What do celebs Victoria Beckham, Emma Watson, Salma Hayek, Rita Ora and Cara Delevingne have in common? They all have fabulous hair and have sung the praises of Tangle Teezer hair brushes. After I test-drove the Original Tangle Teezer Hair Brush ($12.49), I understood why it’s earned so many accolades: It transforms knotty locks into silky strands without the ouch factor. Bonus: It’s much easier to clean than a standard brush since I can pull out any stray hairs in one clump. Now I can’t go anywhere without it! 

Tangle Teezer brushes are the only ones made with memory flex technology, so teeth move around the hair (instead of the other way around), ensuring that there’s no yanking involved. My personal favorite is the original brush, which was designed for daily hair care instead of blow-drying or styling. However, you can also choose from the Compact Styler, Aqua Splash (specially designed for wet hair), The Blow-styling Hairbrush, Magic Flowerpot (for kids) and Salon Elite.
