HAIR TYPES & NEEDS
For fine to normal hair- we generally recommend pure bristle tufts
For normal to thick or long hair– we generally recommend the mixed bristle and nylon tufts
For detangling– if you need a brush to detangle wet hair we generally recommend pure nylon tufts
For sensitive, thinning and very fine hair – we generally recommend the delicate, sensitive SB3
For children– Mason Pearson has developed the gentle CB4 brush especially for children
For men – Mason Pearson has created the handy Military series
BRUSH SIZE
Besides identifying your hair type, it is important to choose the correct size for ease and comfort of use. A rule of thumb; the longer the hair, the bigger the brush is required. The bigger brushes have bigger tufts and therefore make it faster and more effective to brush the hair.
COLOUR
In the Mason Pearson brush collection, we have 4 different colors to choose from; ivory, blue, pink, dark ruby and wood.
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR MASON PEARSON
Cleaning your Mason Pearson brush is very important to keep it in a good condition. All the larger Mason Pearson brushes comes with a cleaning brush, for pocket size brushes a cleaning brush can be purchased. Dry clean it frequently by running a comb gently through the bristles to pull out loose hair. Then use the provided cleaning brush to loosen oils and styling products residue from the pad of the hair brush.
Wash the brush occasionally. Start by dry cleaning, as described above. Then fill a sink part way/a bowl full, add a few drops of gentle hand soap and lather. Do not use detergent, shampoo, ammonia-based cleaners or petroleum-based products for cleaning the brush. Dip the cleaning brush, NOT the hairbrush, in soapy water. Hold the hairbrush upside down with the bristles facing downward, and gently brush the bristles with the wet cleaning brush. Rinse off the cleaning brush in pure water, and repeat cleaning with soapy water. When the entire brush is clean, finish up by shaking the hairbrush to remove excess moisture and leave it to dry with the handle upward and the pad pointing downwards. Never soak the Mason Pearson brush and never use a towel to dry the bristles.
