Detangling Brushes

A good detangling brush is one of the most underrated tools in any haircare routine. The right brush makes detangling significantly faster, gentler and less damaging, which matters enormously for curly, long, colour-treated or fragile hair. We stock 17 professional detangling brushes here at Revive Hair Artists in Codsall from WetBrush Pro, Tangle Teezer, Olivia Garden, Barnum and Denman.

WetBrush Pro detangling brushes

The WetBrush Pro range is one of the most popular detangling brush brands in the world and a genuine favourite among both professional hairdressers and home users. The unique IntelliFlex bristles are designed to bend and flex as they pass through knots rather than dragging against them, which causes significantly less breakage and is noticeably more comfortable to use on wet or tangled hair. The WetBrush 2.0 Pro Detangler is available in Black, Pink and Purple and is a brilliant everyday detangling brush for all hair types. The WetBrush Pro Paddle Detangler is brilliant for longer hair where a larger brush head covers more hair in each stroke. The WetBrush Flex Dry is a brilliant option for detangling during blow-drying as it is designed to work on both wet and dry hair.

Tangle Teezer detangling brushes

Tangle Teezer is arguably the most well-known detangling brush brand in the world and the original Tangle Teezer design remains one of the most effective detangling tools available. The two-tier tooth system flexes as it passes through tangles rather than pulling against them, which is particularly gentle on fragile, colour-treated or over-processed hair. Tangle Teezer brushes are brilliant for both wet and dry detangling and are particularly popular for use on children's hair.

Olivia Garden detangling brushes

The Olivia Garden Care Ionic FingerBrush is a brilliant and innovative detangling option that uses a unique finger-shaped design to glide through tangles gently. The ionic technology also helps reduce frizz and add shine as you brush, making it a brilliant multi-purpose tool for detangling and finishing. It is particularly popular for curly and wavy hair where a standard bristle brush would disrupt the curl pattern.

Best detangling brush for curly hair

Curly hair needs extra care when detangling to avoid disrupting the curl pattern and causing frizz. The WetBrush Pro and Tangle Teezer are both excellent choices for curly hair as their flexible bristles work through tangles without separating the curl clumps. Always detangle curly hair when it is wet and conditioned, working from the ends upward toward the roots to minimise breakage.

Best detangling brush for fine or fragile hair

Fine or fragile hair breaks much more easily than healthy hair and needs the gentlest possible approach to detangling. The Tangle Teezer Fine and Fragile is specifically designed for this hair type and uses a softer, more flexible bristle configuration that is significantly gentler than a standard detangling brush. The WetBrush Pro is also an excellent choice for fine hair as the flexible bristles cause minimal tension during detangling.
