Op here. Ok so I tried the Goody ouchless as well and did a tangle-by-tangle comparison. The wet brush was slightly better. Not enough difference that I'd return the goody (I will keep it as a spare in my car) but enough of a difference that I'd buy the wet brush over the goody.

Apparently detangling brushes are a niche product and there are several competing ones out there. I cannot believe I just found out about this at almost 40 years of age. I'm getting them for my step daughters as well. I love when things work.

Yes! The Wet Brush was advised by my hairdresser for DD and me. We love it. Super popular in our house.

Has anyone used both this brush and the Aveda paddle brush? I currently use the Aveda brush and interested in hearing a comparison.

I have 3 girls -- all with different types of hair. This brush works great for each of them. Love it.

I just got that for my 4 year old recently. It works really well on her god-awful tangles. Haven't tried it myself.

Hi thanks for the snark! What's conditioner? Lol of course I use conditioner and would also try to comb/brush with conditioner in my hair but still had a lot of uncomfortable snarls and shedding.

How does this work for thick, curly hair?

Bought it! Thanks.

Op have you ever tried conditioner?

I thought you weren't supposed to brush wet hair.

I just got one too - perfect for my fine, highlighted, damaged hair that is basically like cotton candy when wet. Also perfect for DD's coarse, curly, plentiful toddler hair.

I love the Wet Brush too, OP. It's a game changer for tangly hair!

Here you go - I posted an Amazon link bc there are over 1000 reviews (only a couple reviews on Target.com). It comes in a couple of different sizes and shapes.

Can we have a link please?

Just passing this along to anyone who might be in the same boat. I bought the Wet Brush from Target the other day. It advertises itself as a pain free detangling hairbrush.

I am a FTM, and I went on a "Target Vacation" to buy a hairbrush bc I actually broke mine brushing my hair. My super-fine hair has been shedding post-partum, and tangling horribly as a result. It's been a vicious cycle where I actually dread showering and then brushing my hair bc it is so tangled and I lose hundreds of strands when I brush it, and I feel like I am tearing my hair out of my head. It got so bad that I stopped showering for a day or two at a time, then I felt really gross and bad about myself, and baby and I weren't even leaving the house.

Anyway, I saw this Wet Brush at Target, and I was so excited to try it, that I tried it in the parking lot - and it was awesome - it combed right through my knotted up hair - no pain. Now I'm back in the game! I don't dread the daily shower and comb through anymore.

So, that's how a $10 brush changed my life. I have really thin hair, so I cannot comment on how it will handle thick hair. I have a baby boy, but if I had daughters with long, tangled hair, I would absolutely get this. I also grabbed the Goody ouch-free brush but haven't tried it yet.

Happy brushing, hope this helps someone!
