Promising review: "I’m currently transitioning from relaxed hair to natural hair and I have almost six months' worth of new growth. I’ve used this after washing and conditioning to detangle and it works really well.
I actually feel like my hair is being detangled properly. I’ve also used this on dry hair after taking down a protective style and I really like it a lot. I wish I had this sooner, it makes detangling easy.

Whichever one you get, you're def gonna have some voluminous, luscious locks. Promising review: "I forgot how amazing a quality round boar brush can be when blow-drying your hair! I have thick hair. Deceptively thick.
Like every time I sit in a salon chair, I hear, 'Wow! You have so much hair!' I can hear the dread in their voice at the thought of having to blow it out. I always leave with a wet head and do it myself. This brush delivers on the blowout! It leaves me with hair that is sleek, smooth, polished, and shiny and lasts for 4–5 days with no touch-ups needed.
Highly recommend!!!" — Buffy Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in three sizes). 3.

Anything to cut down on the time that your arm has to be sore from brushing is honestly a win. Promising review: "When my new hairdresser suggested I purchase this brush, I kind of rolled my eyes.
I mean, a hairbrush is a hairbrush — they all work the same. Boy, was I wrong! To say a hairbrush can be life-changing may sound dramatic, particularly from a 44-year-old woman who’s never really put forth an effort with her frizzy mop of hair, but this brush (and an awesome hairdresser) has suddenly given life to my hair. I’m regularly getting compliments on my hair.
I’m able to still be super lazy with my hair and have it look great. I could not possibly be more pleased with this thing." — J.

Check out this TikToker using this bad boy to detangle their matted 4c hair. Promising reviews: "I absolutely love my brush!!! I am tender-headed, and finding a brush that gets rid of tangles without feeling as if chunks of my hair are being ripped out is amazing! I don’t have to use detangling spray with this brush, and it works fast to get the tangles out. It used to take me 2+ hours to brush out my hair (long, easily tangles), but now it only takes 45 minutes.
I love mine so much I have recommended this brush to everyone I know, and bought one for my in-laws." — Alyssa Reed "I saw this advertised on Instagram when a mom couldn't detangle her daughter's thick, and there was no editing, and the brush just glided through the little girl's hair. I was skeptical bc of 'movie magic,' but it wasn't edited, so I went ahead and bought it to see for myself.
This brush lives up to the hype. It detangles my hair like no other. I'm African American and I got one for my niece and her mom (her mom is Mexican and white with very curly hair), and my friend has one for her daughter (Persian/Black with very coarse hair).
It works like a miracle for all of us. " — Dani3ll Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in 27 colors). 5.
A no-pull wet and dry detangling brush with anti-static nylon bristles that'll help distribute the natural oils in your scalp for a silky, shiny look. This baby gently separates knots rather than totally pulling 'em out and it's perfect for all, yes ALL, hair types. Promising reviews: "I realized that the shower hairbrush I’ve had for years probably had mold growing in the padded base.
I love this brush as it’s all hard plastic and will allow the brush to dry after using it post-shower. I was shocked to find that the design of it actually gives it a lot of flex, so it’s really comfortable to use. Feels like a padded/spongy brush!" — Anne Schwab " This is the best hairbrush I have owned in my 38 years of life, without a doubt! It detangles like magic, doesn't pull, and leaves my hair looking fantastic, completely eliminating frizz and emphasizing my natural wave.
Even my young kids like it and that is really saying something! It's also very attractive. I strongly recommend!" — Marjorie L. Spaeth Get it from Amazon for $8.

Who needs a salon when you've got this bad boy? Promising review: "I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Aire 360 Blowout kit! This is my first time owning anything from this brand, and my hair appreciates this tool big time! I love doing my hair at home to save money at the salon, and this kit takes the cake on how easy it is to do it all by yourself. I love its noise level; it isn’t loud when operating (compared to the Shark FlexStyle kit ). I love how easy the base is to hold and grip, leaving my arms feeling good while using it.
My favorite attachments are the drying concentrator and oval brush. The concentrator helped prep my hair for the oval brush to take my salon finish look to the finish line. I love how the oval brush didn't catch or rip out hair.
Beware because this can deliver the heat. Overall, my blowout lasted a solid four days before the grease became too noticeable to wear my hair down freely. My hair had lots of volume and shine and felt so light on my head after I finished styling it.
I’m always going to use this kit at home. And I mean always! I can’t forget the tote bag that helps store the kit, making it super easy to take everywhere! Where has T3 been all of my life? " — Tall One Get it from Amazon or T3 (available in two colors) for $299.99.

What impressed my husband the most was the versatility of this brush. Not only does it work wonders on his hair, but it also does an exceptional job on his beard. The bristles reach through facial hair, ensuring a neat and well-groomed appearance.
The 100% boar bristles provide excellent control and smoothness, helping to define and enhance his natural beard waves effortlessly. The sturdy construction and comfortable grip make it easy for him to incorporate into his daily routine, and he appreciates the durability. Overall, the brush has exceeded our expectations, proving to be an indispensable tool for anyone looking to elevate their hair and beard grooming game.

Promising review: "At the start of 2024, I began my curly hair journey, fully switching to pro-curl products — diffusers, balms, creams, etc.
My hair had a healthy but light waviness UNTIL I got this Define EdgeLift Brush by Bounce Curl. THIS BRUSH WORKS! I actually have spiral curls when I use this styling brush on my hair. This is not a drill.
This is the real deal! I have gone from wild hair lady to strangers complimenting me wherever I go, which is just a nice added bonus to finally liking my hair at 40+ years old. =) Thanks, Bounce Curl!" — Hannah Get it from Bounce Curl for $26.99 (available in two colors).

After using this product along with a coconut oil moisturizer for three days, my scalp is already healing. The product is easy to hold, easy to clean, and feels great on an itchy scalp. I also don’t have dandruff flakes at all anymore.

An ergonomically designed detangling brush that'll gently unravel even the toughest tangles without ripping out your hair. You hear that? Me neither, cuz you can use this for your kid, and they won't be screaming in pain while you brush their hair! Witch-freakin-craft. Promising review: ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS OOOOMMMMGGG!!! I was skeptical at first, but given the reviews, I figured I’d give it a try.
I’m African American and have curly, kinky coils...
in between the realm of type 3/4, IDK, to be honest. All I know is that when I went to detangle my fro after a long day, this brush easily slid through. I had to double-take! I didn’t have to start with a wide-tooth comb; I just dove right in.
My hair is THICK! After each stroke, I kept looking at the brush like, 'What type of sorcery is this!?' And to top it off, ZERO BREAKAGE!!! Buy this brush!!!!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 10 colors and two-packs). 14.

The mirror is a bonus because I always pack a small mirror when traveling. We are traveling to Africa and need everything to be compact and sturdy, so this is perfect. I recommend.

It works on all types of hair, from straight to curly to wavy, and despite its name, it can *also* be used on dry hair. Promising review: " I never thought I'd have a hair brushing experience where I wasn't literally tearing out my hair.
NO LONGER! My hair is extremely, ridiculously thick — not curly, but a little wavy. The kind that's constantly getting tangled and is a pain to work through even when dry. I bought this product hoping for a lifeline, and this was IT! Never before has a brush glided through my hair, all silky smooth.
It's a pain getting the hair off the bristles, but a miracle that it can even brush my hair to begin with. I've snapped combs brushing my hair before. Do you realize how ridiculous that is? (Yes, they were cheap, but still).
I'm sorry if I'm being over dramatic, but this thing has simply been the best $8 I've ever spent. I don't even like the color purple, but this brush has been so good to me that I don't even mind it now." — Jessica Huynh Get it from Amazon for $6.
