6 rings of bristle & nylon tufts. Boar Bristle & Nylon Tufts generally used for normal to thick hair. A Mason Pearson hairbrush is designed to provide many years of quality usage. Each brush comes with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects, but not against normal wear and tear. Regular brushing plays an important part in the condition of your hair. The Mason Pearson Hairbrush cleans the hair, stimulates the scalp increasing the blood flow to the hair roots. A natural conditioning oil - sebum - comes from the hair giving it strength, suppleness and producing a healthy sheen. To maintain the quality of the Mason Pearson Hairbrush it is not mass produced. Most of the work is carried out by hand, using techniques pioneered and patented by the founder - Mason Pearson - over one hundred years ago and improved over succeeding generations. Mason Pearson Hairbrushes of London, England were established as a premier hairbrush manufacturer in the 1860s. From the time of its inception the company has pioneered hairbrushes that are designed to maximize the health and appearance of the hair and scalp. In 1885, Mason Pearson invented and patented the pneumatic cushion for the hairbrush, thus creating a unique brush that retinas its desirability as an elegant cosmetic accessory to this day. The brush is product in the "old world" manner, with many steps executed by hand and extra care taken to create a magnificent hair product. Why Mason Pearson? Hairbrushes by Mason Pearson are recognized by discriminating consumers as unique in both design and quality. The distinctive design incorporates spired, uneven tufts of boar bristle and nylon mixture set in a pneumatic rubber pad that enables each individual tuft to penetrate through to the scalp. Mason Pearson's ingenious brush construction achieves the desired type of scalp stimulation by adjusting automatically to the contour of the scalp without irritation. Equally important is the quality of the bristles. Mason Pearson uses only the finest quality natural bristle from the wild boar - preferably from the colder climates, where boar bristle grows heavy and strong for protection. Animals are not harmed in the collection of bristle. In addition to the all-natural boar bristle, Mason Pearson offers a mixed bristle version. These contain a nylon strand in each tuft of pure boar bristle to afford better penetration to the scalp. The durable nylon strand, with specially rounded ends, is longer than the boar bristle and serves primarily to massage and stimulate the scalp, bringing out the natural oils. The company also offers all-nylon brushes designed to gently brush out he hair after shampooing. Mason Pearson's bristle is just right! if the bristle is too soft, it cannot penetrate to the scalp completely. If the bristle is too hard, it can cause inflammation and soreness of the scalp. Customers quickly discover that a Mason Pearson brush feels terrific and performs beautifully. Made in London. |

Since the function of the brush is to clean soil from the hair the brush should be cleansed frequently. A cleaning brush is included with all brushed (except pocket and child sizes) which is used to remove trapped hair and scales from the bristles. There are two recommended cleaning methods.
When more thorough cleaning is needed, follow these simple steps:
Full cleaning instructions are included with each brush. Failure to comply with these care instructions will render the manufacturer's warranty null and void. |

I've never been able to find a better hairbrush than this one. Have been using Mason Pearson hairbrushes for over 30 years and have owned less than 4. Had to get new ones because I lost them, not because they wore out. My first hairbrush I had for over 10 years. Excellent for fine hair as it does not pull or rip. The price for this hairbrush at drugstore.com is the best around and when additional discounts are offered, all the better! You will love this brush!! My teenage daughters with long fine hair love this brush too!!

I recently purchased this brush hoping to replace my lost Mason Pearson brush I purchased 5 years ago. I just received the brush for Christmas 2006, and to my shock and dismay, the quality of brush is extremely inferior to my purchase of 5 years ago. The bristles of the brush are now shorter by about 30%, and of inferior quality to my former Mason Pearson brush. You can see places where the seams of the rubber are poorly glued to the body of the brush. Sad. The body of the brush lacks the weight and substance of my former MP brush with the material of this "newer" brush being a lightweight, plastic-type substance that looks and feels cheap. The box the brush came in looks cheap, and now has a large plastic open window in the front, like the boxes used for Barbie dolls. The owners manual is disappointing; instead of a nice small booklet, you get some loose leaf piece of paper that is tri-fold and looks like it was printed on my home PC. I will be returning it.

I have owned my Mason Pearson brush for 10+ years and still looks like new. It's the only brush my 4yr old lets me use on her.
My mom used it a few years back while visiting and said was best brush she ever used and asked where I got it. I bought it for her for Christmas knowing she would never spend this much on a brush but now 3yrs later she said its worth it and it still looks brand new.
Now I just purchased a third brush for my mother in law, who also used on a recent visit and raved as well asking where I bought it.
It's so worth the money since it lasts rather than pending less money on lower quality brushes that you need to replace yearly

I have had my 2 Mason Pearson brushes since the early 70's, when my best friend and airline co-worker told me this was the best investment to get for my long hair while shopping in the unique boutiques of Georgetown, Washington D.C. I got the full and travel size. Each came with a cleaner brush. I take care of them, keep them clean & they work & look just as beautifully as the day I got them. These brushes help keep my long hair healthy (now shorter at shoulder length), and are the only ones I use! They easily brush thru my hair & stimulate my scalp. A definite win-win investment.

mason pearson brushes are among my favourite products. they're well-made and durable. i bought this brush for travel purposes. i have fine hair, but i have a lot of it, and this brush does a great job of brushing it all out without ripping or tearing my hair (or my scalp!) like a previous reviewer, i also wish the bristles were a bit longer, but overall, i'm quite happy.

The product works wonderful. I have had one before and I love using them. I wouldn't use any other brush. For future users or other potentilal users, it is worth the $, I care for them properly and they'll last for a very long time. My first one was given to me by my mother as she has used nothing else and she used nothing else. Excellent product.

This brush stimulates the scalp oils to make your hair shine. It's totally different than the plastic brushes I have used in the past.

Mason Pearson has never had their brushes in boxes with see-through windows that Im aware of. I have a Mason Pearson and have had it for 10 years now. I am just now looking for a new one. It will last a long time and it's a great product. Would recommend to anyone willing to make the investment.

I love my Mason Pearson hairbrush, I have had mine for 18 years, it's in beautiful condition. My hair is long and wavey with a lot of body; I ended up breaking the handles off the hair brushes I used or the expensive salon brushes would fall apart in a year or two, not the Handy Mixte. The cost of the Mason Pearson hair brush is well worth the price!
