are the bristles hard or soft?

Uh Oh! A subjective answer is: They lean towards the hard side. Bristles flex easily but are firm. Sorry this isn't a clean cut answer.

The brush has stiff bristle. It worked well for what I needed. Hope this helps.

I have ordered 5 of these brushes over the past year and a half. The bristle stiffness definitely varies with each brush. I have noticed that if a brush is stiffer than the last, they soften up pretty quickly.

Yes the bristles are soft. I was afraid they would be rock solid like most curling irons. My hair is short and the barrel looks large but it works just great.

The bristles are a combination of synthetic hair and animal (not sure what type of animal) but they are really soft.

The bristles are made of metals. They are not soft, but pokey. And my dogs give me faces when I hold the brush and they've learned to cringe upon seeing this brush. :(

Hi, Barbara! The bristles are not the softest for the most sensitive of gums. I would recommend them more for adults or older children. I hope this helps.

They are normal size but are soft not hard. They give a good brushing though. It is well worth it!

The packaging indicates "P.BT. Bristles." You can find information about this material on line. Some opinions seem to be that they are too stiff, but I don't find that true. They seem very gentle to me.

The packaging says "soft" in the upper top right, but the bristles seem slightly firmer than a soft toothbrush.

Well I wouldn't say hard, but I wouldn't say soft either. So maybe somewhere in between. Hope that helps. Also I would really recommend them.

The bristles are fairly soft but firm enough to do a good job on the teeth. I've been using them for over two years and haven't had any gum problems so they aren't too firm. Hope this helps you.

They are soft bristles. Sometimes...it depends how thick of hair I want to curl...learned though as not to get it thick to curl.Ela

They are soft but also long enough. I don't like styling tools that have really short bristles because it feels like I can't get my hair in them. I like these bristles

The bristles are firm but not hard. The brush works very well for me. This is a quality product.

Somewhere between hard and soft, I'd say. Maybe "stiff" would be a good descriptor. Where gaps between teeth are wide, the bristles clear out trapped food without changing in stiffness. But in the tighter spaces the bristles will bend when they are forced.
