As I've mentioned many times in the past, I'm not very keen when it comes to taking care of my hair. Unlike my fastidious skincare regimen, my haircare routine is lackluster at best. But as I'm approaching my late 20s, I'm noticing more and more gray hairs on my head. Therefore, I've been really making an effort to take better care of my hair, not in an attempt to reverse time or fight genetics (thanks a bunch, mom), but simply to appreciate what I've got before it's too late. One of the efforts I made was investing in a Mason Pearson hairbrush, touted as "the Ferrari of brushes". Invented in 1885 by British engineer Mason Pearson, the design of the "pneumatic" rubber cushion hairbrush remained pretty much unchanged for over 130 years. Often passed down for generations, the average Mason Pearson hairbrush is priced well above $100. As someone who never spent more than $20 on hairbrushes, spending that much seems plain crazy! I was very skeptical at first but after doing some research, I decided to pull the trigger.
