Noemi's Hairbrush

The teal hairbrush is 9 inches long, is 1.75 inches wide at the top, 1.25 inches at the handle, weighs 2.5 ounces, and has a rectangular design.  At the top, there are black plastic bristles with round bulbs at the tips to prevent my wife from injury.

Between the top of the brush and the handle there is a chrome ribbon that separates the two sections. The handle has a black rubber handle. There is a hole punched through the bottom handle.

At the top are the remains of hundreds of dead hairs that the brush has pulled loose. The hairs are tangled together and sprout from the edges of the brush. The mass of hair trapped between the bristles is very thick. This makes the brush look black at the top instead of teal. Interestingly, some of the bristles are bent which creates dysfunction to the rows of bristles.

Everyday, she brushes black hair and everyday the brush pulls her hair out. Old hair comes out and makes way for new hair. She brushes her hair from the crown of her head towards her shoulders. Sometimes, she will tilt her head in the direction she is pulling from. This is done for efficiency. Her neck muscles would use more energy to hold her head perfectly straight. When she’s done, the brush is always placed in the supinated position with its back against the sink’s surface. It’s always available.
