100% Black Badger Bristle Shaving Brush With Marbled Handle - Brush Stand Included

The quality of this baby is amazing. I just love it. But looks can be deceiving. The brush hurts my cheeks as I try to go in circles. I feel that the bristles should have been softer, not like tiny knives.

毎日の髭剃りに使っています。使いやすく気に入っています。感謝感謝。

this is my second Parker badger hair brush. I decided to go with a stiffer bristles this time and I like it better. And coincidentally it is less expensive. If you like stiffer bristles choose this one.

Comme l'indique le titre il est bien prémium. Il est imposant, il est beau et très bien réalisé. Dès l'ouverture de la jolie boite on sent bien la qualité du produit. La touffe est grosse avec une très bonne densité. En tirant dessus aucun poil s'est détaché: très bon signe. Tout est bien collé. Je l'ai utilisé plusieurs fois avant de mettre mon commentaire et il n'a perdu aucun poil. La partie centrale est marbrée, bien plus jolie que sur la photo. Le socle est bien réalisé et bien centré. Il est vendu avec son support basique qui fait le job. Deux remarques cependant: c'est du vrai blaireau et il sent un peu l'animal, au fil des usages l'odeur va disparaitre. Deuzio c'est un blaireau pur noir donc le poil le plus courant et le plus rigide: il pique un peu et il est rigide comme un blaireau en soie de porc. Il conviendra mieux pour quelqu'un qui a la peau peu sensible et qui utilise un savon de rasage comme moi. Je recommande sans hésiter.

I'm still fairly new to the safety razor shaving routine, but I previously picked up a "Perfecto" brush under the assumption that it would be good enough to get the job done (and hey, the list price was $49.99 but it was on sale for $10.99 so that seemed like a good deal [what a scam]), and boy was I ever wrong. Sure it worked, technically—I could load my soap into the brush and lather it and more-or-less it would transfer from the brush to my face, but when I was getting into the safety razor shaving routine, part of my reasoning was to get away from the cheap-quality products that heralded themselves as standards, yet had to be replaced every few months. I realized I would inevitably have to replace that cheap brush every few months, and the overall quality just felt extremely cheap, so I opted for this beautiful brush. The first thing you'll notice (or the first thing I noticed, coming from a cheap brush) is the weight. It actually feels like you're holding something of quality, and you most certainly are. The white marble handle contrasting with the black badger brush just looks fantastic. I read a few things about people noticing an odor from this brush, but I didn't experience this. After running through the routine to speed up the break-in process—soaking the brush for 10 minutes, lathering it up, letting it dry overnight, then rinsing it out with warm water and drying it thoroughly—I noticed another big difference between this brush and the Perfecto brush; the hairs don't fall out. While with the Perfecto brush I didn't know any better, and I thought maybe the hairs falling out was normal or part of the break-in process of the first 15 shaves, I don't think I've seen a single hair fall out of this brush yet. Immediately that means this $34 brush will last quite a bit longer than the $10.99 brush would have, if I'd kept it long enough to find out. Sure, it's 3x the price, but it's 10x the quality. One of those instances where you can keep buying a cheap product for a few bucks or you can buy one quality product for a bit more. This brush feels like an ode to the days when products were high quality and would last more than a few years. If you're switching to safety razor shaving, it's likely because you're tired of the cheap products you have to throw away, made of plastic or who-knows-what, along with simply wanting a better shave. I've read there are some brushes out there that are well over $100, and while I can't justify that yet, I know this brush is perfect for me, and if you'd told me a month ago that I could love a shaving brush so much I'd say you were bonkers.
