Horse's Hair Brush

Last year, I bought this Andrew Barton hair brush from a beauty sale at one of the magazines that I was working at.

As it was the merchandise of a professional hairdresser, I thought it would be a decent brush, one that would last me a fair while.

When I got home I was dying to try it out (as I am with all new beauty products), but to my disappointment it was really not very good.

It felt as though I wasn't even brushing my hair properly, it only brushed the top layer of hair, leaving the undersides still feeling tangled.

The bristles on the brush are extremely hard and sharp and constantly seemed to be scratching my scalp.

On Andrew Barton's website, he claims that this brush is designed "to enhance your hair's natural beauty and shine."

He also deems it to be "kind to your hair with softer, more flexible pins to help reduce hair breakages."

All of this sounds fantastic, until you get the product home and try it out for yourself!

I have even tried to get rid of the brush twice. Once to my sister, who refused to take it, and the second time to a friend, who commented that it was more like the brush she uses on her horse, rather than a hair brush for humans!

So I think that says it all really, an epic fail by professional hairdresser Andrew Barton!
