Tangle Teezer Hairbrush: Details, pros and cons
This hairbrush is designed to detangle locks with ease without causing damage to your hair, and I can confirm it does just that. Ever since I was little, brushing my *thick* hair always felt daunting because I knew what to expect: a lot of pain and pulling.
However, this brush literally changed the game — it gently glides through my locks without any painful tugging, thanks to its long teeth, which help prevent breakage.
The shorter teeth work to smooth the cuticle, and I always find my hair to feel miraculously smooth and glossy with minimal frizz after fully brushing it through.

- Very gentle
- Minimal damage/breakage
- Fun colours
- Easy to clean
- Leaves hair looking healthy/shiny
- Frizz-free finish
- Suitable for most hair types
- Lacks a grip on the handle
- Not ergonomically designed
I also love that I can use it on wet hair to draw products through my hair evenly. It works so well that I even purchased a mini version for travelling, and I'm equally pleased with it.
The only con that comes to mind is that the handle doesn't have a grip, but that's not a big deal to me, personally. Not to be dramatic, but I can guarantee that I'll never buy another hairbrush brand.

🏆 "Great brush for naturally curly/wavy hair."
While I clearly love this item, it looks like Amazon shoppers are as big a fan of the Tangle Teezer as I am— just in case you need some reassurance.
One customer confirmed that it's "superior" to their other hairbrushes, and they also noticed that they "have less breakage" after using it. Another shopper even said they noticed that their "hair doesn't fall out as much" anymore since using it.

Another reviewer can attest that it "works well in long, thick hair" and that "it massages the scalp [nicely]."
"I'm happy to report that this brush doesn't pull or tear my hair out when I brush it," added another happy shopper. They continued to share that it's "super easy to clean" and the "best brush" they've owned.
One thing to note is that due to the grip-less handle, a reviewer pointed out that "it slips easily."
The verdict
If you hate brushing your hair due to painful tugging and endless tangles, this brush is here to save the day. It's worth the investment, being under $25, and will last you forever. I've had mine for a year now, and not a single bristle is damaged.
So, if you're looking for a gentle, painless hair-brushing experience, this Tangle Teezer is totally worth adding to your cart.
