Men's Pure Badger Shaving Brush | Perfect Shave by Beau Brummell | Ergonomic Waterproof Black Resin Handle | 100% Badger Brush with Refined Materials | For Safety, Straight, Shaving and Double Razors

The Beau Brummell Shaving Brush is an absolute dream to shave with. Today was my first DE shave, and the brush performed pretty well with no experience on using a shave brush. I received the brush yesterday, and decided to follow a tip I'd found to help break in a brush. To remove the scent, fill up a bowl or cup with hot water and a few drops of dish soap. Let your brush soak in the dish soap for about five minutes, and rinse the brush out until no soap remains. This will also help knock out some loose hairs that are in the brush. Proceed to load your brush with shave soap and build up a lather in a bowl, mug, or on your hand. Once you have a nice shave lather built up in the brush, set the brush down next to your sink and let it stay there overnight. This method claims to help break in the brush by imparting the conditioning qualities of the lather to the brush. The next morning, rinse the brush out completely and it's ready to use. I followed the methods described, and still had some hairs coming out of the brush on my first shave today, but I suspect that is normal. The handle was easy to grip, even though I had shave lather covering most of it while I lathered up my face. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase and will continue to enjoy this great shaving brush.

Updated review - after using for past year plus, it is starting to lose bristles like crazy. They end up in sink, on my face, in drain (hope it doesn't clog). I have never had a brush shed like this before so very disappointing. Otherwise, it is very durable and soft. I really enjoyed it at first but would think it would last longer. I have had other brushes last for years.Original ReviewSuper soft with minimal break in. I let it sit in hot water for about 10 minutes and by the 2nd shave, seemed very well broken in. I didn't notice any hairs falling out so well constructed. My old brush lasted several years but wood handle started to "blacken" from water and soften up so hoping that this handle will last a long time. Nicer quality of hair than my old brush and like the slight rounded shape of bristles. Very surprised by the quality for the price.

Bought it in November of 2015 and am writing this now in April of 2020 after giving it its regular good cleaning and realized that I hadn’t yet left a review. It’s a good brush for the money. It loses a few bristles every now and then, but over 4 years later, my brush is still full, springy and soft.

For years I've lathered up for shaving with a basic drugstore shaving brush. Never again! It's ridiculous how good a shave feels using this brush.Lathering up feels great, and the shaving soap really does surround and lubricate better using badger hair. I've got fairly large hands, and the brush fits my hand quite well. I bought it to fit in the Chrome Razor and Shaving Brush Stand, and it fits perfectly. I chose it for the design and for the resin handle, which I expect to last longer than a wood handle. All in all, very pleased!

I have only been using the Beau Brummell shaving brush for about a week, great value for the price. I'm just getting back to wet shaving after a long absence. This brush holds a good amount of moisture for working up a thick lather and does a very nice job of working the lather into my whiskers. It appears to be a good quality product at a reasonable price. What more can you ask? As with any natural shaving brush it takes a while to "break in", so I'm expecting the results will be even better over time.

I enjoy this brush. It makes a much better lather than the old entry level brush I got for a few bucks. But after 6 months it still loses more than a few hairs everytime I use it. I would probably pay more for a brush that does not shed next time.

Awesome piece indeed.This is my second brush. I bought it as I thought my first one was too old. I asked other fellow amazonians and many said that they don't age as long as one takes good care. I am glad I did get this one, though.* Soft on the skin* Shed does occur but minimal* Makes great foam* I like the handle finishing (my first one's handle was damaged by water; pealing of coating).I totally recommend it and would buy again, for self and as gifts.

It is a gift for my Dad. I haven't given it to him yet. Looks like a product of a good quality though. The smell was strong for a couple of days, but now it is gone completely.I will post here again once Dad will have tried it.
