After spending the last few months scooping a (quite frankly) alarming number of broken hairs out of my sink, I decided that drastic measures were called for. Enter theCharlotte Tilbury-approvedMason Pearson. This is a brush with a pedigree. But it is not a cheap date. It is very rarely — almost never — on sale anywhere, but it is today! Normally $120 (I know, I know), Violet Grey is offering $15 off of purchases of $100 and more, plus free shipping on this fineCyber Monday. Which brings the Mason Pearson down to $105.

Now, I understand that that is still a pretty penny. But again, drastic measures. My hair isthinfine,greasyoil-prone, andneeds a haircutgrown out. All of this, plus a minor case of alopecia areata routinely makes me want to pull out whatever hair hasn’t already fallen down my drain. This brush is designed for gals like me. The rubber cushion pad stimulates and massages the scalp, promoting growth, while the boar bristles evenly distribute sebum to create shine and prevent breakage.

And don’t let the pocket size fool you. It does everything a standard size brush can do. Plus, I think there’s something comforting about knowing I can take this little bit of luxury with me wherever I go.

Annie Dillard once said, “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” I am content to spend the rest of my life with this brush. Until death do us part.
