Hake brushes feature soft bristles for smooth strokes and washes. Each brush is made of soft goat hair, which won't scorch or melt. Therefore, they are ideal for creating smooth, even washes of colour.

These brushes require different handling to protect natural hair from intense heat. Natural hair will singe if the heat source is too close. With the proper technique, this brush will quickly apply large, bold, textured strokes of wax colour.

Hake brushes are a traditional Asian brush style with very soft and dense bristles. They have large, flat wooden handles and are available in various sizes. The size of each brush model refers to the width of the brush head.

HOT TOOL CARE MAINTENANCE

Remove the Hot Tool attachments by gently grasping them at the ferrule to unscrew them from the wax pen. Attachments should be removed while still hot because the residual wax will still be soft and pliable. Use paper towels or a soft cloth to protect your fingers from getting burned. Never grasp the tip of the Hot Tool attachment (the pen point or brush bristles) to remove or unscrew it.

Never force attachments onto the wax pen. The Hot Tool attachments will still get hot even if they are loosely screwed onto the wax pen. Forcing the attachments on or screwing them on too tightly will cause damage.

Use Slick Wax and a soft cloth or paper towel to clean your hot tool attachments.

Carefully screw the Hot Tool attachments onto the wax pen, as forcing the tips may result in cross-threading the tools.

To protect the bristles of the Hot Brush attachments when not in use, coat the tips of the bristles with melted Slick Wax and let them cool.
