Product Review: The biggest waste of hair related money I've ever spent
Since I've done my big chop and went natural, I've been on blogs, sites and youtube channels and as if in the holy grail of natural hair; the Denman brush has seemed to be every natural head's staple hair care tool.
Although I already owned a brush that detangled my hair to extreme satisfaction, I decided to break down and buy one to see what all the hype was all about.
I was so excited to finally own a denman brush that I had to use it right away. I section my hair off into six sections to wash, condition, and detangle. With my hair soaking wet I apply my conditioner and proceed to detangle.
First stroke... Starting at the ends... Disappointed. I created sub sections so I can get a better handle on things... Disappointed. Applied more condish...then more water...A little less disappointed. I finished one section 15 mins later, looked at the brush and seen the same amount of hair I normally see when I'm done with my whole head. This brush REALLY isnt for me. I even tried again with my leave in/sealing regime... Then I finally nixed the damn thing and ran for my ouchless brush without looking back.
All in all, there is not one good word I can say about a denman (or a look-a-like). I wanted to love this brush, and I gave it more than a fair chance. Lesson learned in following the crowd; especially in hair care.
