Animal friendly brushes

[julia_james]

ok i dont want this to turn into a debate about animal hairs used in brushes but i would like to know if anyone knows where you can buy brushes that are not made of hairs

im not against using the hairs but i just thought that maybe there is an alternative

i have looked all over the net and the only ones i can see are makeup brushes but obviously gel and monomer are chemicals so the brushes would have to be able to be used in this way

synthetic brushes are fine for gel if you prefer them, but absolutely useless for l/p acrylic. you really need the absorbency of natural hair to hold enough liquid to keep the acrylic workable.

you may find the information about how brushes are made useful on this site.
