Very good product

I've had a classic, Denman brush exactly like this since I was a young girl and it's still the best brush I have ever used.The brush has smooth, nylon bristles that have rounded tips. They are set into a rubber base that flexes so it's very gentle on the scalp. The bristles are set fairly wide apart so it's fantastic for brushing and detangling thick, long and curly hair without pain or damage to your hair. However, it works beautifully on any hair.It's very easy to clean and is almost indestructible. The bristles never break or get rough. The handle is impervious to water and is virtually unbreakable. I've had my old one for at least 20 years old and the only reason I bought this new one is that I accidentally left the old one behind when I was out of town. I'm thrilled that this new one is exactly like my old one (except I chose the black handle instead.) I also got a second one for my teen son with waist length hair because I was tired of him taking off with my brush. ;-)

My cousin initially told me about the Denman brush, and after doing some research, I decided that I'd like to make my curls pop too. I only use this brush on my hair when it's wet, using any brush or comb dry on my hair is a huge nope. That being said, I was pretty annoyed that the handle is so smooth with absolutely zero grip to it. Not paying attention to that in the pictures was on me, but who the heck would design a brush handle to have no grip, especially one for detangling, styling, or for use with wet hair? If I -just- have wet hands, it might be okay to hold, but any sort of product makes this brush a literal pain and a half to use, especially if you have unruly hair like me that instantly "tangles" after being detangled. There are other models that have slightly different handles and are made from different materials, but if I recall correctly, they were either more expensive, or didn't have the number of rows I wanted.The color of the brush wasn't something I was concerned with. The "red" looks more like a dark pink, but again, I didn't really care since it's just a brush. The black is nice and rich, and the gold accents are nice. I opted for the 9 row over the others because (if I remember correctly) one of the YouTube videos I watched said that their curls seemed more defined with it over the others, and I figured it didn't matter much since I could take out some of the rows if necessary. Which, by the way, I found out that it's really hard to do that. Maybe I'm a bit weak and afraid of destroying the brush, but I decided after a few tugs that I wasn't going to try to pull out the center to remove the rows—I'm fine with the brush as it is.As far as its actual function, I'm completely satisfied with the brush. I always detangle big knots with a comb first, then come behind it with the brush. I've found that I have less hair in the brush if I do this. It's a personal preference since, again, my hair is a 4c nightmare that shrinks and coils and snuggles up with itself. Anyway, when I use the brush, I add leave in conditioner and the wetline extreme gel, and it leaves my curls looking AMAZING! I don't look like I have a weird halfro (not a typo) and the definition makes me sooo happy. Cute wash and go's are actually possible for me now, something I never thought possible after I started my natural hair journey 10 years ago and had a less-than-perfect attempt at one of those curly hair YouTube tutorials. Sadly, I still deal with an unthinkable amount shrinkage, something which seems a bit more extreme when I use the brush.I see a lot of reviews where people possibly got fake brushes, and I did research on that as well before buying it. The brush is made to come apart... It's clearly made of different colors and plastics, so I'm not sure why anyone would assume that it's going to stay one piece, forever, even if glued. Also, on fake brushes, the logo will be in the wrong spot and the "Made in the U.K" bit will be missing or it will say something else. The one I received had all the right placings and brandings, so I either got lucky, or others aren't buying from the Denman store on Amazon, so they're getting fakes.Regardless, the brush I received works great, and looks great, but Denman definitely needs to address the handle issue.

I bought this as a recommendation to get my hair trained to curl after washing. This absolutely worked and has been extremely helpful detangling hair. I have 4C hair and aside from that my hair is very very thick, so this makes my wash day much easier! Also, I was impressed by the way it comes apart, so you can clean it properly. Especially for those of you who do not. like to see hair between brushes, thus allows you to clean to get rid of it all. If there was one thing I would say is that even with this feature, it can eventually make it challenging to stay together. All in all, this is an excellent buy!

No really. This is the best brush ever. I have super kinky curly hair and this brush is a life savor. I'm 21 and I for the last 21 have struggled to be able to brush my hair. This brush goes through my hair and detangles it and then helps reform my curls. Atractched are two photos, the one with the sunglasses is with using the brush (and finding eco styler gel with flaxseed and diffusing spring in Florida so super humid) but the other was before finding this magical brush and just using a wet brush and letting my hair air dry (this is in the winter in Ohio low to no himidity). Give this brush a try and buy. Every time I use it I don't want to stop brushing my hair. For me it works best reforming my curl when I use it in the shower and my hair is soaking wet and then I apply gel (my hair dries very quickly) but really really I'm begging you to buy this. It is the best brush ever. I went from having to get knots cut out of my hair growing up to having this brush and loving it. I'm telling everyone (even strangers I see with curly hair) to buy this.JUST BUY IT. In 2 days your life will be changed.
