What's so special about a Denman Brush?

[Uber]

You know I bought one the other day as I had seen so many people use it in their detangling process and I was looking for a way to improve my method. My hair is too curly at the ends for the denman brush and it felt like I was ripping them. I may as well have used a fine tooth comb. Didn't work for me

I bought this brush for $8 today at Sally's but I'm sort of scared to use it because It just looks like it will rip my hair out. So I'm bumping this up for more comments on the denman brush on relaxed hair

It really is more suited for natural hair. Good luck with yours, though.

it detangles very well for me without pulling and ripping my hair. ♥

Hmm. I'm relaxed and it works great for both my hair and my daughter's hair. I heart my denman brush. I jokingly call it Den Man, my hair husband. My daughter has issues with tangles every wash. Her hair is relaxed, I use the denman brush after putting in conditioner. Sometimes I use it during the rollersetting process to smooth big sections of hair. I also use it to wrap my hair after roller setting and during the week when I re-wrap it. It works better than paddle brushes to wrap in my opinion. I also have thick hair so maybe that makes a difference.

I had to remove 3 rows of it to get it to stop yanking out my hair even though I use the shower comb first. It works much better for me this way, plus I think my hair is too thick to use ALL the rows. Though, it seems to make my hair MORE frizzy than it was before I used it. As a result, I won't use it to define my hair but only to help distribute conditioner and stuff better.

I altered mine by pulling out every other row of teeth. Works great now!

I love it for shingling and defining curls!

for me the denman causes more strinkage..Making my hair spiral ...I think I will like it more once my hair is longer..

I love it! It detangles well and it makes DD's curls pop!

I have a real Denman brush, (don't know which one, only that it's a small one) and I have an inexpensive knock-off which is larger. I had to remove every other row of teeth on the big one, now I like it even better than the real one! It's more firm than the real Denman.

I love it because it can get through my thick hair and it feels sooooo good on my scalp as I brush! I don't really use it to define my curls, but I can definitely feel my hair curling up when I use it to distribute conditioner! It works as a fantastic detangler as well. Much better than any of my wide tooth combs!

I also like to stretch my hair at night by brushing it back and tying it down, and my Denman knock-off is the only thing that can really help me do that!

This is what I don't like about the denman. It gives me even more shrinkage than i already have.
