The prices vary depending on area, but usually expect to spend $2-8 for a curry comb (plastic or rubber), $2-20 for a dandy brush or a body brush, $2-10 for a little face brush and under $5 for a hoof pick.
Each brush can cost anywhere from 1 to 7 dollars. Horsehair brushes are the most expensive; the synthetic kind range in price.
Some stores will have a package of all the brushes (curry, dandy, soft, face, comb, etc). These can be less expensive than buying each brush individually, but are often poor quality.

Yes, a dandy brush, or soft brush is a good thing to use on a horse's face and/or legs. Answer 2: In the UK, a "dandy" brush is a hard bristled brush unsuitable for use on the horse's face and sensitive areas. A body brush or special face brush is a more suitable alternative for these areas. It can safely be used on the legs however.
No, it's better to use a wire brush in circumflex movement and finish up with a soft brush to double check that all dirt is off.
The skin of a young horse is sensitive, so a soft brush is usually best to begin grooming a young horse. When the weather becomes hot and flies are biting, a coarser brush will be more welcomed.
It is best if a hard or Dandy brush is not used on the face or lower legs as it can be too rough for these sensitive areas.
