This is the ONLY brush my THICK HAIRED 10 year old daughter will use. It detanges and adds shine! She uses it wet and dry with no issues. I finally got one for myself and I like to use it once a day, but if I use it too often I find it can make my hair a tad oily feeling.

Smelling GOOD
Champagne Toast is my current favorite B&BW scent. Light and sweet smell.
