PATTERN Beauty by Tracee Ellis Ross Mini Shower Brush, Best for Curlies, Coilies and Tight-Textured Hair, 3a-4c

I'm black and Asian, and when I let my hair dry naturally I end up with a tangled, frizzy half-fro. Think Dora the explorer, but with more texture. I put this brush in a small travel bag so that whenever I'm out of town (which is often) I can still spray my hair with water and brush it back into a twisty bun. I use a wide comb first, then this, then satin scrunchies and bonnet. The brush detangles my hair easily and makes it look smooth and shiny, with uniform, sculpted waves.This brush is compact while still being easy to grip while dragging through stubborn coils. It's easy to clean - I just give my hair a few brushes every other time I shampoo - not to mention it feels great on my scalp. I love it. At this point I cannot travel without it.I mean, I can, but not without rocking the Dora.

It hasn’t broke or popped off yet going through my thick 4C hair. I like this brush, it’s strong and durable. I find it works better on my hair when I have the showerhead water angled on the section I’m working with along with conditioner. My daughter on the other hand just needs wet hair and conditioner but her strands are finer. Detangling her hair is a breeze.Side note- I mainly detangle holding the brush vertically.

Pattern Brush is amazing. It's quality, durability, hand control, size, ease of cleaning and the way it make my CURLS POP, WOW!! Use daily. Need a new one!

This works well for fine or thin hair with loose curl patterns. Does not work on my daughters thick tight curls! Works very well for me ! Defines and smooths.

Detangles well. Does not pull hair. Firm bristles give a nice massage to stimulate scalp. Well made. I even purchased a mini to travel with.

The bristles are quite hard, but that's good for gently brushing the scalp. The brush is heavy for hairbrushes, that is. But one could tell by holding it that it is a good, high-quality hairbrush that will last a long time.

When I first got the brush it felt wonderful to finally have something that can truly detangle my 4a hair. I works very smoothly but the only downside is longevity of this product. I started to notice that the pieces of the bristles are flaking off, which has me questioning whether it the quality of the brush itself, the products I use, or the grain of my hair (which is fine to medium with a medium density and thickness). Since the pieces of the bristles are coming off and most likely staying in my hair I cannot see myself having to repurchase this product twice in one year. I purchased this detangling brush this summer most likely in June or July and it seems as though I’ll have to get a completely different brush for another brand even though I loved this brush.

The media could not be loaded. First time using a detangling brush and I was first skeptical because I have 4c hair….BUT she did the job. I’m obsessed with this brush. It’s lightweight but effective. So easy to clean. 10 out of 10 recommend.
