I have ordered from tressence on 2 occasions and have found the products to be at the best price and of of perfect quality,well package and with fast shipping..And if you are wondering weather or not a mason person brush makes a difference in hair quality ,the answer is absolutely!I have fine to med. textured hair and had split ends and breakage, I do not perm or color,,I was on the fence for a very long time and finally splurged for a 100% boar hair brush by mason pearson,{I owned other boar hair brushs that was much less priced and not great to get completely to the scalp and went back to a regular brush, mason pearson boar hair is much stiffer and well made and gets through to the scalp }after several months of use I have found little to no breakage in my hair and my hair seems thicker and with new growth of hair!Ibought both the 100% boar hair and the one with nylon and boar hair..very very thick hair would probably be best with the mixed bristles.I also bought the combs which are hand made in Switzerland and very smooth also do not cause breakage,I love the rake comb for after shampoo detangling..So I took the time to write this review because a mason pearson brush is very expensive for the average hard working person like myself,this is a splurge but so worth it and will last my lifetime because I will take very good care of it ..I bought the largest brushs,the 100% is called the" extra" and is the biggest,and the mixed bristles is the "popular",I also have the smallest size for my purse for touch ups in the 100% boar hair..I do not often write reviews but I hope this helps..
