Regular brushing plays an important part in the condition of your hair. The Mason Pearson Hairbrush cleans the hair, stimulates the scalp increasing the bloody flow to the roots. A natural conditioning oil – sebum- comes from a gland at the base of every hair and brushing spreads it along the length of the hair giving it strength and suppleness that produces a healthy sheen. Mason Pearson build their products to last as long as possible. While they cannot make indestructible products, they use the best materials available so that, with a little care, they should give good service. Mason Pearson try to make improvements continuously. They have developed their own special nylon and take particular care in their selection of natural bristles to use the best combination for each brush.
