Flex Brush

Arrive at every event this Summer 2019 with the perfect host/hostess gift. We have something for the fashionista, the wine connoisseur, the stylish traveler, the chocolate lover, and more…

1. The Flex Brush and Spray - For the Beauty Conscious

Look your very best this summer with hair care products from Angelo David. The ultimate detangling brush for wet and dry hair, The Flex Brush is perfect for hot summer days by the water. Safely detangle your hair and ensure no ripping or tearing using the Flex Brush and Flex Spray. In and out of the water during the summer, whether the beach or the pool, can damage the hair’s cuticle layers. Heat or tension from using hair tools and chemical treatments can further impair the hair and cause dryness.

To help avoid bad hair days, celebrity hair stylist, Angelo David, owner of luxury hair studio Angelo David Salon in New York City, has partnered with hair-tool veteran Jacob Guttman, founder and CEO of Creative Pro Hair tools, to create The Flex Brush – the most forgiving hairbrush on the market. They also developed the Flex Spray, a revolutionary leave-in conditioner that increases the hair’s flexibility in order to decrease damage while styling and detangling.

The “Flex” duo detangles safely, massages the scalp and promotes hair health and growth. The brush’s versatility combined with its flex technology, makes it the most versatile brush on the market. It bends to follow the contours of the head and stimulates the production of natural oils. The spray conditions the hair and helps detangle it. Available at www.theflexbrush.com

Harrys Of London

Give the ultimate style gift this season – a gift voucher for Harrys of London. Synonymous with innovative design, high quality manufacturing and modern style, Harrys of London is a quintessentially British contemporary brand. When the iconic brand was conceived in London in 2001 by Matthew Mellon, the purpose was to create ‘shoes that feel like sneakers’, and the business defined a new category.

The Harrys of London concept started with the elegant, sporty lines and unique sole of the popular DOWNING loafer, followed by the soft, unstructured Basel moccasin. These styles which we now refer to as ‘the iconics’ were instantly popular and became the benchmark for everything that followed. Today the brand continues to deliver the ultimate wearing experience for men who do not wish to sacrifice style for comfort and vice versa. For more information, please visit www.harrysoflondon.com.
