The insert has a color-coded flange at the top of the handle and the brush head also has a color-coded collar at its base. Only brush heads with the same colored collar as the brush handle's flange can be received in an interlocking relationship with the handle. A ring on the insert is releasably latched into the brush head to retain the brush head in a latched relationship for use and can be pulled apart when the brush head is to be removed and replaced with an alternate brush head.
