Second to the razor blade, the 100% natural Badger Hair Shave Brush is the essential tool used to achieve the best shave possible. Badger hair has a great ability to retain water (which helps create a lather when mixed with a shave cream) improving the barrier between the razor and skin, lifting facial hair to ensure a smoother shave with less irritation. The pure badger hair travel aluminum shave brush features a two piece aluminum handle with a matte black anodized finish.
