Kim Kardashian's SKIMS X Tangle Teezer hairbrushes sold out in just three hours when they first launched – and now the viral collaboration is back in stock, giving shoppers another chance to get their hands on the limited-edition collection.
The brushes first dropped in October 2025, with all four designs quickly disappearing. Although they made a brief return during the holidays, the latest restock marks the first time the collection has been available again this year.
But what makes the collaboration so sought-after?
The appeal lies in the combination of SKIMS' instantly recognisable aesthetic and Tangle Teezer's focus on detangling hair. Instead of offering a single generic brush, the collection includes four designs tailored to different hair types and needs.
That means the attraction is not simply about owning something associated with the Kardashian's hugely recognisable brand. The brushes are also designed to serve a practical purpose, giving shoppers another reason to seek them out.
With their neutral shades and distinctive SKIMS styling, the brushes also turn an everyday hair tool into an accessory that looks at home on a dressing table.
Four Brushes Designed for Different Hair Types
The collection features four versions of the Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler, each presented in a different neutral SKIMS shade.
The Ultimate Detangler in Straight to Wavy Clay is designed for use on wet hair. Its two-tiered teeth are designed to detangle and smooth strands simultaneously, making it the option best suited for straight-to-wavy hair.
For those with fine or fragile strands, the Ultimate Detangler in Fine and Fragile Cocoa features soft-flex teeth. The design is intended to gently work through knots while being kinder to hair that may have become brittle from colouring or heat.
Then there is the Ultimate Detangler in Naturally Curly Sienna, created with curly-haired shoppers in mind. Its long, firm teeth are designed to tackle difficult tangles, while shorter teeth help reduce frizz and keep curls looking bouncy.
Finally, the Ultimate Detangler in Extra Gentle Jasper is intended for shoppers looking for a particularly gentle brushing experience. It has widely spaced teeth designed to help prevent breakage, along with fewer teeth around the edges to reduce pulling on the hair.
The different designs mean shoppers can choose a brush based on their own hair type rather than simply selecting a colour.
Why the Collaboration Keeps Selling Out
The collection's popularity comes from the combination of recognisable SKIMS styling and hair-specific functionality.
The four brushes share the brand's signature neutral aesthetic, while each serves a different purpose. This gives shoppers both the visual appeal associated with SKIMS and a practical reason to buy.
The original three-hour sell-out has also helped turn the brushes into a highly sought-after limited-edition item.
For anyone who missed the initial release, the holiday return offered another opportunity to buy the collection. However, that return was temporary, leaving shoppers waiting for another chance.
Now, the brushes are back once again.
The latest restock gives fans who missed the previous releases another opportunity to secure one of the four designs. The speed of the original sell-out also adds urgency to the comeback.
The combination of Kardashian's influence, SKIMS' recognisable styling and Tangle Teezer's hair-focused designs gives the collection appeal beyond celebrity fandom.
For shoppers who have been waiting since the brushes disappeared, this could finally be their chance to get one.
