Tease Me Brush • Teasing for Buns & Ponytails

Sometimes a hairstyle needs a little lift, not another layer of styling product. The Smooth Company Tease Me Brush helps build volume beneath the surface, giving ponytails, buns and updos a fuller shape while keeping the visible finish neatly smoothed.

The mixed-bristle design brings teasing and finishing together in a lightweight tool that's easy to keep in your styling kit. Use it for subtle crown height, a fuller-looking ponytail or an occasion updo where you want a little more shape without an obviously backcombed look.

Tease Me Backcombing Brush – Design & Everyday Use

Tease Me is for creating shape rather than removing knots. Work through tangles with your usual detangling tool first, then use the teasing brush only in the sections where you want extra lift.

The technique is selective: build a little texture underneath, then lightly arrange the outer layer over it. This lets you keep a clean-looking surface while changing the fullness beneath, whether you're adding gentle height at the crown or preparing a more sculpted updo.

It doesn't need to be part of every hairstyle. For a flat, close-to-the-head finish, follow your usual smoothing routine. Reach for Tease Me when a little added volume is part of the look you're creating.

How to Use The Smooth Company Tease Me Brush

Build gradually rather than repeatedly backcombing the same area. Use a light touch and stop if the hair catches or the technique feels uncomfortable. The brush creates volume; your accessories secure the finished hairstyle.

Dance World Beauty Advice – The Smooth Company Tease Me Brush

Why We Love It

So much of dance hair is about keeping everything smooth and close to the head. It's useful to have a different tool for the occasions when the hairstyle calls for shape instead, a little crown height, a softer updo or a ponytail that looks less flat.

We particularly like keeping the added volume underneath. The hairstyle can still look polished without the teasing itself becoming the feature.

Styling Tip

Leave a thin outer section untouched while you build volume beneath it. Bring that section back over the top and smooth lightly. This helps you refine the finish without brushing straight through the fullness you've just created.

For dance classes or performances with a specified hairstyle, follow that shape first. Teasing is an optional styling technique, not a requirement for a secure ballet bun.

Dance World Verdict

A little lift, exactly where the hairstyle needs it. Tease Me brings a useful shaping option to the brush collection, for the days when polished hair should have a little more volume, not simply a smoother surface.
