Cameo Teasing Brush Review

I didn't really understand how I would use this when it appeared in a BRBB and I was right - it's just not for me.

A hard pink plastic brush with short black close set bristles, this just causes my super fine hair to go frizzy. I may well be using it incorrectly, as it appears to be (as the title says) a TEASING brush....but as I don't usually have frizzy hair, hate the feel of teased hair, and and adore my usual hairbrush, I'm not really inclined to keep trying - but everything's worth at least one go :)

I will be giving mine away... i don't think it's a fault with the brush itself, simply a mismatch between my hair, my look and the brush. No hard feelings, cameo :)

I got this in a BRBB and put it to the side. I fight to keep knots out of my hair than put them in, so not my ideal product but in the interest of testing it I did.

Once removed from its cardboard backing the bright pink brush has a long pointy separator at one end and a 3 row set of bristles to tease with. Taking a length of hair I moved the brush up my hair to tease. The resulting was something that I was please with. The teasing was gentle with the brush and gave a nice little lift for the hair that I put over the bump. Once I had had enough I use the brush to slowly take out the teased hair. I did find a use for it however by spraying the bristles with hairspray and tidying the straggling short hairs when doing high ponytails or other styles where my hair is well off my face. Not quite what the manufacturer had planned but works for me. I also found out that if I don't wash my hair and let all the natural oils go through, it works like a normal hair brush but smaller. I might try that with an oil hair mask at some point.

Not something I would repurchase even as a gift but I would look at other cameo items based on this one.

A bright pink brush a skinny handle, very hard black bristles. This is a narrow teasing brush. Now if you don’t tease your hair don’t try and use it for anything else. For teasing this does do a really good job off pushing the hair up. I like getting a bit of height in my ponytail or my bun needs some volume, love a messy bun. So I divide my hair up and starting at the back of my head hold some hair and halfway up my hair closer to my scalp I drag this brush pushing hair up the hair shaft I’m holding. This brush teases nicely get good volume in what’s to say does the job. And when I’m sticking my hair up with it teased and tied the handle comes in really well for sticking loose hair in and poking my bun around to loosen up tight bits. It’s a fantastic wee tool it’s value for money.

When I spotted this in the March BRBB I was excited and couldn't wait to try it out. Now I have thick wavy hair - how much more volume do I need? I've always wanted to try the half up pony or loose bun with a bit of volume so now was my chance.

I was a tad too keen and went straight into teasing - how hard could it be? Well if you don't know what you're doing then it'll look like a mess which is exactly how mine looked. Needless to say I put the teasing brush down and checked out a tutorial or 5!

It's a lightweight pink brush with a groove in the middle of the handle which is great for grip and a pointy tip for sectioning your hair. I don't have anything to compare this brush to but I do like it. The bristles are clustered very close to each other so it does a good job of smoothing out the hair.

Initially I created more knots than actual volume but eventually I got the hang of starting high and using small strokes until I reached my roots. I wouldn't do too much because I'm not trying to bring back the beehive at my age but it's a nice change from usual hair styles - loose curls, sleek straight, braid, bun. I'm still not the best at teasing my hair but I'm quite happy to have this for those days or nights.

I was interested to get this brush in the March BRBB. I looked it it and thought, hmmn, that looks looks a pretty ordinary brush.

It's a cool dark pink, and has 3 rows of hard black bristles.

I haven't tried it for teasing because my hair is fine and quite fragile and breaks off easily under pressure, but after washing, drying, and brushing my hair, I run this brush over and it smooths flyaways and frizz, very very well.

This is all I use it for, but I'm very happy with it for that purpose and as it is advertised as being $6, it is a great brush for the price and the purpose.

I would recommend it to others to try - another weapon in the flyaway hair arsenal!
