The shaving brush creates a rich lather with shaving soap or cream. In addition, the shaving brush exfoliates the skin and lifts the hairs before shaving, making them easier to cut. The high quality "Black fibre" hairs of the shaving brush are specially developed for shaving. With their dark colour and softness, synthetic hairs are somewhat similar to natural hairs. In addition, the synthetic hairs are somewhat softer at the tip of the brush. The handle is made of polyester, which makes the product pleasantly light.
