Default brushes

There is nothing wrong with boars hair or any natural bristle.
As a long time groomer of Yorkies I...
Use a spray..you do not want to brush a dry coat if you are going for a show coat..meaning, as little breakage as possible. I use a bit of very diluted Coat Handler rinse in a spray bottle of water. Lots of stuff works..just dilute it so you can use everyday or so.
I run the uncovered pin head through the coat...then I use a fine toothed metal comb on the face and paws..wider tooth on the rest of the body.
Then I rebrush and spray with a bit of coat finisher like Vellus, or All Systems stuff..so much to pick from..lotsof good suggestions in past posts.
A Mason Pearson is the very best natural bristle, but expensive.
