Beautiful hair needs an expert: Mason Pearson Hairbrush

So today's expert is Ted Gibson, hairstylist to the stars and owner of the Ted Gibson Salon in New York. He recommends handmade Mason Pearson brushes as necessary tools for maintaining healthy hair. They stimulate the scalp and spread the hair's natural oils from roots to ends.

I own the "Detangler" with nylon tufts in white/ivory, which is recommended for very thick hair and as a detangler for wet hair. This was an investment- I know my hair is totally worth it- and I think it's a must in maintaining the health of Nia Long's hair!

Do you own a Mason Pearson brush? If so, do you recommend it?

Beautiful hair needs an expert.

I love Cassie's hair in this photo- it looks so soft and chic! But what I love most is that this look can be achieved by anyone (and of course her extensions add additional length). After shampooing and throughly conditioning the hair, blow-dry using your favorite blow-drying serum and section off for curling using at least a 2-inch curling iron. Apply a thermal protector to the hair before curling. As each section is curled, form a pin curl and secure with a clip. Once all of the hair has been pin curled, allow to set before removing clips and finger styling. Finish by applying a few drops of a glossing serum and hairspray for hold. Above I've included the products and tools to achieve her look.

Has anyone used Terax products? If so, what are your thoughts?
