The Knot Genie and Teeny Genie Detangling Brushes were created for every parent that's endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration- gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) - you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing. As well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. I have VERY thin hair and it doesn't really get knotted but it does however fall out if i use a very aggressive brush. Now for those of you with thin hair you know, you we can't afford to lose any hair that we don't have to! So the Knot Genie is perfect for us! It glides flawlessly throughout my hair without causing breakage and extra hair falling out. This is a new must have in my getting ready routine!
