I have a knockoff unbrush and I like it for serious detangling with conditioner and when rinsing conditioner out in the shower. My hair is thick and curly and not prone to a ton of breakage.
LittleQuill My hair's straight, fine and thin so I don't brush it wet, I brush it dry. I guess this might work better for the curly/kinky people who detangle during wash day
I'm fine

Hi H.e.l. I live for eating steak. In 2020, I was lean and strong. My hair looks good for my age, and I look younger than most women my age. My BIG MISTAKE was adding sourdough to my diet. Then sweets, treats, nuts and wine (I was not drinking since 2016).
Fast forward to today, I quit bread last year, and alcohol at Christmas. I have recently gone beef and water to sort out IBS symptoms. I have even given up tea and water.
I have shifted 8 kg of the 10 kg I gained.

Reviving this thread because for those that have the Unbrush, especially if you've had it for a number of months at least, how's it working out in the long term? Is it holding up well? Some reviewers complained that the handle broke or the brush insert came out of the handle "frame".I have 2 TT that I've been using for a number of years now, I think around 5 years. I love them. The compact one is in need of being replaced due to the silver coating peeling in places and I've been considering an Unbrush, partly out of curiosity of whether it will diminish any breakage I might be experiencing and partly because I kind of miss a handle. I know the TT does have a handle now too though. The TT is very gentle in my experience, but if the Unbrush is even moreso, I'd be willing to give it a try (maybe a Christmas list item). My hair is 2c/F/ii and a little past KL for reference.
Also, do you have the Plus model or the regular one? Not interested in the Mini.

I didn’t know about the plus model, I have a regular and a mini. I switched to them from TT’s about 6 months ago. They both look like new still. I prefer them over TT’s now, the tines are further apart which makes it easier to clean and appears to brush through my hair much more gentle than a TT. I have significantly less broken hairs and haven’t been needing to S&D much these last few months (but I also cut 2” of bleach damage 2 months ago so my hair is just in better condition over all and not completely due to the new brushes).
Maintaining 31” HL last bleach nov 2020 final goal is HL virgin hair by 6/2025 for my 40th

I definitely still prefer TT, although I don't really like either that much. But the TT is flexible, unbrush is not at all.
I like a basic paddle brush

I had an UnBrush the handle snapped in half. Within like 3 months. I prefer the Red By Kiss Vent Brush it was better and more sturdy. I Bought 2 its been like 6 months and I havent had to open the second one, quite DURABLE.
My hair is extremely fine, some strands are thin like spiderweb. I avoid breakage by avoiding brushes and combs. That's pretty much it.

Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this. I have heard about the handles snapping for some people but wasn't sure if they were using the Mini or had possibly gotten a dupe and didn't realize it. For anyone reading this that's interested in the Unbrush, the differences with dupes are pretty easily spotted if you know what to look for. The handle should say "Unbrush" and have a large hexagonal hole for hanging. the vent holes (on the regular and Mini) are also hexagonal. I've even seen an ad that says "the Real Unbrush" and it's clearly a fake! I don't want anyone to get ripped off.
Fair enough! Ya gotta do what's right for you. I wouldn't be able to get away with not brushing or combing though, at least not for more than a few days.
