What The Teeze??!!

OK. I know that there are many of you who are reading this that have heard about the Tangle Teezer. I heard about it I guess a month after it came out and I was curious so I started to watch the reviews of it on YouTube, (my go-to source for new products and such). I watched tons of vids about it and EVERYONE seemed to just love the darn thing. So I figured I had to get one. Right before ordering, (because Sally's never seemed to have any in stock), I ran across one person who had a bad review of the tool. The person is the awesome blogger of CurlyNikki. She said that in the beginning she loved her Tangle Teezer then after frequent usage, realized that her ends were spit! I figured, well, Nikki's hair and my hair are two ENTIRELY different textures and she was the only person I saw that had a negative review about it, so I figured, well, just go to amazon and order it. I was soooo excited when I got my Tangle Teezer in the mail and here is the one I ordered.

I was so happy because it was wash day when it came in and on day one I loved the brush so much that I did not even notice the difference in shedding between my regular detangling tools and this brush. So I used it like two more times, and I finally noticed that in the brush there were a lot of short, broken hairs!! I was like OMGeez! How much of my hair has been broken? So I took notice of the "shed", (broken), hairs that had accumulated and took a mental picture of the amount, (and it was huge). So today was wash day again and I used my regular tools, which consist of my handy-dandy detangling comb

and my trustee Denman brush, (which I only use when needed).

Once I was done with my hair I was astonished at the amount of difference in "shed" hair! It was so much less using both of these tools as opposed to using just the Tangle Teezer!! I am very disappointed because the Tangle Teezer cut down my detangling time immensely and to realize the strain that I had put on my hair, it wasn't  worth it. I have assessed the ends of my hair and they appear to be fine, but my hair is so curly that looks tend to be deceiving. So I twisted my hair to get a better look at the ends of my hair and it appears that all is well.

So after the detrimental evidence from the Tangle Teezer, I have to say, (sadly), that I agree with CurlyNikki. I guess in this case, hair texture has nothing to do with the matter and my Tangle Teezer will just have to be for decoration (I guess I have to mourn it for a while before actually getting rid of it).

Have any of you noticed a difference in "shed" hairs with the Tangle Teezer, good or bad?
