The Best Mason Pearson Brush

Like a delicate brooch or your granny's hand held mirror, some family heirlooms retain functionality and sentimental charm over the years.

Although passed down from one generation to the next, these well loved precious tokens remain useful in our everyday lives, and therefore, the warm memories can live on.

This is the very same story for the unmistakable Mason Pearson hair brushes. The dark cherry wood handle, orange rubber-cushion pad and massaging bristles quintessentially are a signature for the brand, with this iconic design remaining unchanged for almost 140 years. From a granny's dressing table passed down into granddaughter's tiny hands, these hair brushes boast luxurious qualities that stand the ultimate test of time.

It’s this durability and longevity that makes investing in your very own Mason Pearson hair brush worthwhile.

Mason Pearson's original rubber-cushion hairbrush was designed to flex and contour the scalp for the ultimate comfort in brushing. And it's not a one size fits all kind of brush as bristle varieties and combinations together with overall brush size choice allows you to match your specific hair type to the best brush perfectly.

The idea behind a Mason Pearson brush is to allow the bristles to stimulate the scalp, evenly distribute the hair's natural oils through to the ends of the hair, all whilst encouraging your healthiest and shiniest hair yet. The rubber-cushion pad allows the bristles to almost hug your scalp, giving it a gentle massage with each brush stroke which in turn, helps to stimulate healthy hair growth. And when you take a peek at the top end of these brushes, you’ll notice there's a tiny hole in the timber. This allows airflow for even more cloud-like cushioning under the pad. The bristles effortlessly detangle all hair lengths to leave your hair more manageable with additional natural shine. A Mason Pearson hairbrush is the ultimate hair styling product and anti-frizz hair product, quickly becoming your go-to twice daily ritual to be enjoyed.

What Makes a Mason Pearson Brush So Special?

The classic design originated in London England in 1885, and the Mason Pearson hairbrush remains primarily handmade today. That's right, not spat out of a factory line in mass production, but lovingly handmade with the highest quality craftsmanship around! And I have to admit, once you test it out you'll love it. There is solid comfort in the weight of the brush itself, giving a feeling that the brush means business and has whatever hair condition ahead under control. Furthermore, the smooth contoured handle nestles perfectly in your hand’s grip for comfort and control. The wood handle finish is high gloss and exudes the ultimate in opulence whilst the feeling of a Mason Person brush through the hair is something rather special. I promise you, it will become your favourite hair care product.

Today, you can invest in a Mason Pearson hairbrush in a great variety of sizes; large, pocket, handy, small, child's or junior for the kids, all with colour options plus pure boar bristle, nylon bristle or a combination bristle choice. There's a brush for every hair type and thickness so you'll enjoy a lifetime (or two!) of healthy hair.
