It was 1850 when Mason Pearson left the North of England to work at the British Steam Brush Works in London’s East End. At the time, brushes were made by hand – but that all changed when the pioneering Yorkshireman invented a brush-boring machine to speed up the process. Fast forward to today, and the Mason Pearson hairbrush is loved by hairstylists and tress aficionados alike due to its decades-lasting nature and exacting standards (did you know there are 18 stages to creating each one?). Thanks to its famous Mason Pearson boar bristle brushes – including the Popular brush and the Mason Pearson Junior brush – the brand has tools for every type, length and texture, plus a pocket hairbrush so you can look after your locks while on the go.
