What brush for women?

My daughter is beginning to shave. Her mother bought her a Schick with the soap bumper / puck surrounding the blade. But on a recent trip to the shaving holy land (Maggard Razor’s B&M store) she picked out a soap and is interested in trying DE shaving.

But before I order her a brush, what shape / size do lady shavers prefer? A big fan, a bulb like what I have, or something smaller? I told her I’d get her a brush if she determined she liked it, so in the meantime she’ll use my PAA Amber Aerolite. She likes the look of the pool-blue PAA Phantom Aerolite.

Please help a dad out, ladies of B&B!
Thanks!

My wife picked out an Alpha 400 handle in green at Maggard's. Added a synthetic not and she has no interest in any other brush. Loves the shape of the handle for wet hands in the shower. She has tried a few of my badger brushes but likes how a synthetic brush lathers and feels. Here first brush was the PAA Amber Aerolite.

The 26mm PAA Phantom Aerolite is too big for my face so I use it on my head - just more real estate. The grip is very secure and it covers a big area in one go.

If you want to go even bigger RR has the F-400 with a 34mm knot.

OT, this is the same question I've been asking. I will probably just give her a larger 26 to 28mm Yaqi brush until I know what she likes. However, I may stumble upon something to match her razor and then all bets are off. I keep looking, time to time.
