Mita GEMTIPS Detangling Brush Review

Just for context, my hair is very thick, curly and long, and I can never easily get a comb or brush through it, wet or dry. I tried the Mita brush on my dry hair, and while it was easier than a normal comb or brush would be, it still required tugging and holding sections to work it through to the ends, so it still felt like I was pulling and damaging my hair. In the shower, I tried it on my wet hair when it was full of conditioner, and here it was definitely a lot easier than with a comb, and less painful than what I usually do (tugging my fingers through my hair to get the knots out and distribute the conditioner). I still needed to work on the lower half a bit though, and pulling with a brush felt like it was causing more breakages than when I use my fingers to ease the tangles out. Once my hair was untangled, the brush did slip through it beautifully and really distributed the conditioner well. Overall for me, the brush is certainly smoother and better than any others I've tried, but it's not a life-changer. However, the fact that I could actually get it through my wet hair relatively painlessly is pretty amazing. If your hair is less thick and curly than mine, I imagine this brush would be brilliant. The flexing brush head is really nice, sort of shaping itself to your head as you brush, giving your scalp a bit of a stimulating massage. My husband (short, medium-thick hair) decided to try it, and he really liked the massage thing and the smooth, non-scratchy bristles. So it looks like it's going to be his from now on (!) - although I might borrow it from time to time when I want to really get my conditioner nicely distributed.
