The Kodi Professional nail brush assortment includes tools for shaping, artistic painting, and working with gel, acrylic, and polygel. Choosing the right brush significantly affects the quality of the manicure, the technician’s work speed, and the precision of the design.
Main Types of Nail Brushes
Gel modeling brushes
This is one of the most popular categories in the professional nail industry. These brushes are used to apply gel and distribute it evenly across the nail plate.
The following shapes are available in the catalog:
- Oval (oval-shaped);
- Square (straight);
- Angular (oblique);
- Round.
Oval brushes are ideal for applying material evenly and for self-leveling gel. Straight Square brushes are convenient for creating a clean nail architecture and working on the cuticle area. Angular brushes help create precise lines and work in hard-to-reach areas.
Brushes for Acrylic and Polygel
For acrylic systems, it is recommended to use brushes with natural bristles—they are more flexible and denser. These brushes hold the monomer and material better.
It is also recommended to use brushes with natural bristles for acrygel or polygel.
The following items are available in our product range:
- acrylic modeling brushes;
- polygel tips;
- 2-in-1 models.
Combination models are particularly popular, as they allow you to work with different material textures at the same time and help save space in a craftsman's toolkit.
Nail Design and NAIL ART
Thin brushes with long bristles are used for artistic designs. They allow you to create:
- monograms;
- thin lines;
- geometric elements;
- floral designs;
- French manicure;
- ombre effects.
The most popular types:
Liner brushes ensure maximum precision when drawing fine details. Ombre Brushes are used to create gradients and smooth color transitions.
Materials for Braids
Kodi Professional brushes are made primarily of synthetic bristles.
Advantages of synthetic fibers:
- easy to clean;
- long service life;
- stable branch structure.
Natural bristles are more commonly used in brushes for acrylic and polygel systems because they hold liquid better.

These brushes allow you to perform most basic procedures.

Ear Care
To make your brushes last longer:
- Clean the brushes after each treatment;
- Do not leave the brush in the liquid;
