Cameo Teasing Brush Review

This was a product I received (as most of you) in the last beauty box, and I won’t lie.. When I first saw it I was like ‘what is it’? After a bit of research I found out this tool is basically made for teasing your hair. Pretty much what is said on the packet.

It comes with a slender pink plastic handle which has a point at one end. This end is great for separating sections of hair, when doing a quiff or any other hairstyle that looks better with even lines! The other end is the brush which is made of thick bristles that are reasonably tightly packed in a straight line. This is the end used for teasing.

I haven’t really used this tool myself mostly because I am super lazy with my hair. I rarely wear it tied up and just leave it down to do its own thing. I have found the pointed end helpful for certain hair styles, and its great when doing my nieces hair too.

Personally I don’t have much use for the bristle end of this brush because like i said my hair is mostly worn down. Also my hair is super thick already so it doesn’t need much teasing or anything like that for volume.

Overall, this is not a tool I need in my life, but it would benefit those of you who give your hair the TLC it deserves as well as those who want to add volume to your hair.

I have to admit when I opened my BRBB I had no idea why this brush was shaped the way it is, I did know however that I liked the spike and thought that I needed one (not completely sure why at the time).

So I used the brush to smooth my hair after I put it up in a pony tail... win!! no fly-aways... great brush... can I review it yet... uh.. no! why?! because it's not what it's used for mainly... ok, so it's teases ahhh right, ok... I don't tease my hair so that's why I had zero clue. Now I had to ask myself... do I want to tease my hair? short answer is No! but I did it anyway... because it wouldn't be fair to review it without proper use right?! Alright, so I teased... um... lets just say it works... kind of, my hair is very fine and even with texture powder in it doesn't stay where it should, and slid back to normal quite quickly.

The one saving grace for this brush is sectioning for colouring. It works well and I can smooth any strays in easily. So I found a home for it with my Fudge colours kit.

It's not the sort of brush everybody needs but it has it's uses. I am sure I will find more ways to utilize it in the future.

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.

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 have owned at least 5 different types of teasing brushes and this one would be the one I like the most.

I was sent one of these in one of the Beauty review beauty boxes, I really like the colour, its bright, its bold and you can find it nearly anywhere.

The end has a pointy edge, its great for parting your hair or putting it into precise sections.

I have very fine and thin hair so I need as much volume as I can get. I like to give the top of my hair volume so section a long chunk of hair and using the brush I slide it down my hair from mid length down to the roots, when Im happy with the result I spray it with hair spray and gently smooth the top. It takes me half the time to tease my hair compared to a regular comb.

It also makes a great "dreading" brush, I recently made some synthetic dreads and I used this to back comb. It made my work so much easier, I was nearly finished making my dreads when I couldn't find my teasing brush and I had to finish the rest with my regular brush (My son had hid it somewhere), thats when I realized how handy and less time consuming this brush is.

I am very happy with this brush, after having this brush I purchased the bigger version of this, the brush is the same but twice as wide, its fantastic!

I highly recommend this brush!

The Cameo brand comes out with some great handy little hair-helpers and this brush is definitely one of them.

I mostly use this brush in conjunction with dry shampoo when my hair is looking limp, on a account that it's been a few days since the last wash. I tend to use it only on my roots as with dry shampoo, just to acheive a bit of volume in the roots.

This brush is exceptionally more effective and efficient for acheiving volume with teasing, than any other regularish type hair brush.

The design is practical, very compact and girly, with a pointed end which can come in handy for parting.

If you have issues with limp/flat looking hair, definitely get one of these, well worth $6.

I got this in the BRBB like most of the lovelies on here. I never really needed it because I have quite short hair with shaved sides. I love the Cameo brand itself for brushes and hair ties so knew this would be a great product too.

I love the hot pink colour it is which excites my girly side to no end. It is a thin line of soft-ish bristles which combs through the thickest hair with ease. It has a bad habit of making my thick hair far to frizzy but I persevered with it nonetheless.

I was determined to find a use for it and finally I have. I use it to smooth my mohawk in to a neat and slick style. I use styling product and a straightener usually but with this brush I do away with the straightener every time.

It makes all the little flyaways stay in place and it makes my usually dry hair feel smooth and healthier. I think the secret lies in the bristles and the alignment. I would never have thought of using a teasing brush for smoothing duties, but there you go.

Recently I decided to go for a 1950s inspired coif. I grab the front of my hawk and brush from the top of the lengths down to the roots creating a knotted birds nest. This may all sound silly to do to your hair but when you smooth it out and get the coif looking sleek and defined it looks perfecto. It gives me a whole new look without the visit to the expensive salon in a mere five minutes. If you want to add volume without all the chemicals and potions, this brush is for you!

Like a lot of people I received this in my BRBB. I knew what it was straight away, but I don't really have much use for it in my collection.

This has an uber bright pink with small sparkles plastic handle. The bristles are black and tightly packed. Didn't have any problems with them falling out or anything. I do really like that the end is pointed so it makes it easier to make a part in your hair.

The tightly packed bristles make it easy to back comb your hair and have a really nice effect. Also great for smoothing down some hairs if you are doing a sleek look. Great that this has multiple uses.

Overall though I mainly just wear my hair down and straightened most days. So for me I don't really have an everyday (or even often) use for this so it won't be staying in my collection long term.
