If you are looking for a very soft brush blue or green is the color you need. the black falls in the middle for tension on the pins for the colored Madan brushes."

I had actually wanted a black one, but when she wrote that, I got a blue one. She did not specifically mention the pink or purple ones, but since she said I should get blue or green if I wanted a very soft brush, I took that to mean they would be softer than all the other colors. I wanted the softest they had.

I relented and gave Ben his Maden brush. This is really a great brush for him. It will get the tangles out and leaves him very shiny. He does not like getting brushed. But he settled down for me and quit fighting it. That is an improvement for Ben. I think as he continues to realize how good it feels, he may wind up enjoying being brushed eventually. It is nice on the person doing the brushing too -- just feels good in your hand.

I still think I am going to order another for me though. Wish I could feel them all in person before ordering. I would love to go to one of the big pet trade shows where they have all the vendors set up. Course I would probably spend my kid's college fund so maybe it is best I don't have one around here to attend.
Joey's brush is black with the black pad, the pad seems really soft or spongy, I thought it was the black with red pad that was hard, like the one in this picture. http://www.laineeltd.com/laineeltd/images/mpb_bhard.jpg

Anyway, we have been really happy with it, I hope I have the right one.
