Handmade since 1885, Mason Pearson brushes are still a cult favorite. Its boar bristles (the best for your hair) massage your scalp and distribute natural oils down the length of your hair, creating healthier, stronger and even shinier hair. The brushes come in a variety of sizes, shapes, colors and bristle combinations. Pure boar is great for normal to fine hair, a combo of boar and nylon is better for normal and short thick hair, and all nylon is best for very thick hair. They even make a version for sensitive scalps. The design has been the same, “not bettered,” since the 1920s, so even though these are an investment, they last a long time. $99-$170
