Vikan, Yellow Brush,Nail,Stiff,PP/PBT, 6440

At first, I thought this brush was not as good as the grocery store ones with the curved handles. Those ones are super easy to grip with the curved handle, unless you have large fingers. The finger grip allows for good agility as you can effortlessly use your fingers and your wrist to position the brush just right. I didn’t appreciate the palm grip needed for the Vikan brush, as it felt like it blunted the scrubbing.Well, it’s not good to apply the technique for one brush to a brush of a different design. I learned that the good way to scrub with this Vikan brush, is to palm-hold it in one hand, while using the opposite hand with the dirty fingernails …. to glide back and forth along the bristles. That way, you can use the hand being scrubbed to work with agility across the whole wider surface of the Vikan brush. And voila, that takes advantage of the palm grip and the wider brush!! If you use the gripping hand to brush, it feels like you’re scrubbing all of your fingers and knuckles because the brush is so wide ….. but if you instead just hold the gripping hand with brush steady and glide the fingernails being scrubbed, it changes everything and makes it efficient!!! So now I’m glad I got this brush and since I got an extra one for a gift, I can let the gift receiver know the best way to use this brush!!I love things like this which are kind of like luxury items (only because you can get by without them), but are so useful that you love having them and would buy them again if needed. I don’t think anyone should torture themselves by doing things the hard way, when a good quality brush like this changes everything and is appreciated.Now that I see the beauty in how this brush is used, I think it’s wonderful and I recommend it to all who are reading this!!
