It works great as a detangler. I wish it had a handle though because it gets really slippery when I try to comb my hair with conditioner in it.
*TANGLE TEEZER* is the truth....

wow this thing is amazing! i'm in awe. i had some messy, messy tangles in my hair, and i thought the teezer was totally gonna rip out my hair. but it didn't. the teeth kinda rejected the big knots, if that makes sense. instead of ripping through them, the teeth rubbed over the back of the knots, and within a few strokes, the hairs would be untangled.
i also love that this thing helps with product distribution. i've been totally using too much product. usually i use huge globs of product on 4 or 5 sections of my hair. well i used a quarter size amount of my leave-in, and detangled. there was so much excess! now i can cut back on using my stuff. yay!
in the pics below is a comparison of hair lost: the tangle teezer was used on wet hair, and wet hair with product, and what you are seeing is ALL the hair lost from my whole head. in the denman pic, that is hair lost from 1 of 5 sections on my hair. i am in awe! i didn't think my shedding was above average, but i'd rather lose 10 hairs than the average 100. ♥

Well I searched high and low in my cold city and finally found one at a salon close by that maked me shudder every time I pass.
Unfortunately I was not amazed.
Like a few earlier posters it kept shooting out of my hand, my son wondered if I was firing a gun in the shower.
It did not melt anything on my head, it kinda of just slid/skipped over the top part of the sections and my hair doesn't even get that tangled. I had to follow up with my denman de-tangling brush.
BUT I will try it again, maybe I was doing it wrong.
And I think it will work excellently on my sons' 3a, apl-when-wet hair so....
That said I did not loose a lot of hair and my styling wooden comb did not snag or anything..... I just didn't get the same satisfaction as with my denman....

So I tried it out last night and I LOVE this thing. 
I was slightly disappointed because I couldn't get the purple sparkly one... but I was able to secure the pink one and I will definitely be back for another one soon.
It DID work like a charm. THOUGH, I did have a lot of hair left in my TT, I think it's because I may have not been detangling properly after all this time. So I'll give it a few days and then report back to see if there is less hair remaining then.
Thanks OP!!!

Let me preface this by saying, I don't tend to buy more than one product.
However, as this glided through my hair and watched as it distributed product from root to ends - I thought, "where have you been all my life?" I had less shed hair than with my wide tooth comb and it was just awesome. I'm going to buy 2 more tomorrow.
Shoot I hope they never go out of business.

I'm sold! I bought it and hadn't used it. However, I was with my niece last week when she was taking her twists out. She has THICK, LONG 4 hair and taking twists out takes forever and she loses a ton of hair. I suggested we use the tangle teaser. Exhibit A:
Taking Twists out before using TT
Back half detangled and put in big twist (the TT went through easily and she said it DID NOT hurt)
Totally detangled and stretched in back. We finished untwisting and detangling in about 30 mins. (three people-her mom, me, and her). Usually, it's a 2 hour job.
and after a press, curl, and trim:
Also, I used it to deep condish my girls' hair after they went to a pool party last week. It's easy to detangle my oldest but her hair is getting long so it cut down my time. My youngest HATES getting her hair done. It's fine but dense and tighter curled. She loves the TT and asks me to use it all the time. If this helps me keep her still while I do her hair, that's all I need.

Do I remember, nothing but TEARS.......I had way too much hair for such a tool, and really can't imagine it now. I am going to continue reading.

Lately I have been using it to distribute shampoo and condish for my weekly wash in the shower. I am using way less product and the product is distributing more evenly throughout my hair.
I am so sorry for the ladies this product doesn't work for, bc for me it is the best thing I have bought in a while.
My daughter is really benefitting. I just can't say enough ab this thing.

I do not use mine on wet hair. I prefer using it after I'm 100% air dried. I find it works so much better for me at this step and it stretches out the ng nicely. I typically don't comb my hair while wet anyway as my hair is too fragile in that state and easily broken. I did, however, try using it while wet and although it worked good, I think it worked far better on my dry hair.

See ^^this is what I'm talking about. I've promised myself I would work on my detangling skills this year, but having super-kinky 4b hair makes this a challenge to say the least. But if it works for virtuenow, clear the pool cuz I'm jumping in too
. I'll just add this to the list of recent purchases I have to explain to the DH...
I'm not scheduled to take down my cornrows for another 3 weeks, but I'll be sure to post a review then.

4b checking in to give HUGE props to the Tangle Teezer! I had less tangles with this thing than i do using my wide tooth shower comb! I was REALLY impressed and my detangling time was much less with just a few shed hairs. I've used it on wet and damp hair and it worked really well, i haven't tried it on dry hair yet but i will soon.
it took me a minute or two to get it figured out and to figure out what i needed to do to get each section detangled properly but in the end it came out great. My only complaint is that they need to make one for left-handers like myself, its awkward to hold if you're a lefty considering it was made for right-handers.

Another 4b natural checking in. I was very skeptical about this but I was in Sally's and it was calling my name.
I used it last night and I was pleasantly surprised. I can definitely see how it distributes the product evenly and will save me money. My twists and ends are amazingly smooth, I will continue to use this and may purchase another one.

I used this for the first time on Sunday!!! Oh-Em-Gee!!! Where has this thing been all my natural life. It was so easy to use. NO Tugging. NO Pain. And I was left with smooth detangled hair. LOVING IT. I did a product review on the Teezer at my blog. Go check it out. And if you don't have one you shoud def think of investing in one.

I'm going to buy about 3 today.. LOL.. omg.. this seems like such a holy grail, esp for transitioners like myself..
Thank you all who posted reviews; they were very helpful!!! I cant wait to give my review, although I wont use this till March when I take out my braids. But that should definitely allow me to see how good of a product this thing really is. Detangling is no joke when your hair has been braided up for three months.

I think it would be really good for transitioners. The bristles are really flexible so that helps to eliminate the snagging and ripping out of hair. It's very gentle (even though it sounds very rough).
If you buy it from Sally's Beauty you can always try it and if you don't like it you can return it.

I'm Relaxed and used the TT for the first time yesterday. I've had it for weeks, but felt a little intimidated by all the Teeth.
But when I kept hearing how well it was working for Naturals, I decided to give it a try. It was very smoothing, lost little to no hair and actually worked better than my Jilbere.
So....for my My Relaxed Sisters.....Don't sleep on the TT! You DEFINITELY need this in your Product/Tools Arsenal.
