Who it's for
The Denman D83 Paddle Brush is for anyone with medium-to-long hair who wants a high-quality, salon-grade smoothing-and-detangling brush. Particularly well-suited to those who blow-dry the hair smooth, those who tie hair back into ponytails and updos, and anyone whose hair tangles easily. The gentle nylon pins also make it well-tolerated by those with sensitive scalps. A natural pick for the home, the gym bag, and travel.
How to use
- Start with detangling spray on wet or dry hair to help the brush glide.
- Start at the ends of the hair, working in small sections — detangle the ends first, then work upwards.
- For blow-drying: hold sections of damp hair taut with the brush and direct the dryer down the hair shaft.
- For daily smoothing on dry hair: brush from roots to ends in long, sweeping strokes.
- Avoid brushing wet hair too aggressively — wet hair is more fragile.
Care
- Remove trapped hair regularly with a comb or by hand.
- Wash occasionally with mild shampoo and warm water — dry pins-down on a towel.
- Avoid storing on damp surfaces.
