Igroom Magic Detangling Spray is a popular grooming product designed to help owners easily comb and detangle their pet's fur. This spray is specifically formulated for dogs and cats, making it suitable for a wide range of breeds and hair types. One of the standout features of Igroom Magic Detangling Spray is its ability to work effectively on both dry and wet fur. This makes it convenient for use during or after a bath, as well as during regular grooming sessions. The spray is also known for its quick-drying formula, which helps prevent any prolonged wetness or discomfort for the pet. The detangling spray is enriched with natural and nourishing ingredients that help to condition the fur and promote a healthy coat.
As part of my Enjoy Collection project, I started my “ink passport” and I am still enjoying logging my ink usage that way. The base notebook is Midori MD paper. I swatch the inks with a Q-tip and write the name with the first pen I inked up. From there I stamp the inking date. Along with this system, I use an A6 Stalogy that I’ve been using for a few years to track ink. It acts as a sort of index. Going through my list I made in November of last year… I still have a lot of ink exploring to do with inks already in my collection. April through June 2023 I used 57 different inks with blue being the most common color. The most common refill was one of my Chicago Pen Show acquisitions - Colorverse NGC 6302 with 3 refills (this one was in my BB journaller nib, a firehose).
The scream of this perhaps frightening plant was even mentioned in Shakespeare s famous Romeo and Juliet What with loathsome smells, and shrieks like mandrakes torn out of the earth, that living mortals, hearing them, run mad. With its sweet fragrance that acts as an aphrodisiac, the mention of mandrakes in the Song of Solomon is part of a romantic encounter between Solomon and his new wife.
The detangling spray is enriched with natural and nourishing ingredients that help to condition the fur and promote a healthy coat. These ingredients include aloe vera, oatmeal extract, and pro-vitamin B5. Aloe vera is well-known for its soothing and moisturizing properties, while oatmeal extract helps to reduce itchiness and irritation.

Sexuality and Wealth
Often known as mandrake, the Mandragora Officinarum plant is native to both the Mediterranean and the Himalayas. With a long history of use in religious and occult practices, this plant is particularly noted for its potent roots, which somewhat resemble the human body. With purple flowers and green leaves, often arranged in a basal rosette shape, we have created the Mandrake pen using these colors as our inspiration.
One of the earliest mentions of mandrake can be dated back to the Bible. “דודאים”, translated as “love plants”, is mentioned twice in the Jewish scripture – both in the Book of Genesis 30:14–16 and in the Song of Songs 7:12-13. In Genesis 30, Rachel, Jacob’s wife, relies on this special plant to help her conceive a child. With its sweet fragrance that acts as an aphrodisiac, the mention of mandrakes in the Song of Solomon is part of a romantic encounter between Solomon and his new wife. It is suggested that the scripture links the mandrake with sexuality and fertility.
In the Middle Ages, the aphrodisiac and fertility powers of the mandrake flower gained new credence under the so-called Doctrine of Signatures, which understood that plants bearing resemblances to body parts could be used to treat their associated limbs and organs. Mandrakes can look rather like babies, so those having trouble conceiving would sleep with them under their pillows. And it wasn’t just about mandrakes getting people “in the mood” and fertile! According to Anthony John Carter, as he writes in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine in 2003, medieval folk carried mandrake roots around as good luck charms, hoping the plant would grant them not only wealth and the power to control their destiny, but also the ability to control the destinies of others as well. Not surprisingly, the church frowned upon this practice and when, during her trial in 1431, Joan of Arc was accused of having a mandrake about her person, the suggestion helped send her to the stake.
Other legendary stories about mandrake are certainly captivating, suggesting the plant has magical, and sometime menacing, powers. Curiously, mandrake is believed to spring from the dripping blood and semen of a hanged man. Dare pull it from the earth and it lets out a monstrous scream, bestowing agony and death to all those within earshot. Literature includes complex directions for harvesting a mandrake root in relative safety. It was believed that the mandrake could be safely uprooted only in moonlight, after appropriate prayer and ritual, by a black dog attached to the plant by a cord. The scream of this perhaps frightening plant was even mentioned in Shakespeare’s famous Romeo and Juliet: “What with loathsome smells, and shrieks like mandrakes torn out of the earth, that living mortals, hearing them, run mad.”
Mandrake was also considered a key ingredient in a multitude of witches’ flying ointment recipes, as well as a primary component of magical potions and brews. Some believed that witches applied these ointments or ingested these potions to help them fly to witch gatherings and experience bacchanalian carousal.
Having a long history of medicinal and magical use – from witches brew to modern medicine – this fantastic plant is still fundamentally part of our lives and certainly continues to work its magic in our modern day society.

Reviews for "Why Igroom Magic Detangling Spray is a Game-Changer for Long-Haired Breeds"
1. Jane - 2 stars - I really wanted to like the Igroom Magic Detangling Spray, but I found it to be quite disappointing. It claims to easily detangle hair, but I didn't notice much of a difference after using it. My dog's fur was still tangled and matted, and I had to resort to using other products to get the job done. Additionally, the spray had a strong chemical smell that lingered on my dog's fur. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product for detangling purposes.
2. Mark - 3 stars - I had high hopes for the Igroom Magic Detangling Spray, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. While it did help slightly with the detangling process, I found that it didn't work as effectively as other sprays I've tried before. The scent was also quite overpowering and not very pleasant. I would say that it's an average product, but there are definitely better options available on the market.
3. Sarah - 1 star - I was extremely disappointed with the Igroom Magic Detangling Spray. Not only did it fail to detangle my pet's fur, but it also left a sticky residue that was difficult to remove. The spray also made my pet's fur feel greasy and weighed it down. I would not recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective detangling spray, as it simply does not live up to its claims. Save your money and try something else.
