How to Use a Tangle Teezer

Start at the ends, work upward in small sections, and let the flexible bristles do the work without forcing through knots.

  1. Start with damp hair. Use on towel-dried or slightly damp hair for best results. The moisture helps the bristles glide through more easily and reduces static.
  2. Begin at the ends. Hold a small section and start brushing from the very tips, working up inch by inch. This prevents pushing tangles down and creating bigger knots.
  3. Use gentle pressure. Let the flexible bristles bend and flex around knots rather than yanking through them. The design does the detangling work, not your arm strength.
  4. Work in sections. Divide thick or curly hair into manageable sections before brushing. This ensures every strand gets properly detangled without missing spots.
