Hi. My hair is fine, chin length and very straight. As I’m getting older, it’s also beginning to thin. I’m thinking of investing in a Mason Pearson hairbrush but the cost is making my eyes water! Is the investment worth it?

Firsttimenanna, I'm not sure if an expensive hairbrush will help. Hopefully a hairdresser reading this will be able to give you a more helpful answer! Have you changed your shampoo and conditioner? Biotin is a good supplement to take for stronger hair and nails, all multi vitamins don't contain enough of that but biotin alone can be purchased from Amazon (or Nature's Best - where buy all my vitamin supplements from) Hope that's of some help?

MP brushes are wonderful if you have thick hair and need something strong to get through it.

Forget the brush Minoxidil is the only thing that is proven to help, can get it from Boots.

* firsttimenanna* I agree with Nana58 Minoxidil is the best idea and when conditioning your hair leave the product on a good 5mins and don't rub your hair dry just pat it dry then gently comb through you will soon see a difference.
