This is such a great tutorial. I haven't cut my hair in a long, long time and after braiding it, I looked at the end and thought, "this would be a great brush." I searched TH-cam and your video was the first to pop up. I don't feel as if I need to continue looking. Thank you.
I added a very little birch tar at the point end to hold the thread and hairs, perfect result ! First time I use it today, love to paint with this tool ! Thank you for the tutorial.
I had a hard time convincing my wife to donate some of her hair, she finally did and i made 4 different brushes from really fine to 1/4". They work so good. thank you for showing us.
Really helpful that you included this video. When I watched your lesson on painting a pot and you said human hair brushes best and why, I thought "Oh great! where do I get one of those?" So grateful you thought to do this for viewers. It's an easy thing to do and I can see it will give me the results I've found impossible with my paint brushes. As a cosmetologist, I got the "slithering" part too!
Im glad i wasnt the only one. Just chopped my hair...and saw several swatches of hair that i kept and ...wanted to make a brush.. to.paint with. ❤ thanks
Quit cutting my hair at the start of Covid. Figured when sanity returned I'd cut it again. Still waiting, but this is the best reason I've heard to cut it yet!
Beautifully simple and practical! Thank you kindly Tony! You think my gray hair will work?:) I’ll try, if not, I’ll wait till my granddaughter’s haircut🤗🌸🕊

I actually did paint a tree with the tip of my braid once.

Never done human hair, but I have done deer hair. Even got a video on it, though the video is crap.
I love this. Can’t wait to practice making my own brushes and painting with them. Thank you for sharing.
Simple, yet invaluable. Thank you for passing the knowledge. 💕🌻
Love this video! Thank you
What a beautiful work you did!
You had me at shish kabob stick and human hair

Did you make the paint also ?
Yes I make pretty much everything I use
Nice vid tony! I will try it ! Hopefully TANF opens soon
WOW!!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the video. Our Catahoula hound has fluffy hair between her toes...makes a good brush....
Or even hair from a horse's maine or tail 🙂
Thank you for your advice Tony🌸
Very good. This is definitely on my project list.

Gray hair is usually void of a cuticle layer so hair with some color the molecules fall out and let it absorb paint
But do try
thankyou so much! ❤ how do you clean your brushes?
I just wash with water
@@tonysoaresnativeclays1434 thanks ☺️
Shampoo? Lol
Hey I already use shampoo on final rinse of most of my artist brushes
What kind of glue do you put over the string after winding?
I usually just put Elmer’s glue
@@tonysoaresnativeclays1434 Thank you. I will be cutting my hair soon and will use it to make a brush.
Thanks ❤
Thanks, a very informative video.
Do you use a specific tread? Waxed?
No just anything fine but it is wise to maybe put a little glue on the thread after you tie it to keep it from unraveling
@@tonysoaresnativeclays1434 thank you! Do you have a website?
No not at the moment, I do have Instagram with loads of pics, @tonysoarespottery
What kind of glue?
