When dancing salsa it's easy to get confused between turns and hairbrushes. As a follow you might not know the difference and as a lead you might know how to distinguish the two very clearly. So let's demystify these two salsa techniques so you can lead and follow turns and hairbrushes with confidence!

The shoulder block is actually a great tip. Usually with beginners I stop doing hair brushes after the 2nd failed attempt(or anything else) Thanks for video!
I feel you! Glad it could help Rado. -robin
Thank you! I’m a beginner & just went to my first social. The leads who blocked my shoulder helped me understand what they were trying to do tremendously & allowed me to feel more relaxed in general. Especially since I’ve really only learned cross body leads & right turns so far. One lead had me doing all sorts of things I haven’t learned in class yet just because he was so clear with his signaling. Just want to add for the more experienced leads reading this… please be kind & try not to be condescending or visibly disappointed if your less experienced follow doesn’t understand something. We’re already feeling self-conscious & out of our depth. A little kindness & humor goes a looooong way.
So well said Hilary! If everyone showed a little more empathy, everyone would be having more fun. It's important that we can adjust to our partners and focus on just having a good time. So glad that shoulder blocking tip worked in action. Keep dancing and enjoying yourself (even if you get one or two negative experiences)! Thanks for your comment. -Robin

Wow a paisa that knows how to dance on1 lol....good tips! I am gonna try the shoulder technique
Glad you liked the tips! You don't know any paisas that can dance on1? Also, nobody in this video is paisa jaja 😂 -Robin
What if I need to turn so I can brush my own hair? … but on the serious side, thanks for the crystal clear explanation ;)
If it's a turn + beard brush it would definitely be cool
Usally it cause the lady is still stiff not relex as man to far away or cant lead it well
the details are key!
1st. Her Halo should be bigger... She will understand that's it's a Turn... not a comb...
2nd. Hair Comb starts at Point of Execution, that's determined by the Leader... It doesn't give her a chance to think it's a turn.
3. It's always been called a Hair Comb, not a Hair Brush...
Not sure what you mean by #2
From her axis, her halo should be slightly smaller than shoulder width around... just this positioning of her hand should tell her it's a turn... Point of execution is the difference between this position of your lead and the point at which you lead the comb... Making a very directional contrasting lead will make her follow without a decision on what you want her to do...
