The tangle teaser is the best for my dd's tangly, fine, slightly wavy hair.
I bought one of the Goody Jojoba-infused brushes last night. I separated my hair into two sections, and attempted to brush it very gently. It took a long time to get through it, and I ended up with a lot of hairs in the brush. Hopefully, they were shed hairs. I can't really tell if I like this brush or not. I just hope I didn't break too many hairs off. My hair is thin enough already.

Tangle Teezer. Works great! I have a Mason Pearson BBB, a couple of Denmans, and other brushes, but I LOVE my Tangle Teezer. It really does detangle more easily, quickly and gently than anything I have ever used. I also have several very good combs, but like the TT better than them too. I am giving five as Christmas gifts to long haired friends.

That is where I bought all of mine - cheapest place I could find for an American to get them, cheaper than e-bay even.
There is a Tangle Teezer thread on the products forum.
Do you start brushing at the ends first and slowly work up? I use the Goody Jojoba brush on my son, who has a very sensitive scalp and can't stand any kind of brushing or combing. His hair is super fine, pin straight, but only shoulder length in back.

I might look into tangle teaser, but it seems to expensive. If we were still in London I'd just grab one!
I am quite interested in the Goody Jojoba Oil Infused Brush. Can that be used on wet or dry hair?
Denman's seem popular too... I'll check the shops.

It is meant to be used on dry hair. Also, you can't use it with a blow dryer because the bristles can melt.

I had all kinds of issues with both combs and brushes. Finally bought a Conair tourmalne ceramic cushion brush at Walgreens.
Not only have I never had a tangle but it made my hair shinier and for some reason I didn't need oil or conditioner anymore after that. It has also significantly reduced my frizz.
I hope you find something that works for you and meets your needs.
Thanks for that info. I do tend to use a blow dryer. One thing I hate about brushes is how fuzz and such gets stuck under the little balls at the end of the brush. It makes it so hard to clean! Did someone in this post say that you should look for a brush without balls on the end? Or is it healthier for hair to have the balls at the end?
The person who said Tourmalne Ceramic Cushion Brush... I've heard Tourmalne ceramic is supposed to be very good.
Thanks,
