improvement in terms of obtaining straight hair.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its main purpose is to provide a hair brush that can suitably straighten hair.

In order to solve the above problems, the hair brush of the present invention has the following features:
A hair brush in which a brush base is provided with a plurality of protrusions made of hair bundles or pins,
A plurality of protrusion groups in which the protrusions are arranged in rows in the longitudinal direction of the brush base are provided in a cross direction intersecting the longitudinal direction,
The plurality of protrusion groups include:
a first protrusion group located at an end in the intersecting direction among the plurality of protrusion groups;
a second protrusion group;
a third protrusion group disposed on the opposite side of the first protrusion group with the second protrusion group in between;
Contains
In the first protrusion group, protrusion-free regions where the protrusion does not exist are formed at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction over the entire length range of the first protrusion group in the cross direction. The protrusions are arranged,
The distance between the protrusions adjacent in the longitudinal direction with the non-protrusion region in between in the first protrusion group is the same as the distance between the protrusions adjacent in the longitudinal direction in the second protrusion group and the third protrusion group. It is larger than the distance between the protrusions,
The protrusions constituting the second protrusion group are formed to be softer than the protrusions constituting the third protrusion group,
The third protrusion group has a plurality of third protrusion rows in the intersecting direction in which the protrusions are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction,
The positions of the respective protrusions constituting the third protrusion row in the longitudinal direction are the same in each of the third protrusion rows.

According to the present invention, the protrusion group in which the protrusions made of hair bundles or pins are arranged in rows in the longitudinal direction of the brush base (hereinafter referred to as the longitudinal direction of the base) is arranged at an intersection that intersects with the longitudinal direction of the base. Multiple locations are provided in each direction. These plurality of protrusion groups include a first protrusion group located at the ends in the above-mentioned intersecting direction, a second protrusion group, and a side opposite to the first protrusion group with the second protrusion group in between. and a third group of protrusions arranged therein. In this case, when brushing hair with the hairbrush, the hair passes through the first protrusion group, the second protrusion group, and the third protrusion group in this order.

In the first protrusion group, which serves as an entrance for hair during brushing, the protrusions are arranged so that protrusion-free areas where no protrusions are present are formed at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction of the base. The distance between adjacent protrusions across the non-projection region in the first protrusion group is larger than the distance between adjacent protrusions in the second protrusion group and the third protrusion group. In this case, when brushing, hair strands (hair strands) that have hardened due to curls or the like can be easily inserted into the non-projection region. In addition, since the protrusions constituting the second protrusion group are formed to be softer than the protrusions constituting the third protrusion group, hair strands that have entered the non-protrusion area can be easily transferred to the second protrusion group. can lead. Then, the guided hair bundle can be loosened by the soft protrusions of the second protrusion group. This makes it difficult for hair strands to get caught, and as a result, brushing can be performed smoothly.

The third protrusion group has a plurality of third protrusion rows in which protrusions are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base. In this case, the hair loosened in the second group of protrusions passes through each third row of protrusions in the third group of protrusions. Further, in each third protrusion row, the positions of the respective protrusions constituting the third protrusion row in the longitudinal direction of the base are all the same. In this case, when the hair passes through each third row of protrusions, the hair passes straight in the direction in which the third rows of protrusions are lined up. Therefore, it is possible to secure a long distance for straightening the hair. Furthermore, since the protrusions constituting the third protrusion group are formed harder than the protrusions constituting the second protrusion group, when the hair passes through the third protrusion group, the protrusions are affected by the force of the hair. This can prevent it from falling over. Therefore, it becomes possible to straighten the hair.

As described above, according to the hair brush of the present invention, it is possible to suitably obtain straight hair.

(a) is a side view of the hair brush viewed from the width direction of the brush base, (b) is a front view of the hair brush, and (c) is a side view of the hair brush viewed from the longitudinal direction of the brush base. It is a diagram. FIG. 2 is an enlarged front view showing a brush base on which hair bundles are planted. A front view showing the flow of hair when brushing with a hairbrush.

An embodiment embodying the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1A to 1C, the hair brush 10 includes a brush base 11, a handle 12 connected to the brush base 11, and a plurality of bristles implanted in the brush base 11. A bundle 13 (corresponding to a protrusion) is provided. The brush base 11 and handle 12 are integrally formed of resin material. Note that the brush base 11 and handle 12 may be formed of other materials such as a wood-based material.

The brush base 11 is formed in a substantially rectangular plate shape, and more specifically, it is formed in a substantially rectangular plate shape extending in the length direction of the handle 12. The brush base 11 has a bristle bundle 13 implanted on one plate surface 11a (hereinafter referred to as a bristle surface 11a). The brush base 11 is formed into a gentle curve so that the bristle-planting surface 11a is concave. Specifically, the brush base 11 (flocked surface 11a) has a curved shape when viewed from the width direction (see FIG. 1(a)), and also has a curved shape when viewed from the longitudinal direction (see FIG. 1(a)). (see (c)). Each bristle bundle 13 protrudes and extends parallel to each other from the flocking surface 11a, although the flocking surface 11a is curved. In this case, each hair bundle 13 extends in a direction perpendicular to the bottom of the concave hair planting surface 11a.

Each bristle bundle 13 includes a plurality of bundled brush bristles 15 and 16. These bristles 15 and 16 include a plurality of bristles 15 made of animal hair and one bristle 16 made of resin material. Each brush bristle 15 has the same length from the bristle-planting surface 11a. Further, the brush bristles 16 have a rounded tip with a spherical tip. The length of the brush bristles 16 from the bristle-planting surface 11a is longer than that of the brush bristles 15. Therefore, the tip side of the brush bristles 16 protrudes more than the tip of the brush bristles 15. Further, the brush bristles 16 are arranged, for example, at the center of each brush bristle 15. In addition, in FIG. 1(b), each hair bundle 13 is circular and only the outer edge is shown (this point is also the same in FIGS. 2 and 3).

Each hair bundle 13 includes a relatively soft hair bundle 13a (see FIG. 2) and a relatively hard hair bundle 13b (see FIG. 2). The brush bristles 15 (15a) of the hair bundle 13a are made of pig hair as animal hair. Further, the brush bristles 15 (15b) of the hair bundle 13b are made of boar hair as animal hair. Since pig bristles are softer than boar bristles, each brush bristle 15a of the bristle bundle 13a is softer than each brush bristle 15b of the bristle bundle 13b.

Next, the manner in which the bristle bundles 13 are arranged on the brush base 11 will be explained based on FIG. 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, the brush base 11 has a plurality of hair bundle groups in the width direction of the brush base 11 (in this embodiment 5) Yes. These hair bundle groups include a pair of first hair bundle groups 21, a pair of second hair bundle groups 22, and a single third hair bundle group 23. The pair of first hair bundle groups 21 and the pair of second hair bundle groups 22 are composed of hair bundles 13a, and the third hair bundle group 23 is composed of hair bundles 13b.

The pair of first bristle bundle groups 21 are arranged at both ends of the brush base 11 in the width direction, respectively. The pair of first bristle bundle groups 21 are located at both ends of the plurality (five) bristle bundle groups 21 to 23 lined up in the width direction of the brush base 11 in the same direction. The pair of second hair bundle groups 22 is arranged between each of the first hair bundle groups 21 and adjacent to each of the first hair bundle groups 21, respectively. Further, the third hair bundle group 23 is arranged between each second hair bundle group 22 and adjacent to each second hair bundle group 22, respectively. The third bristle bundle group 23 is arranged at the center of the brush base 11 in the width direction.

The plural (five) hair bundle groups 21 to 23 (more specifically, each hair bundle 13 of the hair bundle groups 21 to 23) arranged as described above are symmetrical in the width direction of the brush base 11 as a whole. The brush base 11 is arranged symmetrically in the longitudinal direction of the brush base 11. Note that the width direction of the brush base 11 corresponds to the "crossing direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the brush base". In the following description, the longitudinal direction of the brush base 11 is also referred to as the "base longitudinal direction", and the width direction of the brush base 11 is also referred to as the "base width direction".

Each first hair bundle group 21 (corresponding to a first protrusion group) has a hair bundle row 31 (corresponding to a first protrusion row) in which hair bundles 13a are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base in the width direction of the base. It has two columns. Each hair bundle row 31 of the first hair bundle group 21 includes a hair bundle row 31a adjacent to the second hair bundle group 22, and a hair bundle row 31a arranged on the opposite side of the second hair bundle group 22 with the hair bundle row 31a in between. and a hair bundle row 31b.

In the first hair bundle group 21, a hairless bundle region 25 (corresponding to a non-protrusion region) where no hair bundle 13 exists over the entire length range in the base width direction of the first hair bundle group 21 is located in the base longitudinal direction. The hair bundles 13a are arranged so that a plurality of hair bundles 13a are formed at predetermined intervals (more specifically, at equal intervals). In this case, the distances L1 and L2 between the hair bundles 13a that are adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base with the hairless bundle area 25 in between in the first hair bundle group 21 are the same as those of the hair bundles 13a that are adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base in the second hair bundle group 22. It is larger than the distance L3 between the hair bundles 13a, and also larger than the distance L4 between the hair bundles 13b adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base in the third hair bundle group 23.

The number Na of hair bundles 13a arranged between adjacent hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31a of the first hair bundle group 21 is equal to the number Na of hair bundles 13a arranged between adjacent hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31b. The number Nb of the hair bundles 13a is greater than the number Nb of the hair bundles 13a. Specifically, the number Na of the hair bundles 13a between the hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31a is one more than the number Nb of the hair bundles 13a between the hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31b. . The Na hair bundles 13a in the hair bundle row 31a are arranged alternately with the Nb hair bundles 13a in the hair bundle row 31b in the longitudinal direction of the base. In addition, among the Na hair bundles 13a in the hair bundle row 31a, the distance between adjacent hair bundles 13a is the same as the distance L3 between the hair bundles 13a in the second hair bundle group 22.

In the present embodiment, the number Na of the hair bundles 13a between the hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31a is two, and the number Nb of the hair bundles 13a between the hairless bundle regions 25 in the hair bundle row 31b is one. It is said that Therefore, between the hairless bundle regions 25, the three hair bundles 13a form a mountain-shaped hair bundle gathering portion 27. Further, the hairless bundle region 25 disposed between the adjacent hair bundle gathering portions 27 has a substantially trapezoidal shape in which the length in the longitudinal direction of the base becomes shorter as it approaches the second hair bundle group 22.

In the first hair bundle group 21, the hair bundles 13a are arranged as described above, so that the distance L1 between adjacent hair bundles 13a across the hairless bundle area 25 in the hair bundle row 31a is In 31b, the distance is smaller than the distance L2 between adjacent hair bundles 13a with the hairless bundle region 25 in between. Specifically, the above-mentioned interval L1 in the bristle bundle row 31a is the same as the interval between two bristle bundles 13a adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base with one bristle bundle 13a in between in the second bristle bundle group 22. Further, the above-mentioned interval L2 in the bristle bundle row 31b is the same as the interval between two bristle bundles 13a adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base with the two bristle bundles 13a in between in the second bristle bundle group 22.

Each second bristle bundle group 22 (equivalent to a second protrusion group) has a bristle bundle row 32 (equivalent to a second protrusion row) in which the bristle bundles 13a are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base in the width direction of the base. It has two columns. In each hair bundle row 32 of the second hair bundle group 22, the hair bundles 13a are arranged at equal intervals L3 in the longitudinal direction of the base. Each hair bundle row 32 includes a hair bundle row 32a adjacent to the first hair bundle group 21 and a hair bundle row 32b (corresponding to an adjacent protrusion row) adjacent to the third hair bundle group 23. . The hair bundles 13a forming the hair bundle row 32a and the hair bundles 13a forming the hair bundle row 32b are arranged alternately in the longitudinal direction of the base. The hair bundles 13a forming the hair bundle row 31a of the first hair bundle group 21 are arranged alternately with the hair bundles 13a forming the hair bundle row 32a in the longitudinal direction of the base.

The third bristle bundle group 23 (corresponding to the third protrusion group) includes a bristle bundle row 33 (corresponding to the third protrusion row) in which the bristle bundles 13b are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base in the width direction of the base. It has 3 rows. Therefore, in the third hair bundle group 23, the number of hair bundle rows 33 is greater than the number of hair bundle rows 31 in the first hair bundle group 21, and the number of hair bundle rows 32 in the second hair bundle group 22 is greater than the number of hair bundle rows 31 in the first hair bundle group 21. There are more than numbers. In each bristle bundle row 33, the bristle bundles 13b are arranged at equal intervals L4 in the longitudinal direction of the base. This interval L4 is the same as the interval L3 between the hair bundles 13a in the second hair bundle group 22 (hair bundle row 32).

The position of each hair bundle 13b constituting the hair bundle row 33 in the longitudinal direction of the base is the same in each hair bundle row 33. Therefore, it can be said that the third hair bundle group 23 has a plurality of hair bundle rows in the base longitudinal direction in which the three hair bundles 13b are arranged in series in the base width direction. Further, the hair bundles 13b forming the hair bundle row 33 and the hair bundles 13a forming the hair bundle row 32b of the second hair bundle group 22 are arranged alternately in the longitudinal direction of the base.

In the above-mentioned configuration, the brush base 11 includes each bristle bundle row 31 of the pair of first bristle bundle groups 21, each bristle bundle row 32 of the pair of second bristle bundle groups 22, and the third bristle bundle row. Each hair bundle row 33 of the bundle group 23 is arranged. These plural (specifically 11) hair bundle rows 31 to 33 are arranged at equal intervals in the width direction of the base, and the intervals are different from the hair bundles 13 in the second hair bundle group 22 and the third hair bundle group 23. The distances L3 and L4 (the distance in the longitudinal direction of the base) are the same.

Next, the operation of the hair brush 10 described above will be explained using FIG. 3. Note that the arrow line in the figure indicates the path that the hair moves when brushing the hair with the hair brush 10.

As shown in FIG. 3, when brushing hair using the hairbrush 10, the hair is divided into a first hair bundle group 21 → a second hair bundle group 22 → a third hair bundle group 23 → a second hair bundle group 22 →It will pass in the order of the first hair bundle group 21. In this case, the hair basically moves between adjacent hair bundles 13 in each hair bundle group 21-23.

First, in the first hair bundle group 21 that serves as the entrance for hair during brushing, hair bundles (hair bundles K) that have hardened due to curls etc. enter the hairless bundle area 25 . The hair bundle K is then guided to the second hair bundle group 22 and loosened by the soft hair bundle 13a of the second hair bundle group 22. Further, some of the hair bundles K enter the first hair bundle group 21 (hair bundle gathering section 27) from the hairless bundle area 25 and are guided from the first hair bundle group 21 to the second hair bundle group 22.

The hair loosened in the second hair bundle group 22 is guided to the third hair bundle group 23. In the third hair bundle group 23, the hair passes through each hair bundle row 33 in turn. Here, in each hair bundle row 33, the positions of the hair bundles 13b constituting the hair bundle row 33 in the longitudinal direction of the base are all the same. Therefore, when the hair passes between the hair bundles 13b of each hair bundle row 33, the hair passes straight in the width direction of the base (in other words, the direction in which each hair bundle row 33 is arranged). Moreover, at this time, the hair passes between each hair bundle 13b while being compressed. As a result, the hair is straightened and straight hair can be obtained.

Thereafter, the straightened hair is guided to the hairless region 25 of the first hair bundle group 21 through the second hair bundle group 22. Then, the straight hair is discharged from the hairless bundle region 25.

According to the configuration of this embodiment described in detail above, the following excellent effects can be obtained.

The brush base 11 is provided with a plurality of groups of bristle bundles in which the bristle bundles 13 are arranged in rows in the longitudinal direction of the base in the width direction of the base. These plural hair bundle groups include a first hair bundle group 21 located at the end in the width direction of the base, a second hair bundle group 22 adjacent to the first hair bundle group 21, and a second hair bundle group 22 adjacent to the first hair bundle group 21. A third hair bundle group 23 is disposed on the opposite side of the first hair bundle group 21 with the third hair bundle group 23 in between. In this case, when brushing hair with a hairbrush, the hair passes through the first hair bundle group 21 → the second hair bundle group 22 → the third hair bundle group 23 in this order.

In the first hair bundle group 21 that serves as the entrance for hair during brushing, each hair bundle 13 is arranged so that hairless bundle regions 25 where no hair bundles 13 are present are formed at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction of the base. It is being The distance between the hair bundles 13 adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base with the hairless bundle area 25 in between in the first hair bundle group 21 is the same as the distance between the hair bundles 13 adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the base with the hairless bundle area 25 in between in the second hair bundle group 22 and the third hair bundle group 23. The interval is larger than the interval between matching hair bundles 13. In this case, during brushing, hair clumps that have become hard due to curls or the like can be easily placed into the hairless clump area 25. Furthermore, since the hair bundles 13a constituting the second hair bundle group 22 are formed to be softer than the hair bundles 13b constituting the third hair bundle group 23, the hair bundles that have entered the hairless bundle area 25 are replaced with the second hair bundles. It can be easily guided to the bundle group 22. Then, the guided hair bundle can be loosened by the soft hair bundle 13a of the second hair bundle group 22. This makes it difficult for hair strands to get caught, and as a result, brushing can be performed smoothly.

The third bristle bundle group 23 has a plurality of bristle bundle rows 33 in which the bristle bundles 13 are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base. In this case, the hair loosened in the second hair bundle group 22 passes through each hair bundle row 33 in the third hair bundle group 23. Further, in each hair bundle row 33, the positions of the hair bundles 13 constituting the hair bundle row 33 in the longitudinal direction of the base are all the same. In this case, when the hair passes through each hair bundle row 33, the hair passes straight in the direction in which each hair bundle row 33 is arranged. Therefore, it is possible to secure a long distance for straightening the hair. Further, since the hair bundles 13b constituting the third hair bundle group 23 are formed harder than the hair bundles 13a constituting the second hair bundle group 22, when the hair passes through the third hair bundle group 23, It is possible to prevent the bundle 13b from falling down due to the force of the hair. Therefore, it becomes possible to straighten the hair.

As described above, according to the hair brush 10 of the above embodiment, it is possible to suitably obtain straight hair.

The second bristle bundle group 22 has a plurality of bristle bundle rows 32 in which the bristle bundles 13 are arranged in series in the longitudinal direction of the base. Further, among the adjacent hair bundle rows 32, the hair bundles 13 forming one hair bundle row 32a and the hair bundles 13 forming the other hair bundle row 32b are arranged alternately in the longitudinal direction of the base. has been done. In this case, the hair bundles in the second hair bundle group 22 can be easily loosened. Therefore, hair strands are less likely to get caught, and as a result, brushing can be performed more smoothly.

The hair bundle row 32 of the second hair bundle group 22 includes a hair bundle row 32b adjacent to the third hair bundle group 23 (hair bundle row 33). The hair bundles 13 forming the hair bundle row 32b and the hair bundles 13 forming the hair bundle row 33 are alternately arranged in the longitudinal direction of the base. This allows the hair to be loosened even more easily.

The number of hair bundle rows 33 forming the third hair bundle group 23 is greater than the number of hair bundle rows 32 forming the second hair bundle group 22. Thereby, the distance in which the hair is straightened in the third hair bundle group 23 can be made longer. Therefore, the straightening effect can be further enhanced.

The hair bundles 13a constituting the first hair bundle group 21 are formed to be softer than the hair bundles 13b constituting the third hair bundle group 23. In this case, when brushing, the hair strands can be easily inserted into the hairless strand area 25 without applying excessive force. Therefore, brushing can be made easier.

The farther each hair bundle row 31 constituting the first hair bundle group 21 is located from the second hair bundle group 22, the larger the distance between adjacent hair bundles 13 with the hairless bundle area 25 in between. ing. In this case, since the entrance portion of the hairless bundle region 25 is wide, the hair bundle can be inserted into the hairless bundle region 25 more easily.

Furthermore, the closer each hair bundle row 31 is to the second hair bundle group 22, the smaller the distance between adjacent hair bundles 13 with the hairless bundle region 25 in between. In this case, the hair bundles that have entered the hairless bundle area 25 easily enter the first hair bundle group 21, and the hair bundles in the first hair bundle group 21 can be loosened by the soft hair bundles 13a. Thereby, the hair bundle can be added to the second hair bundle group 22 and also loosened in the first hair bundle group 21, so that the hair bundle is less likely to get caught.

The hair bundle groups include a pair of first hair bundle groups 21 located at both ends of the plurality of hair bundle groups 21 to 23, and a pair of second hair bundle groups arranged between each of the first hair bundle groups 21. 22, and one third hair bundle group 23 arranged between each second hair bundle group 22. With this configuration, no matter which side of the base width direction the hair is brushed, the hair passes in the order of first hair bundle group 21 → second hair bundle group 22 → third hair bundle group 23. Therefore, it is possible to obtain suitably straight hair even when brushing from either side.

The flocked surface 11a of the brush base 11 is curved in a concave shape. In this case, since the hair-planting surface 11a has a curved shape that follows the shape of the user's head, the user's hair is easily captured by the hair bundles 13 protruding from the hair-planting surface 11a. In addition, although the flocked surface 11a is curved in a concave shape, each of the hair bundles 13 extends parallel to each other, so that the distance between adjacent hair bundles 13 does not become locally narrow. Therefore, hair can easily enter between the hair bundles 13, and in this respect, it is also easier to catch the hair. Furthermore, in this case, when brushing hair in the width direction of the base, the brushing force applied to the hair is not dispersed in the longitudinal direction of the base, and as a result, the brushing force is applied in the width direction of the base, that is, the hair It becomes possible to suitably add it in the direction of straightening it. Therefore, it becomes possible to obtain straight hair more suitably.

Since the brush bristles 15 constituting the hair bundle 13 are made of animal hair, it is possible to give shine to the hair and also to remove dandruff and dust attached to the hair. Further, it is possible to obtain the advantage that static electricity is less likely to occur during brushing.

Since the resin brush bristles 16 constituting the hair bundle 13 have a rounded tip, they can provide an appropriate massage effect to the scalp during brushing.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may be implemented, for example, as follows.

- In the above embodiment, the brush bristles constituting the bristles 13 include only one resin bristle 16, but the brush bristles 15 may be made entirely of animal hair without including such bristles 16. good. Moreover, all the brush bristles constituting the bristle bundle 13 may be made of resin.

- In the above embodiment, the hair bundle groups include a pair of first hair bundle groups 21, a pair of second hair bundle groups 22, and a third hair bundle group 23, but this is changed, It may be configured to include one each of the first hair bundle group 21, the second hair bundle group 22, and the third hair bundle group 23. In this case, the first hair bundle group 21 and the third hair bundle group 23 are arranged at both ends in the width direction of the base, and the second hair bundle group 22 is arranged between these hair bundle groups 21 and 23. do. Even in this configuration, when brushing, the hair passes through the first hair bundle group 21 → the second hair bundle group 22 → the third hair bundle group 23 in this order, so that straight hair can be suitably obtained.

- The flocked surface 11a of the brush base 11 does not necessarily have to be a curved surface, and may be a flat surface.
