BODY BRUSH AND BRISTLE SETTING METHOD

PURPOSE:To form a handle of a brush into a shape easy to grip and optionally change the firmness of bristles. CONSTITUTION:A handle 11 consists of a block head 13 and a grip 12. The grip 12 has nearly a rectangular cross section and is thick in thickness. The surface on the bristle side is parallel to the back, and the grip 12 is designed to satisfy a formula T1>=W1, where W1 is the horizontal width and T1 is the vertical thickness between the surface and the back. A connection part between the grip 12 and the block head 13 has a recessed part on the surface and is slightly slanted upward. Bristles 14 are set in tuft holes provided in the block head 13 with their protruding lengths changed so that the firmness of the bristles 14 can be changed by changing the protruding lengths of the bristles 14.
