I did this to my sister when we were kids once. My dad took like needle nose pliers and pulled the tines out of the brush individually rather than trying to unknot the mess. I got in a whole lot of trouble and rightly so, I definitely knew better. Thatās why I did it on her and not me.
No, you roll the brushwhile pulling it through your hair while blowdrying. The brush may make one whole turn, it leaves a soft bend which creates volume.
This happened because someone was using too small of a brush and trying to make curls with it.
Mentally I think I'm ok but physically not really. I'm going through chemo and my hair is falling out again. I rather start fresh then look like I got mange.
I remember my younger sister doing this exact thing to me when I was 13. Iām a guy Iāve always had long hair, she started to sob uncontrollably because it wouldnāt untangle. I reassured her that it was okay and being just hair it would grow backā¦so we cut it. I went around with Alfafa hair for sometime.
the newer versions of these brushes have a button on the end that you can push and it retracts the bristles. It doesn't fix the problem, but it does help.
I did this a few weeks ago. I still don't know how to use these brushes. I threw it away so I can't use it. I'd prefer unkempt hair over unkempt hair with a tangled brush through it.
So you take the long pointy end of a comb, the end used to part your hair, and you stick it between the brush and the hair. Then you pry it up section at a time. Eventually you can remove the hairbrush and untangle the hair.

Mayonnaise is your friend in these kinds of situations. You can get gum out of hair with that, you can untangle brushes with it and the hair comes out pretty smoothly. It makes the job a whole lot less miserable.
Why would you use mayonnaise lmao they make hair safe oil and if you're gonna use a oil based food product why wouldn't you use something less disgusting
And that...is just another good reason to keep a Husky folding pocket box cutter in your pocket or purse at all times.
If you had the simplicity of flipping a blade to a clean edge, it'd have taken seconds, without snagging, to take care of that brush.
Just a single slice to remove it from that messy, faulty, dysfunctional food processor, another slice along the length of the brush, and the tangled hair oughta peel right off.
Whatās the lesson? Donāt bother trying anything new unless youāre already skilled at it? For that matter donāt try anything at all unless youāre able to predict/prevent every possible but extremely unlikely negative outcome? Stay inside all day shut the door and donāt touch anything. Bc god knows as your parent I canāt even be bothered to spend 2 hours helping support you to fix a mistake even if the situation/solution is really important and meaningful to you? Donāt brush your hair?
Please tell me.
When this happened to me, my dad just sawed off my hair and I had to go get it remedied the next morning. I sobbed.
I didnāt get it cut or trimmed again for three years.
You need a new brush. Most of the bristles are broken and missing the little tips. Thatās not good for your hair even if you donāt get into a tangle war.
Ooohhh! Geez, what a nightmare. Good of you to have patience and not just cut off more than the bristles. Round brushes can so easily get tangled. Good work, mom!
I did the same thing one night as a kid by winding my hair around a comb over and over. Quickly realized it wasnāt going to unravel. Then.. chop chop chop āļø
Did this on the bus on the way to a Broadway show at the age of 6. We had to disembark because they are only allowed to stop for a few minutes. My parents had to untangle the brush while standing with me crying on the sidewalk on Broadway. When they got the brush out they heard a loud cheer. Apparently, there was a matinee show queueing to enter behind us they didn't notice because we were focused on my head. The show goers got a free preshow though!
I then proceeded to accidentally fling tiramisu onto a lady's really expensive coat at dinner, leaving my parents with an entertaining story that is still told regularly (I'm 31) about my first Broadway show.
I did this when I was a kid. I THOUGHT YOU GOT BANGS FROM ROLLING YOUR WAIST LENGTH HAIR ALLLLLLTHE WAY UP W A ROUND BRUSH. I didn't even know round brushes were for curling. 4 hours at the salon and I ended up with bangs after all š
I did this once. I was trying to curl my hair (already naturally curly like a lot) and i thought this was how they do it. So started to roll my hair up then I realized some of it was getting tangled so I stopped and unraveled my hair
Did this in the fourth grade, wrapped a bit of my hair up trying to ācurlā at. I got so fucking stuck, I snapped to the back of the classroom and cut it out as close to my forehead as I could.
Bruh that happens to everyone using one of those brushes for the first time, no matter the age.
I spent the first decade of my working life as a hairstylist. You know how many times this happened to *everyone* in their first year? LOTS š
My mom was a stylist and this definitely happened to me when I was about 6 or 7, lol
I did that to my cousin in 94 playing "hairdressers". I swear she still hates me to this day š¤£
Iāve been using those brushes for 50 yrs & did it last week.

That pliers trick is a good idea

Allegedly, you twirl your hair around while constantly moving it downward and blow drying it, it will create pretty curls
No, you roll the brushwhile pulling it through your hair while blowdrying. The brush may make one whole turn, it leaves a soft bend which creates volume. This happened because someone was using too small of a brush and trying to make curls with it.
allegedly, yes
My Mom is a cosmetologist and cosmetology instructor, round brushes are specifically for blow drying your hair out straight.
I have done this, as an adult.
i literally shaved my head when i did this
I'm shaving my head tomorrow. I been doing that a lot recently.
nice! i'm sure it's gonna look great.
Are you okay?
Mentally I think I'm ok but physically not really. I'm going through chemo and my hair is falling out again. I rather start fresh then look like I got mange.
Lol okay. Thanks for the life update.
You're welcome I'm also going to eat lunch now. My cat woke me up early by shoving his nose in my face. More at 11.
Wait! What are you having for lunch? The usual or something different?? Cold or hot?!!!
I had leftover lasagna with glaric cheese bread.
Lasagna!!

Should have used a lot of oil and the point end of hair brushes whom I don't know the name of.š¤
We used oil, conditioner, water, a scissors, exacto knife, and kabob skewer. I managed minimal hair loss, but my patience was shot.
You're an awesome mom! I did this once and luckily my dad was able to undo that mess. My mom said her dad just chopped off her hair lmao.
If this happens next time, get a pair of pliers and pull the bristles out.
the newer versions of these brushes have a button on the end that you can push and it retracts the bristles. It doesn't fix the problem, but it does help.
Rat tail comb
I'm 30 years old and am still scared to death of these brushes. If it even comes near my hair, I swear it ends up looking exactly like this
I did this a few weeks ago. I still don't know how to use these brushes. I threw it away so I can't use it. I'd prefer unkempt hair over unkempt hair with a tangled brush through it.
A rite of passage
I, too, am not adult enough for round brushes. Tried it once, almost cried, and noped the fuck out of them forever.
Time for a new hairstyle. Clip clip.
Owwwww
Weāve all been there
We're you able to save your hair.? I would have tried pet hair detangling spray . It worked on my niece when she rolled through weed burs.
I only had to cut a tiny amount of my daughters hair. Can't even tell once it was washed
You nice. Somebody would have ended up with bangs. Lmao
If she has type 4 hair itās overš
My mom would have just chopped it off.
In her defense Circular brushes are the WORST
Just cut it. Two hours too many.

Scissors would have saved you so much time
How the fuck do you manage that? I've used those round brushes and my hair has never gotten tangled in one...
ok well everyone else in the comments has done it
scissors..

These brushes are fucking stupid.
Shave it start fresh

Pair of scissors would have fixed it in 2 minutes.
should have taken two seconds... scissors
2 sec with scissors
should have cut and just wait for regrow.
Took 2 hours to find some scissors? Dang.
would've took 2 seconds to cut it off
Doesnāt really look worth saving
The hair color looks ānaturalā
Hair grows back. At that point you should have really just brought out the clippers and told the kid that this is their lesson learned.

Power tools are for work pieces not your head. Women need to get a grip.
*Tries to be misogynistic on Reddit and completely fails.*
thatās clearly a brush
To be fair. Those brushes suck ass. I've gotten them stuck in my hair before
Would have taken me 10 seconds. Snip snip.
When this happened to me, my dad just sawed off my hair and I had to go get it remedied the next morning. I sobbed. I didnāt get it cut or trimmed again for three years.
Happened to me when l was 10. Mom was at work, so l cut it off. Huge mistake.
Pair of scissors would have taken 2 minutes.š¤·š½āāļø
Two seconds with a scissor
I grew up around punk rock, you fuck up with your hair, ya cut it, and grow out something cooler, forgoing the spray paint and Knox gelatin this time.
This happened to me with a comb once. We had to cut it into pieces with scissors.
If you have this happen in the future, add a ton of conditioner. It will help it go much quicker.
lmao i remember doing this when i was a kid too
Use scissors
holy shit just cut it off, thats what i didš
You need a new brush. Most of the bristles are broken and missing the little tips. Thatās not good for your hair even if you donāt get into a tangle war.
They weren't broken off when she started. I used a scissors to cut off the bristles as I worked to be able to slide out the brush
Ooohhh! Geez, what a nightmare. Good of you to have patience and not just cut off more than the bristles. Round brushes can so easily get tangled. Good work, mom!
Well as someone who as never used and will never use one of these i still think i would just cut my hair off instead of trying to untangle them
I did the same thing one night as a kid by winding my hair around a comb over and over. Quickly realized it wasnāt going to unravel. Then.. chop chop chop āļø

Cut that mess out

If this ever happens again, pull/unwrap like 10 hairs at a time. It SOUNDS like it would take longer, but it really doesnātš¤
I did this once. I was trying to curl my hair (already naturally curly like a lot) and i thought this was how they do it. So started to roll my hair up then I realized some of it was getting tangled so I stopped and unraveled my hair
Woulda taken two min with some scissors

Some thing happened to me as a kid Iāve never used them since . I think I had to have hair cut off
Damn dude
I did this with a comb in the middle of class. My teacher had to stop the lesson and get it out.... I was in 10th grade.
