To celebrate 2,000 likes on our Hairdresser On Fire Facebook page, we’re doing a great giveaway today. Since 2,000 was a big one, I decided to give away one of my favorite tools, the Pocket Mason Pearson. I have called Mason Pearsons the Rolls Royce of hair brushes, and whoever owns one (or wins this) will understand why. It not only feels amazing just holding it, but it also glides smoothly through your hair with each luxurious bristle. I fancy this brush, I fancy everything about it.

This brush is great for any hair type or length, but with it being the pocket size, it is especially great for short haireds, and be-bangeds. If you want the world’s smoothest bangs (like Zooey’s) blow dry them with this brush. Trust. Just trust.

To enter, just leave me a comment. A nice one. Or a funny one! Yeah! For an extra shot at winning, tweet linking to this giveaway and leave your tweet’s URL in your extra comment. I’ll choose a winner in one week!

Good luck, and coming up soon will be another giveaway to celebrate 2,500 likes!

My Denman strawberry scented brush

One of my very favorite hair tools is my Denman scented brush. I have the strawberry one and it reminds me of my dolls and scratch/sniff books from my childhood. I’ve had this brush for over a year and it still smells! I rarely use it on clients, but when I do they all say “MMMmmmm!”.

Get one here! And they’re on sale!

PS I try not to hold a grudge against Denmans for having to learn how to blow dry a bob with them. In my opinion, a Mason Pearson is a way better option for a bob blow dry. But I do love Denmans, regardless. And they serve a wonderful purpose.

Especially when they’re scented.

Hair Answers: Best flat brush

Q by Amanda: First, I’m looking for a new, great hairbrush. Do you have any recommendations? I have wavy hair that I straighten, if that makes a difference. Also, what brand of dry shampoo do you recommend? (Sorry if you already answered this- I couldn’t find it) Thanks!! ~(hdof says use batiste dry shampoo!)~

**A by Reagan: I’m pretty surprised this is our first question about brushes! Hooray! So, the first brush that comes to any hairstylists’ mind is (Cue angels singing)……

The Glorious Mason Pearson

This hair brush is the Rolls Royce of Hair brushes. I’m not really sure what else I need to say about it. If you have ever held one in your hand, you know…you just know the difference between it’s magnificence and other ordinary hair brushes. Please buy this hair brush. A regular sized one (there is also extra large and pocket size) will cost you almost 150$. Ask for it for mother’s day/christmas/birthday/halloween/or just I want it and what are you going to do about it day.  Here is an oath.

I, Hairdresser on Fire Breinholt, do solemnly swear that this hair brush kicks total ___, and your hair might explode in a good way when it finds out you bought it. Rave. Rave. Rave. This is me raving.

And now, let me present you with your knock-off…

The Denman

I’ve never used the Denman’s knock off version of the MP, but I know Denman is a great brand, and 15$ is very inexpensive. I’m just guessing that you’d be able to tell the difference in quality right away if you held one of each in your hands, but again, I’ve never used this brush. I have used several knock off MPs, and they have all been pretty good, but there is just no comparison to the real thing. It’s like a chinatown bag and a real bag. It may look almost the same, but when you touch it, feel it, hug it, you just know you’ve got an impostor.

Every woman deserves to have a Mason Pearson Hair Brush. I think they should give me some presents for saying that.

**I responded right away and asked Amanda specifically what kind of brush she was looking for, she replied that she was looking for a flat brush. I assume pretty soon we’ll do a few posts on some more types of brushes…
