Denman D3 7 Rows Curly Hair Brush Detangling Detangling Detangling Shaping Curls Defining Hair Brush for Men and Women

This is my second purchase of this brush (only bought a second one because I forgot my first brush somewhere else). I love this brush! For context, I have thick curly hair (about type 3b to type 2a but mostly 3b). This brush detangles my hair so quickly, gives my scalp a nice mild scalp massage and does a great job at maintaining my curls. The brush quality is great, like I said I’ve used my first brush for around 2 years with no issues. The gold “denman” logo only slowly started fade at the end of the 2 years which is great quality to me. Just fyi, I do not submerge my brush or use it in the shower. I would recommend rinsing it after use to maintain a clean brush without any build up. May be hard to clean given the bristles are pretty tight together. I love this brush and probably won’t ever replace it as it’s hard to find a good brush for curly hair!! Highly recommend.

If you purchased this brush to de-tangle your hair, unless you have short to medium, STRAIGHT and fairly FINE hair, you are going to be drastically disappointed! Try taking out a few rows of pins and it might work ok as a de-tangle brush. OR, better yet, skip this one and get yourself a proper paddle brush (or wide tooth comb) that is specifically meant to tackle wet tangled hair. Enough said about that, onward to my review why I purchased this brush.I have 2B-3A curly, dry-ish hair that always could use a boost of product and styling methods to make it curlier and to have the style last. This brush is perfect to STYLE your wet curly hair (once it has been de-tangled). I would say I have fine to medium density hair (but tons of it) and use a light leave-in AND then a styling cream (some use a hybrid creamy gel if it has some slip) to style my hair with this brush. You need some SLIP or it is not going to work. What the brush does is distribute your product (styling cream) evenly, helps to separate the strands, and because of the half round shape, can put a nice bend to your hair. All of that helps your hair clump and curl much better than using your fingers alone. Think of it a bit like finger coiling without all the time and effort.Depending on your curl type, you can get anywhere from nice loose waves to tight ringlets. I suggest checking out YouTube for some pointers on the different methods of use for this brush. Also, "seal" your styling with a gel; it will help hold it for a few days.My last "tips" are what brush to purchase. I have layered hair and my shortest hair (on the top of my head) is about 3 inches long up to bra strap length hair and the D3 works best for me on my longer hair. I feel that the D3 is a bit big for my shortest length hair and I have been experimenting with the D33 and D14 . So far, I think the top of my head is too short to get much benefit from any Denman brush so I do a combination of finger coiling and twisting the D33. Unfortunately that is also my "straightest" hair and hoping with time and the Denman I can train it to curl a bit better.If you have very long hair, you may prefer the D4 as there is a bit more surface area to make your styling go a bit faster. I have seen styling of the D3 vs the D4 and the end results are not that noticeably different. The D5 is similar but a heavier brush but I have never used it to know of any difference in styling your curly hair.And finally the D14 and D33 are best for shorter hair. I find they work ok on layered hair, but I would suspect either would be absolutely perfect for a single layer bob.One final note if you have very thick hair. You may wish to remove a row or two of the pins or else you might never be able to get the brush through your hair, no matter how much of a slippy cream you apply. You could also try the D41, or Free Flow. They come with less pins to start.Hope this exceptionally long post has been helpful. Good luck on your curly girl journey!

Great brush. Definitely stimulates your scalp and helps brush out loose hairs.

Nice brush but I expected the bristles to be softer. Very firm on the scalp. Great size and quality though.

As someone with thick, coarse Type 4 hair (but larger curls), I needed a brush that could help define my curls without tearing through them.What I noticed right away is how well it clumps and defines curls when used on damp hair with product. I mostly use it during my styling routine or to refresh older curls and it consistently helps bring definition back without excessive pulling or breakage. It also works for detangling in SMALL sections when my hair is conditioned.The brush feels sturdy and I like that the cushion has some give. It doesn’t feel rigid against the scalp and it’s also easy to take apart and clean, which is a big plus when dealing with product buildup or shedding hair.That said, over time, the bristles did shift slightly from their original shape, likely because of the density and resistance of my hair type. It still works, but I can tell the brush has had to work hard so durability might be a concern for long-term use on very thick textures.

i just got this brush two weeks ago and i’ve been using it every time i do my hair. for reference i have THICK 3c hair. for anyone with a similar hair type (don’t make the same mistake i did by getting this version), id recommend getting a wider brush with more bristles unless you’re fine with separating your hair in LOTS of little sections to style. that’s what i had to do and it’s made getting ready take a little longer but this brush will give you results instantly. just brushing through a piece of hair once already gives me more definition than any other styling brush i’ve used.overall rating: this brush is REALLY good but make sure to get a larger one if you have thicker hair! i personally think it’s worth the price since other reviews are mentioning how it lasts a decent amount of time

Curly Hair Must HaveMy wife's hair dresser suggested using this brush to style her curly hair. She loves it! Brushes her wet hair in sections and lets it air dry. The curls look amazing. Such a simple brush, but it works wonderfully.

Great brush to use on natural hair
