Promising review: “I have 2c/3a hair, medium to long length, and live in the South Central US, where there is fairly high humidity most of the year. It’s taken me a few years of getting used to skipping daily washes and minimizing my blow dryer use, partly b/c I never really knew how to style my hair on air-dry days. I’d end up with a frizzy A-frame shaped do, or a lifeless, gel-crusted mop.

I tried this brush after seeing it in a master class about hair. The woman with 3c used it to brush through small, damp sections of hair, then twist the section around her finger, let it loose, and then onto the next section. I tried this method, leaving my hair pretty damp and using a good curl cream applied throughout. I used the brush to also go back and gently give some lift from the root once I kind of had it placed where I wanted. I used a light hair spray as I finished each layer of sections.

I’ve been doing this style once or twice a week now for a couple of months. This brush has made a difference in my confidence working with my hair. Even in dead summer, the frizz is minimal, my waves/curls keep their shape without the necessity of crusty gel, and I have actual definition.

Not only has it helped me style on air-dry days, but my day two style is easier to manage. I can use this to gently brush out the sections to give me a nice, soft wave without it immediately frizzing. If I brush it out the night before and put it up, it’s even easier to deal with on day two. I don’t exactly understand how the brush does what it does, but I’d absolutely recommend it for wavy hair folks who want to define and control.

Besides liking the fact that it works, I like that the brush is lightweight, seems pretty durable so far, and is at a good price point. The handle is comfortable, and the bristle pad gives. Just a great brush all around.” —AM
