Since the hair 1 in which the brush bristles 17c in the latter stage is disentangled is combed, even the hair 1 having a high density can be combed relatively well. However, when the hair 1 has the knotted hair 1 ', the front-stage brush bristles 17a inclined in the direction in which the knotted hair 1'is present cannot bite into the knotted hair 1', and the knotted hair 1'cannot be combed. Tangled hair 1 '
Is likely to disconnect.

The brush 12 of FIG. 8 is a long hair 2 of a pet animal.
Suitable for combing 0 to remove hair loss 20 '. However, when a person's hair is combed with this kind of brush 12, the frictional resistance between the V-shaped brush bristles 18 and the hair is naturally large, and the tip portion of the V-shaped brush bristles 18 is easy to bite into the entangled hair. Not suitable for hair styling.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to
An object of the present invention is to provide a hair-conditioning brush that can smoothly comb even high-density hair or hair with curled hair.
