Camryn's BFF Gentle Edges Brush

Product Information

On either side of your part, slowly smooth your edge brush along your hairline to shape your baby hairs in a wavy line. One of the best parts about using this tool – or laying edges, in general – is that it's easy (after a few tries) and only takes a few steps.

I love the straight lines that angled brushes apply almost effortlessly, and the Wooster Brush Shortcut made it even easier to do this work. The aluminum shield allowed overspray to dry quickly and made it easy to simply peel off for cleaning. Anyone gearing up to start a big paint job may find one of them ideal for making fast work of the project without sacrificing crisp, clean results. But it's more than just brushes: There are other kinds of tools hairstylists like to use to put that hairline in check so you can turn it into a gorgeous work of art or just create a uniform sleekness from your roots to your ends. Using a toothbrush has been a long-time hack in the beauty world to slick baby hairs down but, in 2018, Baby Tress launched.

Its short, cushioned handle seemed to make the brush more responsive and definitely made it more comfortable and less fatiguing for extended periods than hard plastic or wood handles. And not just any old edge brush you pick up at the beauty supply will cut it (though you can find some good options there). Paint-pad edgers offer the speed of a paint roller and the accuracy of a brush without the added time and expense of using painter’s tape. Retractable guides stay clean when paint is loaded onto the pad, and users can eject wet pads in a snap for quick and easy cleanup.

But it’s particularly suited to spraying because its 36-inch-long by 9-inch-wide blade provides ample coverage for painting wide swaths. An extender is an accessory that may prove very helpful when painting rooms, as it reduces reaching, bending, squatting, and kneeling to access both high and low spots. I converted an average bedroom into a paint-edger testing lab to find out where each of the chosen products would excel. When the project is complete, this moisture- and UV-resistant tape is easy to take off, and it won’t leave any sticky residue if removed within 14 days. We asked a few hairstylists to share exactly which styling tools they use to create artistic baby hairs or just simply maintain a single, straight texture that starts at the root.When used with an edge control product, like a hair gel or pomade, you’ll be able to achieve various styles. Being a manufacturer, Ja Seals have the ability to custom make any of their products to meet your individual needs. First of all, it's got a half-inch barrel that is flanked by two comb-like attachments that go slightly higher than the actual barrel. It also worked along the ceiling line, but my textured ceiling caused the finished edge to be slightly less precise.

Hairstylist Jachelle Whiting reminds us that it's important to take your hair texture into consideration when you're choosing the right tool for your edges. Outside I applied the tape on dried but unfinished pressure-treated decking to see how well it would hold up for 2 weeks. Wooster Brush’s Shortcut trim brush offers excellent control and comfort for precision brushing and extended use.

Occasionally, paint accumulated on the inner edge of the guide, so I made sure to wipe it off each time I loaded paint. The 2-inch angled sash brush is often a professional painter’s first choice for cleanly cutting in trim, whether working freehand or with a guide. The Baby Tress tool design process was “rooted in creating an object that not only honors the legacy of our hair but would perform best for slicking baby hairs. The bristles on a medium-firm toothbrush will allow you to smooth your edges without being too rough.
