Advantages: Excellent quality, sturdy, gets the tangles out of my hair with no fuss at all, reasonably priced

Disadvantages: ---------------

I needed a new hair brush but wasn't prepared to pay anything near the £10 - £18 price tag in Boots, but I wanted one that was sturdier than the cheap ones I'd seen in Tesco for a couple of pounds. I had no idea that Avon even sold hairbrushes until I was looking to make an order up to get a discounted Christmas ornament, even better the brush was half price so I had a bargain.

This is a cushion brush which means it's gentle on your hair as the thick bristles will give more than a hairbrush which has fixed bristles along a hard spine. The cushion is perfect and allows neither too much or too little movement of the bristles; too much and the tangles would not be forced from your hair, too little and your hair may well be ripped out by the roots if it gets as tangled as mine does after washing.

I like the feel of the handle of this hairbrush as it is a comfortable fit and doesn't slide around in my hands even when they are damp. The handle is quite chunky and again this makes it comfortable to hold, although my hair is short and I have no interest in giving myself a big style so I tend not to be holding the brush for longer than a few minutes! My daughter has long hair and brushes hers like a demon, she's used this brush in the past as apparently it's been available for years and said it coped well with the brushing and lasted for ages.

I have had no problems whatsoever with this hairbrush in the two months I've been using it daily, none of the bristles have worked loose and generally this is a well constructed and sturdy brush which I think will last me for a long time to come.

The hairbrush retails at £5.00 or thereabouts, I paid £2.45 for it when it was on half price offer so definitely worth you looking out for next time it is reduced in price. To be honest though even at full price this is a bargain as it's much better than my previous hairbrush which cost almost £10 last summer and fell to pieces within four months!

Summary: An excellent hairbrush, thanks to Avon!
