Brush or Comb. Does it matter?

[Faith]

I see many of you blowdry and/or flatiron with a brush. Does it really make that much of a difference? I only ask because if that is what is holding me back from getting that swinging flatironed natural hair then I would like to try it. And if brushing is better, does it matter the type of brush? Same question applies to the comb...

I've actually never blow dried my hair with brush. I always use a comb. The comb gets down to my root without pulling out my hair like a brush would.

But then again, I have never tried a brush.

Once I'm more than 4 weeks post I have to use a comb to get at my roots...

Normally though a round or paddle brush gets me a sleeker finish, more volume, etc.

Stixx, are you relaxed? What type of brush are you using?
