Tangle Teezer | The Salon Elite Detangling Hairbrush | Midnight Black

I'm a little paranoid when it comes to my hair which is thinning but very long so I'm as gentle to it as I can be. I only wash it once a week, never use heat tools, sleep with a satin bonnet/head scarf and using several different hair brushes including some that were quite expensive. My hair tangles so easily, I can brush one side of the hair switch to do the other but already the first half is tangle just from moving it. I've had a tangle tweezer in the past as I bout the original one when it VERY first came out. I enjoyed the original however I found the bristles bent fairly quickly. My biggest issue was that it would constantly fly out of my hand especially as my hair is so long and it drove me mad. So much so that I stopped using it and moved onto other brushes. However when this one, the elite, was reccomended to me I thought I'd give a tangle teezer a second chance and I am so glad I did. In the hand it feels like it is so much sturdier and a higher quality and the rounded shape fit into the hand so much better than the original and hugs the curve pf your head too which really helps for giving a scalp stimulating massage which by the way this brush is AMAZING for. The bristles are rounded and not at all scratchy which means it doesn't irritate my scabby patches of psoriasis that are dotted around here and there. One of the things I love about tangle teezer style brushes is that they're so much easier to clean. One of my other brushes is use (that i LOVE and highly reccomend; the cantu detangling bristle brush for thick hair) is a nightmare to clean. Because I have 2 cats, one of which is a very floofy Ragdoll I get so much fluff and fuzz in my hair and that quickly builds up on my brushes even though I remove hair from my brushes every time I use them. It takes forever to pick out the fuzz from the bristles. With this tangle teezer however it is so much easier because of it being plastic it is so simple and quick to clean I just run it under the tap with a small amount of shampoo and use a soft tooth brush to thoroughly clean between bristles and then simply rinse. Done in 30seconds. It gently detangles my knotty hair and the amount of hair I lose when I brush is so much less than any other brush I use and that makes a big difference to me as my hair falls easily due to lupus and pcos. If you're undecided about trying this brush, just do it and give it a try, you will not be disappointed.If my review helps please feel free to let me know as it helps me improve fo future reviews. 🖤

great item, great value for money would recommend

I think these brushes are meant for human hair but I bought it to brush our dog’s hair with after trying out our daughter’s one on him. Doesn’t really matter who/what it’s used on as long as it works. It’s also quite soothing as a brush for Oscar - it certainly gets the hair brushed nicely and all the excess hair then gets stuck in the brush which is a bit unfortunate as it’s very difficult to get out.

When I first got this brush I thought it wasn't going to work. It's very light and you would think that the little flexible bristles were not going to be up to much. I was proved wrong once I started using it.I will say that the size of the brush is smaller than I anticipated - it fits in the palm of your hand. It certainly does the job that it is advertised to do and I am very pleased that I decided to buy it. I use this brush every day after washing my hair and I do prefer to use it on wet hair.I will give you a few of really small "but's". I do like to brush conditioner through my hair before rinsing, but due to the smooth surface of the outside of the brush, you would find it difficult to keep a grip of the brush as it slips out of you hand (because of the soapy conditioner). Using it on wet hair without any product in it is fine. A second small negative is the brush could really do with a strap so the brush stays in your hand better as the size of the brush is a bit small. Thirdly, I think the brush is over-priced so maybe look around for the same brush elsewhere. Don't let my negatives put you off, the brush does work :o)

Although I personally find the brush a little large for my little hands, I must admit i wouldn't be without it.I have very bleach dry frizz hair and no matter what shampoo and conditioner I use it is always a problemfor me to get a comb through it after washing and I loose a lot of hair in the process.This brush has really been a game changer for me. I no longer dread combing my hair after washing and although there are still a few hairs left in the brush after brushing, theres a lot less than if I tried with anything else. It's certainly less painful too!

The original Tangle Teezer; it arrived packaged in its own plastic storage box--in my case, the genuine article.😊👍Best used with wet conditioned hair--my personal leave-in mixture is a generous amount of perfume-free conditioner (Simple brand) mixed with about a tsp of 100% pure argan oil. Rub it in, section, and this hairbrush works through my 4C tangles with ease. Some might prefer longer or sturdier bristles--these bend easily. Unlike those, this doesn't forcibly break (most of) my fragile hair.If your hair does get matted--the worst tangles--it is strong enough to work its way through. Be patient and start from the ends to minimise hair breakage. You can use it on dry hair, but you will experience more breakage.Even though I use it in the shower, it's only slipped out of my hand once. I prefer this style to the fan brushes, where the bristle spreader routinely pops off. Also, I find this wide palm-sized shape easier to control than a long-handled brush--a matter of personal preference.
