Which inventor pitched the Tangle Teezer hairbrush on BBC's Dragon's Den?

Shaun Pulfrey pitched the Tangle Teezer hairbrush on BBC's Dragon's Den.

Pulfrey was a professional hair colourist and developed the brush after observing how conventional brushes could pull and damage tangled hair. He believed a flexible, specially shaped arrangement of teeth could detangle hair more gently. The product was originally called the HairBean before being developed under the Tangle Teezer name.

Pulfrey appeared on the programme in 2007 but did not secure an investment deal. The business later grew substantially through online sales, salons and international distribution. Tangle Teezer products are now sold in many countries and are available in several designs for different hair types.

The key distinction is between the inventor and the product: Shaun Pulfrey is the entrepreneur, while Tangle Teezer is the brush brand. The pitch is frequently cited as an example of a business succeeding after leaving the Den without investment.
