To achieve the masterpiece effect, it is necessary to have the proper tools. The Art of Shaving badger shaving brushes are integral to your toolkit. Why a Shaving Brush? Using a shaving brush provides a few major benefits. The first is that the brush itself will provide you with a light exfoliation so that the dead skin cells in your facial hair are washed away. Secondly, a shaving brush softens and lifts the hair away from the face. This means that the need to press your blade into your face to get a close shave is gone. Finally, using your hand to apply shaving crème is less sanitary and mats down your hair, increasing the possibility of ingrown hairs. Why Badger? It may seem strange, but badger hair is the key element to the perfect shaving brush. Sure, the handle needs to be sturdy and should fit comfortably in your hand. The material of the brush head is the most important factor, however. Since badgers are endangered in the United States, most badger hair comes from China where badgers are invasive and detrimental to farmers. Some brands attempt to pass off boar hair as badger hair. This may seem like splitting hairs—pun intended—but there is a big difference between the species. Boar hair is very coarse and wiry. Badger hair is coarse enough to give a little scrub yet fine enough not to scratch your face. The great thing about badger hair is that it holds a large amount of water to create a rich lather.
