But what really makes the TT? Also, compared to other brushes.
Besides the TT I have a hand cut really wide toothed comb, a coarse brush with bristles and ground wood a natural hairbrush boar bristles. And hair, ranging up to about the bra clasp with a slight natural wave. Especially in winter, the hair at the nape knot strong when they rub against jacket collar and turtlenecks.
What I was looking for was thus a brush that solves the node gentler than comb and wooden brush with rigid tines so that less be rooted there. At the same time but one that it is more reliable solves than the soft boar bristle.
Without tweet? No. Can not be
-------------------------------------------------- --------
In a way, the TT does that also mean that it would go without painful tangles without careful Nachbürsten or support by unraveling with your fingers, but is only in advertising that.
Actually, that's logical. The physics enforces it unfortunately like that. Yes, unfortunately the annoying physics also determines what happens when hair brushes: When I come to the brush on a knotted point in her hair, then I practice by the momentum of my hand a force on the node. This force acts on all 3 components involved: the node itself, the bristles of my brush and the hair roots involved. And nothing, not brushes the world can prevent this force acts on all 3 components. It is - with no matter what brush - always give the weakest of the 3 components: If the node is not particularly tight, then dissolves the knot. This is the event on which it is hoped - and would make more likely with smooth, good sliding bristles. That's also not bad succeeded. Nevertheless, I have always been the force acting on the bristles and hair roots. The roots have a certain train endure so still. And that's the tweet. That may be a little less if the brush slips well, it can not disappear at all. Without train you can not solve any node.
And when at fixed nodes give to the bristles. And the node remains. At least the train until the bristles are so feel once are secure knots in the hair bend. Compulsory.
How it looks and how it feels?
-------------------------------------------------- -
First, be honest: That thing looks cheap. Plastic halt. I have him in Barbie-pink, because the other colors were just out of print. Stylish is different. But I do not care.
Similarly cheap sounds brushing: It's the same sound as with a cheap plastic brush from the garage trade the drugstore. Something too profane to the devotional brushing the mane to make a solemn moment. Mag disturb some women, I do not really care.
The bristles have no burrs, are made of flexible silicone. As low as the whole thing even looks, the brush portion looks well made, because cast in one piece.
The TT compared to my other brush and the comb
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Compared to my comb and my wooden brush the TT twinge much less and I tear my hair so less out. Anyway, if I work slowly. If I'm in a hurry .... well, you should have long hair, also not. Here helps clear that the bristles are flexible. Especially rigid nodes do not dissolve. I You are then carefully with your fingers. It also helps not equal to brush the entire length, but only the tops, then the lower half, then everything.
Compared to boar bristle brush he can solve more nodes than the very soft boar bristle. For the hair cleansing effect of natural bristle falls away. So he can not deploy the same conditioning effect on the hair, but can be cleaned more easily and keep them clean.
My Conclusion
-------------
Certainly something much hype, nevertheless a useful brush. Who still operating at only comb or a brush with stiff bristles (wood, hard plastic or wire), will perceive a significant improvement in the tweet and less hair off or tear. At the nursing effect of boar bristles he comes not ran, such so can not replace, but rather more than a comb complement to disentangle. That's how I use it now. And so far am also satisfied.
