Tangle Tamer $12.99 Tester Grade: A
It's called the Tangle Tamer and a Fort Plain mom called us as soon as she saw us ask for volunteers on our web site. Because, she told us, this product could change her life:
Sound of brushing hair Lori Quackenbush calls it her dreaded daily routine. Lori Quackenbush/Fort Plain: "It's just hard to brush...it's always knotted." And 8-year-old Amber doesn't exactly enjoy it either.... Lori Quackenbush: "Do you like Mommy having to brush it all the time?" (Amber shakes her head no) ...but if her mom doesn't smooth out her hair a few times a day it's: Lori Quackenbush: "Just messy...very tangled." To top it off...all this brushing makes Amber lose a lotta hair. So we gave them this: Lori Quackenbush: "I've never seen this..." For 13 bucks the Tangle Tamer promises to make detangling faster and easier than ever. No tears. No tangles. No tantrums. Lori Quackenbush: "Look at how nice her hair looks." Amber wanted to look like that girl on the box so they got going... Sound of Tangle Tamer Lori Quackenbush: "Wow." Lori couldn't believe how easy it was... Lori Quackenbush: "It just slides right through...I'd much rather have her laughing than saying ow, ow." And she couldn't believe her eyes. Lori Quackenbush: "This side looks a lot thinner...and less bushier than this side does." Lori even tried it on wet hair... Lori Quackenbush: "And it's going right through it." It didn't fare so well on knots, though. Lori Quackenbush: "You might have to break it down into smaller parts when you come to knots." But...all in all...Lori said Amber's hair looked better than ever before — and she didn't lose clumps of hair in the process! Lori Quackenbush: "I don't have to worry about her going bald before she's twenty...ha ha." Sound of Tangle Tamer Now, Lori says this will be their daily routine... Lori Quackenbush: "I love this!" ...and she got no complaints from her daughter. Lori Quackenbush: "Would you like me to brush your hair with this....or this?....ha ha ha." Lori wants any parent who deals with tangled hair...to buy this product. So...it's no surprise she gave it an A. *We bought our Tangle Tamer at Target.
