Who invented the Tangle Teezer hairbrush featured on Britain's Dragon's Den?

Shaun Pulfrey invented the Tangle Teezer hairbrush featured on Britain's Dragon's Den.

Pulfrey was a British hairdresser who developed the product after identifying a problem with conventional brushes. The Tangle Teezer uses flexible teeth arranged to move through hair and loosen tangles, making the design particularly associated with gentler detangling.

He pitched the invention on Dragon's Den, where Deborah Meaden invested in the business. The programme helped expose the product to a large audience, but the invention itself came from Pulfrey's experience and product development work.

Tangle Teezer is sometimes confused with unrelated salon brands or with ordinary wide-toothed combs. Its name refers to the brand and product line, while Shaun Pulfrey is the inventor and founder most specifically linked with its creation.
