Great for curly hair that tends to get tangly [SEP] The hair stylist recommended this for my daughter who has curly hair that gets very tangled overnight. Previously, we had use the regular Wet Brush, which is better than most other brushes for curly hair. The design of this brush gives it extra "flex" so when you hit a snag the brush flexes and it lessens the tug on her scalp. Still not perfect, but much fewer tears than with other brushes.
