As someone with thick, long and coarse hair, I know that not all hair brushes are created equal. I’ve bought plenty of hair brushes in my lifetime and some just can’t handle detangling my tightly coiled 4C locks. So, I get pretty excited when I hear about a brush that can help us girls with thick and curly hair.

And the word on Amazon is that the Denman Classic Styling Brush 7 is worth considering for curly-haired peeps. In fact, it has over 9,000 customer ratings and nearly 2,500 five-star reviews.

Although it might look like an ordinary hair brush, the Denman Classic Styling Brush stands out because of its versatility. For example, you can use it to gently detangle, style, smooth and straighten hair. And if you’re someone who’s a little tender-headed, it also reduces frizz and the “harshness to the scalp” when styling and grooming, according to the product description.

Additionally, it has seven rows of nylon pins that help better define wet curls and allow for softer, increased movement.

Not to mention, it comes from a company with a long history for crafting some of the hair industry’s most notable styling tools. Since the 1950s, hairstylists have used Denman products to help create iconic looks, such as fashion designer Mary Quant’s asymmetric bob. Denman also works with hair professionals from around the world to develop its wide range of products.

While the Denman Classic Styling Brush 7 can be used for all hair types, it consistently stands out among reviewers with curlier hairstyles.

“This denman brush is sturdy and glides easily through my thick kinky curly hair when it is wet or dry without pain,” one buyer wrote. “It does not pull or get tangled in my hair when I am brushing. This is a great brush for natural or transitioning hair.”

Another Amazon shopper mentioned it’s their “go-to brush” in their haircare routine.

“I have 4b/c natural hair and this works for detangling on wash day, styling and everything else. Love it with my protective styles too.”

However, many buyers didn’t like that the brush comes apart easily and that it only appears to work well when your hair is wet.
