Tangle Teezer Blow Styling Smoothing Tool

In some form of another, a Tangle Teezer has become a staple on most of our dressing tables over the last few years. I myself have a faithful Compact Styler that I use every day wet or dry, and I've often wished it was bigger so I could use it to blow-dry my very long and thick hair in place of a round brush. Welllllll, turns out I wasn't the only one having that thought because Tangle Teezer added an actual blow-styling brush to their range! Well I'll be.

The Tangle Teezer Blow Styling Smoothing Tool will set you back £20 and promises to leave your hair voluminous, shiny and frizz free. The fixed base teeth are designed to quickly dry hair to a smooth finish without tugging, with no need to direct the dryer nozzle right onto the hair which can be damaging.

So does it work? Yessssssss, I do like using it to detangle wet hair as it glides through with minimal breakage, and it definitely dries my Rapunzel like locks much quicker than my normal thermal barrel, but I do have a teeny niggle, and it may just be me or my super powerful ghd dryer, but I find that the handle gets very hot mid blow. I don't know, it just gets to a point two thirds into my drying time where I think erk, hot hand alert! If you have one of these I'd love to hear if this is a shared problem or if it's just my technique, because I do enjoy using this brush but yeah, ouch.

It is available in half size (£18) for short to medium length hair, and the full size as shown here. I'd like to see a round brush in the range as I do have trouble blowing my fringe with a paddle shape like this, but overall this is a good addition to the beloved TT range and it's nice to see the science being applied to new products. 

In other news, it's just 4 weeks to the wedding (you may have spied my 'Future Mrs' headband from my Bristol mini-hen meet up with Tbuggles in the pics) and we're starting to wave goodbye to all out hard earned savings as the invoices start to roll in - HALP!
