The Mason Pearson Brush


“Improved hair health and fantastic shine has never been easier”

As you run your Mason Pearson Brush through your hair the "natural bristles" clean your hair and each tuft of the brush massages your scalp stimulating your hair follicles to produce a natural conditioning oil called sebum which helps hair health & shine.

Mason Pearson have been making their exquisite hair brushes by hand since 1885 and have a renowned reputation which is based on the combination of:

• The nature of their design which consists of unique spired tufts set in a pneumatic pad so that every tuft penetrates through to your scalp.

• The first class quality of the materials used.

• The versatility of the brush, the qualities of which make it particularly suited to dry skin brushing.

 The original design has never been bettered.

Good General Care of the product will prolong its useful life

Do not use the brush on pets/animals.

Do not leave continuously in strong sunlight during a large part of its life. The ultra-violet light can perish the rubber and the heat can distort the handle.

Important:
Do not use oils or spirits on your hairbrush. These can destroy the rubber. Oil-based preparations used on the hair can do the same if allowed to accumulate.

Cleaning:
You need to clean the pad and bristles periodically . For the best results, use a Cleaning Brush, which comes with the larger size. Otherwise, use a narrow toothbrush. Follow the cleaning instructions below to keep your Mason Pearson Hairbrush in good condition, even after many years of use.

Use a dry cloth to clean it frequently:
The dead hairs and scales from the scalp can clog the pad and bristles of your hairbrush.

1. Loosen any ‘woven’ strands with a comb. Insert the comb at the sides of the brush as near to the pad as possible and follow round the whole circumference of the brush, lifting the hair away.

2. Draw the Cleaning Brush across the bristles from one end of the pad to the other and then diagonally. If there is an accumulation of dust on the surface of the rubber pad, use the tips of the filaments of the Cleaning Brush to dislodge it using a light scrubbing action.

Wash it occasionally. However, you are advised to wash it more frequently, if it becomes apparent that grease is accumulating quickly, because grease in contact with the rubber pad can cause it to deteriorate. Similarly, this applies to hair preparation, oils or chemicals which are likely to remain on the brush after use.

1. Dry clean as above.

2. Make a lather of lukewarm (never hot) soapy water. Do not use detergents, ammonia, petroleum-based products or shampoos to clean the hairbrush.

3. Dip the Cleaning Brush only, and NOT the hairbrush, into the soapsuds and draw it across the bristles from one end of the pad to the other and then diagonally. Use the tips of the filaments of the Cleaning Brush to brush the surface of the rubber pad, with a light scrubbing action in the same way. Hold the hairbrush so that the head is pointing downwards, with the hole at the bottom. This should never be blocked, either when cleaning or when the brush is in use.

4. Dip the Cleaning Brush in clean rinsing water and apply it to the hairbrush.

5. Shake the hairbrush to remove any excessive moisture and leave it to dry with the handle uppermost, and the pad facing downwards.

Never dry the bristles with a towel.

Natural bristle can become brittle if exposed to dry heat for an extended period. So, leave the brush to dry naturally at a comfortable temperature.

Important:
Do not use oils or spirits on your hairbrush: these will destroy the rubber.

Care of the handle: For plastic handles to maintain their shape, do not boil in water or apply heat to them. Strong chemicals , notably nail varnish remover, can attack the surface or cause the plastic to sink . In addition, these can draw out the coloured dyes and pigments from the plastic. For the wooden handles, all the foregoing applies. Also, the presence of water inside the hairbrush will cause the wood to swell and the coating to crack.

 

How to Get Jessica Simpson's Hairstyle

Do you love Jessica Simpson's “sex kitten” hair? Would you like to know how to get it for yourself? Read on to learn how to copy her sexy, tousled waves on your hair.

Things You'll Need:

Large-barreled curling iron
Mason Pearson brush
Hair spray
Mousse

Step 1:
This hairstyle is best on hair that is past the shoulders in length and has long layers cut into it.

Step 2:
To get this style to look its best, wash your hair the night before and apply some mousse while it's still damp. Let your hair completely air dry, or you can blow-dry it to get most of the moisture out. Hair that is clean--but not freshly washed--right before you style it will hold the style better.

Step 3:
When it's time to style your hair, apply some shine serum to the ends to avoid frizzies.

Step 4:
Using a large-barreled curling iron, take a 2-inch section of your hair and wrap it around the curling iron in a spiral-like fashion. Roll the hair up until it is 2 to 3 inches from the root. You want the top of your hair to be smoother, so don't curl all the way up to the scalp.

Step 5:
Once a section is curled, carefully remove the curling iron in order not to disturb the newly-formed wave. Spray the curl with an aerosol hair spray and move on to the next section of hair. Repeat this curling and hair spray process.

Step 6:
Once all of your hair has been curled and set with hair spray, flip your head upside-down and tousle your hair with your fingers.

Step 7:
When you've tousled the hair, flip your head back up and, using a Mason Pearson brush, back comb the hair only at the crown to create a sexy, ‘60s bump.

Step 8:
Now smooth the top layers of your hair by using the Mason Pearson brush. Carefully brush the top portion of the top layers until they sit smooth, with no obvious holes or back-combing showing through.

Step 9:
Create a side part. Swoop your bangs, if you have them, over one eye for extra sex appeal.

Step 10:
Finish off this style with a light misting of hair spray to hold the style.

Dry skin brushing removes the dead surface skin and is an effective method of increasing lymphatic flow. The brush used needs to be of natural bristle and kept dry.

Before showering or bathing, start brushing the skin from the feet. Each stroke should be like a clean sweep always in the direction of the heart.

After the feet, brush up the legs and the buttocks then the hands, arms and down the neck and trunk. For the shoulders and upper back, brush across the top so that exactly the right pressure is applied.

Use skin brushing every day if possible but a minimum of three times a week to not only exfoliate the skin leaving it softer but also as a form of detoxification.
