Shop the Skims x Tangle Teezer Collaboration Here
Skims has a knack for making even everyday essentials feel collectible. Case in point? Its limited-edition collaboration with Tangle Teezer, which debuted last October and sold out on the Skims website in just three hours. Now, the brushes are back (but if history is any indication, not for long).
The collection pairs Tangle Teezer’s popular Ultimate Detangler Brush with Skims’ signature, neutral color palette; more importantly, each of the four colorways is designed with a specific hair type or texture in mind. That means shoppers can choose their brush based on individual hair-care needs and not just according to which shade looks best on their bathroom counter.
For straight to wavy hair, there’s Clay, a warm neutral that gives the product its understated look. Cocoa is a godsend for fine and fragile hair, meanwhile, and Sienna is a fit for all naturally curly girls. Then there’s Jasper, Skims x Tangle Teezer’s extra-gentle option with a softer approach to detangling.
The brushes are meant to work through tangles on wet or dry hair, making them versatile enough for post-shower detangling, taming next-day knots, and smoothing strands before styling. The Ultimate Detangler is one of Tangle Teezer’s hero offerings, known for its flexible teeth that are intended to move through tresses without excess pulling.
Skims x Tangle Teezer is part of the former’s broader expansion beyond its core shapewear and underwear categories. The Kim Kardashian–helmed brand has increasingly leaned into collaborations as a way of putting its distinctive aesthetic on familiar products, with notable past partnerships ranging from Dolce & Gabbana and Roberto Cavalli to The North Face and pool accessories destination Funboy.

For Straight to Wavy Hair

Clay
Meet the Skims x Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler in Clay, a godsend for straight-to-wavy hair that tends to turn into a knotty situation. The brush eases its way through tangles (wet or dry) with flexible teeth that leave breakage in the rearview mirror. The pictured neutral shade is also a pretty convincing reason to leave your hair brush out instead of hiding it in a drawer.

Cocoa
The Cocoa Ultimate Detangler specifically targets fine and fragile hair (as well as hair that’s been “heat-damaged or color-treated,” per the label). Respectful of sensitive scalps, this brush has a deep Cocoa finish that only adds to its appeal — being quiet-luxury and easy on the eyes.

An Extra-Gentle Option

Jasper
Prefer to go softer and slower when addressing pesky knots? This Jasper iteration is the gentlest of the bunch, coming equipped with a wide-spaced teeth pattern that thins out towards the edges, effectively alleviating breakage and hair loss alike. In that light hue, it’s about as attractive as a hair brush can get.

The four brushes originally disappeared from Skims’ website within three hours of their October unveiling. Now that all four colorways have returned to online shelves, beauty gurus who missed the initial launch have another opportunity to shop; given the public’s response to the first drop, though, availability may not last indefinitely.
