I actually always used a wide tooth comb and very rarely used my Denman. Lately I've been using it a lot and find it quite addictive. Nothing defines my curls like that brush does. I see a lot more hair in the brush then I did with the wide tooth comb but I'm trying to make myself feel better by saying that's normal shedding right

I know some swear by their Denman and then others say no-no because it will cause unnecessary breakage. Is the jury really still out on this or should I put the brush down and walk away ?
