I've been wanting a Mason Pearson brush for a long time. I finally decided I was going to make the splurge but I had so many questions. I'm so happy that I googled and found Tressence, rather than ordering from a well known retailer where prices are inflated and fakes abound. Tressence was able to help me learn which brush was right for me and answered all my questions. Best of all, I saved $50! I absolutely love and treasure my new Mason Pearson brush. It's the finest, most luxurious thing I have ever owned. I never liked brushing my hair because of bad experiences as a child, but now I absolutely love it and my hair is shining and healthy. Even my neighbor asked me what I'm doing different to my hair! It FEELS so healthy and soft! I'm a believer! Thank you, Tressence! Shipping was super fast too!
