Shaun Pulfrey invented the Tangle Teezer hairbrush that appeared on the British show Dragon's Den.
Pulfrey is a British inventor and hairdresser whose product uses flexible teeth designed to remove tangles while reducing pulling on the hair. He developed the concept after working with hair and identifying a need for a gentler way to detangle it.
The product appeared on Dragon's Den before becoming an internationally recognised hairbrush brand. Its unusual shape and practical demonstration made the pitch easy to understand: the brush was intended to separate knots rather than force through them with a conventional rigid-bristle design.
Tangle Teezer is the product and brand name, not the inventor's name. It is also sometimes confused with other Dragon's Den product entrepreneurs, including Tom Pellereau, who became known for different inventions. The answer is the creator of the original detangling brush.
