From material selection to finished product: What are the steps in making a nail brush?

Production steps

1. Combing the hair. This is a preparatory step before making nail brushes. Regardless of whether the material is low-end, mid-range, or high-end, it needs to be combed before production to make it neat and remove some short hairs from the middle. This is a process of separating the coarse from the fine, and this step is crucial. If it is not done well, it will directly affect the quality of the makeup brushes later.

2. Inserting/Cupping. Single- and double-lined wool are used for inserting, without a peak. This is a purely manual process, and most bristles are made with cups. The quality of the cups themselves and the skill of the cup-maker play a decisive role in the quality of the bristle shape.

3. Pressing. The bristles are inserted into the prepared aluminum tube. This process only applies to flattened bristles; it is not required for straight tubes. To avoid uneven bristle shapes during pressing, the bristles must be aligned during the pressing process.

4. Applying glue. This step is crucial for securing the brush and preventing the bristles from falling during use. Too little glue can lead to a loose bond and hair loss. Too much glue can cause leaks, which can render even the best-quality nail brushes defective.

5. Shave/Trimming. While the cup determines the shape of the bristles during nail brush production, trimming is another crucial step. Shave and trimming are a combined process, and their combined results determine the final appearance and quality of the brush. Careful trimming is crucial; carelessness can lead to unnecessary damage during production.

6. Assembly. This step involves attaching a handle to the bristle head. Once the bristle head is complete, the handle and bristle head must be assembled. During assembly, ensure a tight fit and no gaps. This step determines the quality of the entire brush and is the most fundamental step in creating a quality brush. Of course, for flat brush heads, some tools are needed to assist with the operation. Simply connect and press firmly.

7. Cleaning. Before packaging, clean the brush thoroughly with white gloves. Freshly made brushes may be dusty and stained. If the handle accidentally gets stained, use alcohol to scrub it clean.
