This flexible palm-size brush from Manta molds to the shape of your hand and scalp, creating less tension, while its bendy, forgiving bristles minimize snags. Manta’s founder, Tim Binnington, a British hairdresser, created it for his wife when she was growing her hair back after an illness and worried brushing was causing breakage. Use it to detangle in the shower, comb damp hair, or brush out when dry. And guys love it, too—it feels truly wonderful on the scalp.

• ABS, resin and rubber body with TPEE bristles
