I don't know if I should get it now. :look: I have some super thick hair so hopefully, it'll work for me.

Another rave review.

Background: I'm natural 4ab. Put in individual braids with my own hair the week before thanksgiving. What was supposed to be a 1 month style turned into 2 months secondary to illness and hectic work schedule. Finally took them down over the last week. Then hand detangled and wore my hair in natural bun for the last week. In brief my hair was a HAM.

With the tangle tweezer I just detangled in 45 mins. Yes 45 mins! Luvvvvv it!

Had a mini brainstorm (or epiphany?) yesterday while using my TT.

It gently removes shed hair. So if you see a bunch of hair at your ends when using it, that's all of the shed hair, not broken hair (I mean unless you're rough and yanking it out of your scalp). So you might need a comb or heck even your fingers to pull out the shed hair. But it definitely doesn't yank out any of my hair that isn't ready to come out.

I bought one on amazon tonight. I'm transitioning and taking down my weave next month after a total of two months. I hope I like it. I'll be 5 months post. Detangling is a mess for normally at this many months post.

Came back to say that I continue to love the Tangle Teezer. Just to remind everyone I am 100% 4b. This brush just glides through my hair.

But a suggestion: I personally DO NOT advise using the Tangle Teezer on sopping wet hair drenched with conditioner. It actually informs the consumer in its manual NOT to do this. Instead, it works best when my hair is mildly damp. I was honestly never an absolute fan of detangling in the shower anyway.

Hmm...it's recommended for transitioners, too, I see. I may have to pick this up when I take my sew-in out.

Is it good for a transitioner?

Sent from my Zio using Long Hair Care Forum App


It's perfect for us transitioners. It doesn't pull at the line of demarcation so there is no breakage there. It easily detangles natural hair and the relaxed ends with no problem. I've been using it the past few weeks and I couldn't be happier with it. I even used it on dry hair the other night and man...I need to buy another one in case they sell out!

yikes..i was using it to distribute shampoo and condish when i wash my hair....so sopping wet and drenched with product but i actually liked it bc i wasn't using as much product and the product was being distributed more evenly. i didn't have any issues with doing this, but lemme stop being like my DH and go get the instruction manual and actually read it...:lol:

Oh, if it works for you, continue! If it helps you distribute the product, that's good! :grin: My hair just couldn't handle it.

I just tried it today after rinsing out my deep conditioner and wow...where has this been all my life? This thing works great! I never really been a big fan of the denman, because it seemed to rip out my hair and break my hair (especially the ends), but with the tangle teaser I didn't see any broken hairs at all, just some shed hair (and very little at that). Love this! :grin:

I had no issues using it in the shower, it worked just as well as when i tried it out the shower, wet, damp or dry i luuuuuuuv this thing! I dont know how but it even seems to help with my SSKs which were really getting on my nerves, so if for no other reason, i'll use it for that!

There is no board.
I use mine in the shower when rinsing out condish under the shower stream :look:. No problems here, no snags, no knots, just smooth as glass feel. I use it when rollersetting too so stone me. :lol:

I wonder how this would work on my golden retriever. She get knots behind her ears and her tail fringes tangle something awful. I may just buy another just for her.

Finally got around to using the TT today after w & c my dd's hair. She's natural 4b.Normally detangling is not pretty for us, she is mad & wants me to hurry up so she can go outside to play. Guess what? I was able to moving quickly & got her outside in half the time.

Her hair was full of our moisturizing mix & it helped to distribute the product throughout her hair. So that part of the instructions didn't apply to us. DD also complimented on the fact that it was massaging or tickling her scalp as she put -she said it felt good.

One other tip for 4 type naturals-it helps greatly to use small sections.

Luv it!!! Gonna get a spare one just in case. The only downside is that it would slip out of my hand several times.

So I bought my TT lifesaver, miracle aparatus today. I must confess that for the past 3 and 1/2 months I have been intimidated by my hair. I have never had to deal with my hair this long and in 2 different textures. When I straightened in September and saw the lenght and volume of my hair, ever since then I have been petrified of a set back. So I manipulate only to wash and then back in a bun it goes.

I am the most impatient detangler. I might be MBL by now if I were more gentle and patient when detangling. My technique is probably off too. Anyhow, this is also the time of year that I shed more than usual. Add that to my worries of losing volume and I'm almost in tears when I have to detangle.

Well, the TT is so amazing that, detangling didn't take as long and I lost less hair than is typical for me. I neglected to read the directions so I use it with a head full of DC (Kenra MC amped up with EVCO and EVOO). I was so please with the TT that I was brave enough to attempt a braidout for the 1st time since September. It was a breeze and again I lost much less hair (about 50 strands). Usually after completing a braid out I lose as much hair as a weeks worth of shedding.

So, I'm really pleased. This transition is no joke, but I have another weapon in my arsenal to help me go the distance :)!

Back again with another rave about this tool. I just used to wrap my relaxed 4b hair after deep conditioning & it work great.

^^^ i hope so cuz they need to put a handle on that thing with a rubber grip. ♥

See!! :yep:

I like using the brush in my hand bc I think that helps it be more gentle, but I'ma need it to have a handle like this or something so it doesn't fly outta my hand when it's slippery with product!!!!!:lol: They ain't gotta change the design, just add the handle!!!
