Update: I got the Denman D38 and YES! The fact that it detangled on my dry 4C beauty effortless I was all in and when my hair was wet ...............Mr. Denman was not playin!
I bought this brush because of Afrikan hair god. I love it. I feel like the ultimate tangle teezer was chewing up my fine strands. Particularly my ends. I love it more than the tangle teezer because it’s has a larger surface area so I can get through bigger sections quicker. I feel like it more gentle in my hair. Maybe because the teeth aren’t as closer as the tangle teezer. And after applying ahg tips for detangling hair, I’m all set. Now hopefully this time I won’t need another detangling brush
I think it's more expensive for you guys in the States due to shipping/taxes. It's a British brand so it's not as pricey here (£17.50). Still steep for a brush but not as extreme as $33.
I love that brush! I find it works even better when you start off brushing vertically *with the handle in the same direction as the ends of the hair* and then go through horizontally as you did in the video. It makes the experience even better 😆 I alternate between my kazmaleje paddle comb🥰, my d38 🥰and occasional my tangle teezer ultimate. I get a lot of breakage from tangle teezers sadly and they need to be replaced often.
My new favorite and only brush tool I use on my hair. My former favorite was the EZ detangler I got from Shanique Buntin. I use it on my wet hair, damp hair and blown out hair (I have a Revair Blowdrier) honestly best all round tool hands down. Hair stats: Kinky, 4B/4C, fine strands, medium density, high porosity, medium length. Guys seriously get it I have been using it for a month now no complaints so soothing, smoothing and detangling.
I just received the denman paddle brush and for $34 I would expect more of a solid feel from it. I feels to airy and I would expect heavier feeling brush. But they just keep making stuff with cheaper materials as years go on charging the hell out of us. Besides that it does detangle good.
I don’t think so. It took me 4 years to decide on buying the Felecia Leatherwood brush, lol! And I was still pressed about paying 18 bucks. And I must say, that was good investment. I found your channel a few months ago. I appreciate how consistent you are with your content.
Congrats on 50k! I joined about 2 years ago. You're so relatable and I know you'll always give your honest opinion regarding products, which I appreciate. You're my favorite natural hair influencer ❤
I compared my brush to the Felicia Leatherwood which is my go to. I like them both but I use the Denman as often as I remember because of the cost. Congratulations on 50k. It really should be more because you have a great personality and you’re relatable. think I’ve been subscribed at least two years.
I recently purchased the d38 denman brush and so far I love it. I'm able to detangle my hair in big sections and makes detangling so fast. Try detangling in big sections next time. Love you and your beautiful hair.
I’m so glad I found you during the pandemic. You give me life. You gave me a better technique to wash and detangle my hair. I’m so inlove with my hair since I’ve watched you. I love the products that I’ve bought due to your demo, except the Texture ID twisting butter. You were so right, the twist out was bomb but no shine at all.
I got this brush almost exactly a year ago. It is as good as they say. And that’s on my tangly, fine, full head of 4c and beyond hair. Unfortunately, it doesn’t last. A number of the bristles have fallen into the brush and pulling them out and back innplace doesn't fix it. I can literally hear bristles rattling around inside of it. It's such a shame because otherwise it's perfect
I saw this a couple of months ago but didn't bite the bullet because of the price. Denman is GOAT though! Even during the finger detangle only movement in the natural community, I still rocked hard with my Denman volumizer brush. This is a nice cross between the volumizer and the paddle brush. I might have to break my "no buying hair products/tools" ban and go ahead and get it. Thanks for the review, your type 4b helped seal the deal.
Honestly my hair doesn’t even need to be wet for this brush to work on my hair. Because I love myself I just make sure I have some semblance of slip to my hair. For example when I use it to brush my hair while blowdrying I actually don’t want my hair to be soaking wet.
It’s the best wet brush for my hair, roots and scalp- deman paddle brush d38! I have high porosity and it’s the best for detangling in prep for styling.
So I’ve been here with Lexi since the beginning of my going natural contemplation. After a 14 month transition I big chopped in May of 2016. I’m forever grateful to have found so early on...You’ve been a GODSEND♎️💜
I have been waiting for this! Thank you! I already got it, but I love to see other naturals liking what I like and I like this brush. I'm so glad I only tried 1 other detangling tool, cus this brush is so expensive, but I feel like it's worth it just because of how much hair it can handle. A good paddle speeds things up. Oh! And I got a bomb blowout with it. I'm terrible at blowdrying my own hair, but this worked out much better than my past attempts with the chase method. Lost way less hair, too.
It looks like I’ve been a subscriber for about a little over 2 years now, and I’ve loved every minute of it! Congratulations again on 50k! You deserve it!
Love you ma'am. For me and my house, I wouldn't pay that much for a brush. If it works for the masses, I say do what works for your hair. I always love your videos.
I believe I joined the kandidkinks gang last year when I big chopped. I was just looking for people with 4c low porosity hair. So glad I found your channel. Your recommendations has really helped. Can't wait til my hair gets to this length.
Love the D38 I bought a 2nd one about a month later. I'm able to detangle my thick dense hair in large sections in a short time, couldn't do that before. I've tried and wasted my money on many brushes and this works the best for me. The EZ detangling brush didn't work for me either.
This brush? Hahaha this brush...10 minute detangle, 22 inches of hair, 4 sections. PERIODT. If you have a lot of hair and struggle with detangling don't ask if it's worth it because it's worth it. I even blow dried my hair with it and it was a dream. No one can fight me on this brush!! Thx africanHairGod...truly a hair god
Hi. Thanks for the review. I have similar hair as yours, and I have tried a lot of detangling brush too. I use the Tangle Teezer Ultimate Finishing brush, and I love it. It has longer bristles, light weight and easy to hold. I would love for you to review it because I think it’s the best detangling brush for our type of hair, and a lot of people don’t know about it yet. Plus it’s only $18. Please purchase it and do a review comparing it with the other brushes. Trust, you won’t regret it. Thank you.😊
I love this brush too. It only takes a few passes and with medium sections, it's a breeze. But it frizzes up my hair without gel. I want to replace it eventually, do you think the thick and curly one has similar detangling capabilities? Without the frizziness?
@@Icyjessy1 I don't know. Most of the tangle teezer brushes are for detangling, which can cause frizz, not curl defining. You may want to try a different brush that is specifically for curl defining.
I know that I’ve been watching you for at least 2/3 years....and to answer if I’d spend the money for this particular Denman brush. I’d absolutely spend it. I am a not currently working in salon cosmetologist.
Love hate relationship with the handle held tangle tweezer. The teeth on the brush start bending and I have to continually replace it! So I’m in the business for quality and lasting. I hope I get it in this brush!
I have the Aveda paddle brush. I wonder how these two compare. I’ve been subbed I think around a year and a half (how do we find this info?) and have loved this channel from then! Congratulations on 50K!🎉🎉🎉
One aspect of whether a brush is worth the price. Is how easy it is to clean. A lot of paddle brushes you cant deconstruct them for easy cleaning. Thoughts?
I want that Denman for my son because it doesn’t have the little balls on the tips. I have another paddle brush without the ball tops, but it isn’t as heavy as I need.
People should stop telling people how to brush their hair. People brush their hair in directions that works best for them. With that said, I have the old school Denman brushes and I am a faithful Tangle Teezer user. However, I am going to purchase the Denman D38 brush. I wish they made the Denman brush with multiple length bristles because that is what I love about the Tangle Teezer. I feel that having multiple length bristles detangles easier.
Yes it's pricey but seems to work well.I loove my @kazmalege Curls plus paddle comb right now on my fine hair..my detangling sessions are really fast lately!have tried that tangle teezer and it didn't work for me and also the Ez brush was too flimsy for me too..i don't know if it would make sense to compare that paddle brush with the Kazmalege paddle brush..i joined in the fam in 2019!
I haven't used a detangling brush yet(i use a wide comb) 😭 but looking at how it worked on you i think i should get one ASAP (or rather save up for one lmaoo)
Maybe not for very kinkly hair...i thought that it was nice for my fine hair, but realizes that my coils would easily get stuck on the balls. Thats the nice thing about denman and tangle teezer, they don't have those little balls.
I don’t mind spending a little coin on a quality item that I can expect to keep for a long time. The question is do the bristles melt like the other denman brushes?
Congratulations on 50K! I've been a subscriber for about 3 years or so now. I just answered a questionnaire for Issa Rae's giving your RU-vid name for hair care and styles. I hope it pans out for a sponsorship for you. Glad you included those who don't have Instagram like me.
I think they have two different purposes for me. I love the kazmaleje for detangling my hair dry/damp or when my hair is stretched. I treat that paddle comb like an advanced wide tooth comb
Hey Lexi, ive been in the fam awhile. I subscribed back when u were reviewing curlboxes more frequently. I dont think im trying this one. I have the orginal one and never use it. I use the felicia leatherwood or a wide tooth comb.
@@KandidKinks Dang. Now Im here trying to decide on which color to choose on the website😩. But really if it doesn't pull/break my hair and cuts detangeling time in half than it worth it for me.
I’m looking at the denman, and it literally just looks like a paddle brush without the balls at the end but with the denman needle teeth. You can get a regular denman at the beauty supply store for pretty cheap, as well as a good quality paddle brush, so i do not see any reason for this to be so expensive. I use a regular paddle brush in my hair and i love it, especially using it vertically for detangling first. I do love the original denman brush but they really pushing it with this price.
that paddle comb is more for pre detangling or mid week detangling in place of a wide tooth comb.. I wouldn't use that on a wash day by itself without following up with a brush like this to smooth my hair. Hope that makes sense
The best part is that it's a paddle brush so I can do bigger sections which means shorter detangling time!🙌🏾 I like the Tangle Teezer too, but I feel like over time it does more mechanical damage as the shorter, flexible bristles kinda "pop" and "catch" on the strands instead of going through them. Idk🤷🏾♀️
