It is well known that the equisingularity class of the general polar of a plane branch is not the same for all branches in a given equisingularity class, but it is the same for sufficiently general ones (cf. [C2]) and depends upon the analytic type of the branch. The aim of this paper is to go beyond generality and show how one could describe the equisingularity classes of (general) polars of all branches in a given equisingularity class, making use of the analytic classification of branches as described in [HH3]. We will show how this works in some particular equisingularity classes for which one has the complete explicit analytic classification, and in particular for all branches of multiplicity less or equal than four, based on the classification given in [HH2].
