Shaving Brush(Badger)

Shure · 15 Nov 2007 at 22:06

I've just tried my first badger shaving brush and I must say I don't know how I've managed without one! After its first use though I got the expected but unwanted hairs that have expanded and made the brush slightly bigger. Although these have gone back to a roughly normal size now does anyone have any tips for looking after the brush?

TIA

I have no idea what you are talking about but your use of words "shaving" & "badger" intrigue me.

It's best to store it upside down, in a non-damp place, and not to leave it wet after use, if you type wet shave into google theres some good resources.

Hmm... I did try and choose my words carefully when I made my original post. I guess I wasn`t careful enough!

Thats similar to what I have been doing. I rinse the brush then gently squeeze out any excess water then I place it in its stand (hairs pointing down) to dry
