Mason Pearson, the company that made, and kept, a name for itself with a boar-bristle brush, has been run by the same family for four generations. The brush’s design has changed little since the original was created in 1885. It still features a soft rubber pad (thought to be easier on the hair), which might not seem like the biggest deal but was pretty much hair-care heresy in the late 1800s.
