If you're looking for a curly and natural curly hair brush that's great for detangling wet hair and won't snag and break your hair, you're definitely in the right place, especially if you're looking for a Tangle Teezer! Tangle Teezer brushes have been around for a long time and are some of the best detangling brushes, especially if you have curly hair. Here I will explain the difference between the Tangle Teezer Ultimate Brush, the Tangle Teezer Original and the Naturally Curly Tangle Teezer.
Which Tangle Teezer Brush should you use to detangle curly hair
The Ultimate Detangler Naturally Curly is the Tangle Teezer for thick curly hair, on the tangle teezer website this brush is recommended for curly hair type 3c to 4c. At the moment, this brush is available in two colors: mango pink and purple passion. As for the dimensions, you can only find these brushes in one size. This brush is what you need in your curly hair routine if you have long, thick and curly hair.
What's special about the Ultimate Tangle Teezer Naturally Curly?
This brush is specially designed with two sets of teeth: the longer ones help detangle 3c to 4c curls, while the shorter ones serve to smooth hair and prevent frizz. Furthermore, the teeth of this brush are much more rigid, although they remain flexible. This brush is perfect for detangling wet afro-curly hair, as it has a comfortable handle that allows for optimal grip even with products in wet hair.
How to use the Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler Naturally Curly
Since this is a wet hair brush intended for detangling, it's best to use it when hair is damp or freshly washed. When using the Tangle Teezer Naturally Curly Wet Detangler Brush or any other detangling brush, always start at the ends of your hair, removing knots and slowly working towards the roots.
Tangle Teezer-The Ultimate Detangler Naturally Curly
The Tangle Teezer Original Thick and Curly
The Tangle Teezer Original Thick and Curly was one of Tangle Teezer's first detangling brushes. As with the Ultimate Naturally Curly Brush, this brush also has two-tiered teeth and is a fantastic brush for curly hair. The longer teeth are much softer, which allows for flexible movement of the bristles which helps remove knots and tangles from curls.
The big difference with this brush compared to the Ultimate is that it doesn't have a handle and was designed this way because its shape allows you to naturally grip the brush while detangling curls.
The Original Thick & Curly
Tangle Teezer The Ultimate Detangling Brush (The Wet Detangler)
The Tangle Teezer Ultimate is a brush for detangling wet hair available in three sizes: mini, regular and large. What is a wet hair detangling brush? Basically, a brush that you can use in the shower to get rid of knots and tangles. It is also very useful for dispensing products such as shampoo and conditioner. Hair is very fragile when wet, it tends to stretch a lot because it absorbs water and combing and manipulating it when wet can lead to breakage. This brush was created to reduce breakage thanks to its flexible two-level bristles. This wet brush comes in various colors and is great for detangling all types of hair, including curly hair. It's gentle on wet hair, as noted by Tangle Teezer, its main goal is to detangle curly hair.
Tangle Teezer The Ultimate Detangler
What is the difference between Tangle Teezer Ultimate and Tangle Teezer Naturally Curly?
I was a little confused by the difference between the Tangle Teezer Ultimate and the Ultimate Detangler Naturally Curly for curly and frizzy hair. Like the other Tangle Teezer brushes, both have flexible bristles at two levels, the handle, and are for wet detangling (brushes for detangling damp/wet hair).
It can be said that the bristles of the Tangle Teezer Ultimate are softer and more flexible than those of the Naturally Curly Tangle Teezer. So, if you have tighter, thicker curly hair, the Tangle Teezer Naturally Curly might be the better choice since its bristles are stiffer. On the other hand, the Tangle Teezer Ultimate might be a little gentler on the scalp.
The Ultimate brush is also available in multiple colors, 14 and counting, and in three different sizes: mini, regular and large. It's also a great brush for detangling wet curly hair.
Which Tangle Teezer Brush Should I Get?
Ultimately, all Tangle Teezer brushes are great. The Ultimate Tangle Teezer would be my first choice because the bristles are much more flexible than the Tangle Teezer Naturally Curly, as I have thick type 4 curls but my scalp is also very sensitive. There is also the Tangle Teezer for brittle and thin hair, this brush has even more flexible bristles and is great for sensitive scalp and thin hair.
