I have frizzy hair that curls at the tips, and even this brush is as much in my hair when I disentangling previously doing the finger to identify nodes before moving the brush. It is very effective also for the hair before a disciplined kind of styling (permamante curlers, Twist, Bantu, braid). Having thick hair, I pulled rank and 3 suits me. No regrets, and packaging was not damaged in the package. I recommend it!
