How soft/stiff are the bristles on these brushes? I'm looking for something that isn't too abrasive.

These bristles are made for Contigo. They are not abrasive, but they clean well. I really like them.

I would say the bristles are about medium. They scrub well, but are not so stiff as to be uncomfortable. The problem is the slippery handle. There's no way you'll be able to hold onto it without taping it in some fashion.

I have small-to-medium sized woman's hands, and this fits well in my hand. Not sure what "original" bristles are, so I guess I'd have to say soft bristles, but this grooming brush works very well on my kitties and my Labrador and the bristles don't hurt them. Hope this helps!

I measured the bristles. They are about an inch long. They are rather stiff. Go gently the first couple of times using the brush until you get used to it.

The bristles are a happy medium and then lean slightly on the soft side. I don't like soft bristles but this brush is just right.

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.

I just purchased the Oral-B Dual Clean Replacement head. They are quite good but I would not call them a soft brush. In face, they are a little stiff when new. I don't know if Oral-B sells a soft head.

Bristles are really soft. My hair are thin and fine too. Brush works great.

I find the bristles very soft. If you apply pressure, you probably could irritate your skin, but if you use gentle strokes, you should be okay. I use circular strokes when washing my face.

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.

I have the medium size and they are definitely on the softer side. I had the smaller at one time and they may have been a bit more stiff.I just felt them and you can push them in without feeling like they bristle will hurt.I think they are worth trying at least--Good Luck with your decision.

The bristles are the thin metal type that are hard, so I would at gently brush. The small size will be a perfect fit. Hope this helps

Soft bristle I have found them durable found out about them thru my dentist who did my implants. Only kind I will use now. I use one for 6 months.

They are not. They are inexpensive brushes. A bit stiffer than a commercial toothbrush. Perfect for one time use, but too stiff to use as a primary toothbrush.

It had better be soft enough because that's what I'm using it for: hardwood floors. I've only had it a short time, but feeling the bristles with my fingers, I can't see that they would do any damage.

I am very happy with this brush. The bristles are standing up well, yet they are soft. The handle is the right length and easy to grip. Be sure to store it the way they recommend, however (bristles face down).

When it was brand new the bristles were a bit hard but as I have used it they have softened considerably. Hope this helps :)
