May not "feel" like a brush you've used in the past.
The length of the massage balls and the boar bristles are different.  It took awhile to get used to this.  I kept thinking my hair was not getting completely brushed.  But after adjusting, I LOVE this brush.  It is gentle on my hair which is old and thin.  I find less loose hairs in this brush than I do/did in other brushes. The wooden brush is sturdy and comfortable to use.  Would recommend / buy again.
