This shaving brush is our filled with the highest quality pure bristle hair, which has been carefully graded for use in hand filled brushes.

I recently decided to move away from the 'ordinary' foam / gell in a can approach to shaving, and purchased one of these brushes from the Shaving Shack. I opted for a travel brush as it is still realtively cheap, and meant that if I did enjoy using a brush I would be able to 'trade up' for the home shave, and still have this one for taking travelling. Waste not, want not and all that!

I have used both a solid shaving soap and the cream that comes with this brush, shaving with my Gillette Fusion (hoping to make the switch to a DE Safety Razor shortly). The shave I have been getting is an instant improvement over the goop in a can. The brush works especially well with a solid soap, and I am greatly enjoying the ritual of whipping up a lather and painting it onto my face. Shaving has become something more of a pleasure as a result. The brush works equally well with the cream and I will continue to use the tube I have, though I have discovered that my personal preference is definitely a solid soap.

I am now ready to 'trade up' to a higher quality brush, maybe a badger bristle, but this brush will definitely not be abandoned. I very much intend to keep using it when I'm on the move.

The sole improvement that I think could be made to this brush would be if the storage tube could somehow double as a drip stand. I'm not sure exactly how this could be done - maybe a slightly longer tube with the stand being a circular affair than sits inside it? That would make it the ultimate travelling brush companion, in my book.

Overall, a great product, and one well worth considering for the traveller who needs to minimise luggage but doesn't want to go back to goop in a can. Actually, this brush plus a solid soap would take up much less room on the move, and would also have the bonus that there's no danger of goop exploding in your suitcase! :-)

Tips on caring for your shaving brush

Use warm water! Hot or boiling water can cause damage, ultimately resulting in shedding. Hot, in brush terms, is usually considered to be anything above the 50 degree Celcius mark.

Go easy with your brush! The core of the brush is where the magic happens and mashing down with your brush can twist and break the core hairs and over time cause hair loss and a dimpled effect in the center of the brush.

Rinse and dry after use. When you are done using your brush shake or flip it hard a few times to remove all the water and hang upside down in a stand to dry. If you don’t have a stand dry the brush thoroughly on a towel.

Why is my brush shedding?

Intermittent shedding is quite normal across all makes of brush. Please read our magazine article that explains the issue, its causes and how you can prevent it happening: Why is my shaving brush shedding hair?!!
