Denman Hair Brushes

It was during a trip to New York, a young entrepreneur from Northern Ireland John Denman Dean was introduced to a new revolutionary product, Nylon. He returned home with a cabin full of this new material and soon after the war figured a use for it in hairbrushes. That was 1938 and by the 1950’s the reputation of this innovative new brush began to grow. But it was Vidal Sassoon’s 60’s hairdressing revolution that truly established the Denman and the ‘hairdressers’ hairbrush’. The Denman D3 Original Styler was the perfect tool to create the highly technical Sassoon haircuts like the iconic asymmetric Mary Quant bob.

The era of the superstar hairdresser was born. Celebrity hairdressers over the decades may all have had their own unique style, but they also all had a Denman hairbrush. And today this remains true, internationally recognised hair artists like Paul Stafford and Mark Woolley still use Denman tools to create their innovative and inspiring collections.
