Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler Brush for Wet & Dry Hair, Eliminates Knots & Reduces Breakage for All Hair Types, Apricot Blaze

I'm coming up on age 64, here's some bonafides about my hair:* My hair WAS naturally dark blonde/light brown. I've been home-dyeing it red (warm red since 1998, before finally finding my perfect cool red just four years ago) Within 4 months of going cool (And LOVING it!) the grays started coming in (Of course...). Within a year it was like stray-gray whack-a-mole. After I retired I decided to stop with the red since I no longer had to consider co-workers asking "So... What's up with your hair?" I realized, though I may never have all-over gray, silver or white like I hope, I just didn't have the energy to fight anymore. So, like Elsa, I just let it go.*My hair length is midway down my back but needs about 4-5" cut off (I let it go, alright!). From the root to about 2/5 down it's silver over light brown with white taking over around my face and nape. I still have 3/5 length from the bottom-up that's faded cool red to let grow out and trim off before I can make any concrete decisions about what to do with whatever remains.* My hair is naturally wavy but it goes frizzy/straight when blown dry. So, I've had "problem texture" all my life. I have a lot of hair but I also have the kind of texture that makes it seem like even more when blown dry (Poof City). Meanwhile, my hair STRANDS are each thinner than cobweb filament. If I let my hair down, the slightest breeze creates chaos, with hair in my eyes and mouth - So I NEVER wear it down. And decades of dyeing equals decades of damage, I can't recall ever having shine or smooth hair, naturally, even before I colored my hair. I used to fall for every hair product gimmick. NOTHING made my hair look any different once it was blown dry.Until now.I ordered this wet/dry plastic bristle brush on a whim when ordering other stuff I needed. I expected nothing from my impulse buy (reviews were so positive... yeah, yeah...yawn). It was a month before I got it - but it wasn't like I was over here panting with expectation so, imagine my shock when I got this ordinary-looking tool, went to use IT on my just-washed hair, and had an incredible experience. I've used it on my wet hair four times, so far. But this is what I've experienced from each use:* Working from the tips to scalp, untangling all of my hair took SECONDS and was so EASY,* Compared to the comb, my bathroom sink had no broken off hair bits that I could see - and only a few naturally shed strands, post comb-thru. I really couldn't believe that. Still can't,* After drying my hair, I don't know how, but the texture is smoother and the overall appearance is MUCH shinier, even the grays!* The brush DOES seem to make my hair less POOFY and after I remove my chignon scrunchy my hair IS a bit flatter - BUT the overall effect is hair that's far more controlled than chaotic, and the curls and waves are surprisingly... glam, without effort.Literally NOTHING else about my hair care has changed. I'm using the same budget shampoo/conditioner (brand/formula/cost, has never made any difference) 6 days a week and violet shampoo/mask (to brighten the look of my incoming grays) on day 7. All that's changed is the switch from comb to THIS BRUSH. Every time I let my hair down in front of the mirror I think, 'How can this brush do all this?' It just doesn't LOOK like anything special.I highly recommend this brush for anyone - but especially people who use any chemical treatments, battle frizz, have long hair, damage, or wiry grays. THIS BRUSH surprised me. It might surprise you, too.

This brush works wonderfully on my long, wavy hair. My hair is fine but I have a lot of it, so I need a brush that gets through my hair when brushing from the underneath (which I do after brushing sections of my hair from the outside, ends to scalp), then again on the outside from scalp down to ends. After getting tired of the buildup and clumps of hair left in my old Revlon brush with the little balls on the ends of each tip, I tried the Crave brush. It didn't pull as much hair out (but there was always hair left in the Crave) but couldn't go through the length of my hair from the underneath. It also didn't do much for invigorating my scalp because it basically only reaches the outermost layer of hair.So, I took a chance on the Tangle Teezer and am so glad I did! It does exactly what I want a brush to do without pulling or tearing out hairs. I brush my hair several times a day because I wear it down and it gets windblown when I'm outside. The Tangle Teezer has been a blessing. It gets through my hair, leaving it soft, smooth, and shiny.See photos. First photo was taken right after brushing with the Tangle Teezer. The next two are of the brush (also taken right after using) showing that there are no hairs left behind. They're all still on my head!

I already had a detangling brush, but it wasn't working that great -- I felt like no matter how hard I brushed my hair, the brush seemed to skim over the surface of my hair and didn't do a thorough job of getting the tangles out. I saw this Tangle Teezer and decided to see if it was any better. The answer is YES.It wasn't until I compared the brushes side by side that I saw why Tangle Teezer reaches deep into my thick hair and goes all the way to the scalp to smooth out the tangles. It's because even though it is smaller than my old brush, it has twice as many of the long "flex teeth" that reach deep into your hair. My old brush only has only four long rows; the Tangle Teezer has nine long rows.Bravo, Tangle Teezer -- this one costs a little extra but it is worth it.A side note about the aesthetic appeal -- I got the "rosebud" shade and it is a fun, raspberry pink. The front side is matte and the back side is glossy which gives it a more luxe vibe, if that sort of thing matters to you. This is a great little everyday brush and I recommend it!

I love my wet brush and I used it for a long time until the handle broke (and even after), but there was one “issue” with it —and others like it— which the Tangle Teezer does not have: The bulbs at the end of the bristle. When the white lint(?) gets caught up at the base of the bristles, the bulb makes removing them very difficult. Without the bulb, I expect this will be much easier. It would be nice if there were gaps between the rows of bristles for making hair removal easier, but you win some, you lose some. I have had no issues with it so far and look forward to using it for a long time to come. At $15 per, this better be long lasting 🙂. It is a good size and works for my wavy, frizz-prone hair.

First - the brush is a cute color combo - the mint green and pink are really great! Love that it's lightweight and doesn't get damaged during transit when traveling. I have thin strands that tend to get tangled easily, and the brush does a good job of getting them out without hurting my head. It's relatively easy to get the hairs that gets stuck on the brush out too. However - the size is a little small - both on the handle and the head itself, however, so if you have thicker hair this brush might not be for you.
