    As luck would have it, I was able to get a Handy (BN3) brush for about $80 -- a steep discount from its retail price of $195. A few weeks ago, I wrote about the Drybar Flat Mate brush as being a...

    I have had mine (mixed bristle) paddle shape for decades. Since the 1980s. It's Durable and lasts. Easy to wash. I don't use it often anymore. But, it's perfect if I want full hair (I have...

    After 10 years or so of frying my hair via a straightener everyday, I decided to start looking after it properly. I started with ditching shampoo and styling products, then to find a decent brush....

    So... I was under the impression that a hairbrush was just a hairbrush. I was wrong! I love this thing. Makes my thin, dry, damaged hair look so much better. Healthy looking and shiny, with less...

    This is a super expensive hairbrush. That said, the quality is excellent. I bought the pocket pure boar bristle at first because I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the larger sizes -- silly...

    This is the perfect brush for me. I do tend to get oil roots (i exercise alot)and dry ends and my hair is so long. This has helped so much with distributing the oil throughout my hair. I love this...

    There is no comparison between this and other brushes. I lost my Mason Pearson Mixed Bristle a few years ago. Since then, I used "substitute" brushes -- ones that cost around $20-$40 -- never...

    I have always had exceptionally thick, coarse, Asian hair (and hope to for many years to come!) and found that my hair was never 'brushed' until I got to this brush. I came across this when an old...

    I'm a bit torn when it comes to this one. On the one hand it's very high quality so in that sense I do think it warrants its price. On the other hand my hair is way too thick for this brush. Maybe...
