Mason Pearson Detangler Nylon Hair Brush Handy Size (N3)
Beautiful hair is soft and silky, brushed to a sheen, clean and fragrant, well cut and styled to flatter the face. And these assets are within the grasp of anyone who is prepared to work at a simple hair care routine. Nature determines the texture of your hair, its natural elasticity and growth rate. All the other qualities depend largely on how - and how often - you use a good hairbrush and a shampoo. Hair is plural Although a single strand of hair is almost invisible to the naked eye, it's not as fragile as you might expect. You have up to 150,000 hairs on your head: about 108,000 if your hair is black, 109,000 if your hair is brown, 140,000 if your hair blond, about 90,000 if your hair is red. Hairs grow and fall out in a continuing process. Even the most healthy head loses an average of thirty a day so don't be surprised if you see a few on your brush. Help your hair to look its best. Brushing the hair cleans and polishes it and stimulates the scalp all at once. And brushing is a wonderful conditioning treatment as it not only distributes oil along the entire hair shaft but gets rid of any scaly particles as well. This is the way to brush: ideally, bend from the waist. Brush from the scalp to the ends of the hair in long, slow, firm strokes, touching the scalp each time with the bristles of the brush. You'll find that a Mason Pearson glides more easily and smoothly through the hair, allowing you to lift your hair in wide curves. A Mason Pearson brush is designed so that every individual tuft penetrates right through to the scalp. Too hard a bristle would hack at your hair and scalp, too soft a bristle would slide ineffectively over your head. Finish off each stroke by sliding the brush off the end of the hair. Now stand up straight and brush down from the top of the scalp. If you have two Mason Pearson brushes take one in each hand and brush as rapidly as you can for a really good hair and scalp tone-up. Brushing is for all hair types.
