13. The problems faced
The problems faced by
her(which I perceived) are
• Continual change of hand
positions during the process.
• The brush slips a little – brush is
thinner than what she should be
using. So it feels a little
insubstantial in hand – when
pointed out to her is a little • The bristles, after
surprised and agrees. only 6 days of usage,
are frayed.
