Fringe grooming brush

[Wing It]

What kind of brush do you use and where can it be bought for grooming the fringe? My tamping brush does descent and the carding brush is too aggressive.

That's what you want, works well to detangle, much better than the handi-groomer.

It also comes in a wider model

We have those too but they use the Handi Groomers.

I think we bought those back in the early 70's. lol

According to Richard's experience, it should last you the better part of a century.

Are there any other brushes from braun you like for rug cleaning/grooming? Might as well throw them in with the r 23 order.

The longer carding brush is faster if you have a need for it..

The Grandi-Groomer or the green spiky things are right for fringe. The tines are round enough and there is enough space between tines to straighten fringe without damage.

Fine brushes, particularly the fine wire brush, are horrible for fringe. They will split the fringe yarns into individual fibers and remove the twist that give any yarn durability. We'll use that type of brush if we replace the fringe on one end of a rug and want to "age" it to match the existing end.
