Product Overview

Progress Vulfix 2235 Super Badger Shaving Brush

Product

The Progress Vulfix 2235 Super Badger Shaving Brush is a larger format brush and one of the "Premier Series", which are among the most popular of the Vulfix line. A dense loft of excellent grade Super Badger hair which provides a soft brush perfect for both soaps and creams and good exfoliation of the skin prior to shaving. The loft has fabulous water retention to ensure a luxurious lather.  A fabulous handle with an almost spherical top, sitting atop a tapering flared base. The handle is lathe turned pure resin with a 'faux ivory' finish, reminiscent of the most traditional of shaving brushes. All Progress Vulfix Brushes are Hand Made in Isle of Man, British Isles.

How to use

The brush bristles should be wet (not soaking) before use. Load the loft with soap or cream and apply to the areas to be shaved, using a strong circular motion. This softens the hairs and also raises them ready for shaving.

We strongly recommend the following aftercare for your brush; When finished always rinse the brush under hot water (especially at the base of the bristles) to remove any remaining soap residue which can result in damage to the bristle and cause early shedding of the loft. The brush should then be stored loft facing down to dry. This can be achieved by using a shaving brush stand and prevents the bristles rotting at the base due to moisture.

Recommended for

Both shaving creams and shaving soaps and all skin types.

Grooming tip

All shaving brushes need to be 'broken-in' and this is achieved simply by using the brush. The more it is used, the more the hairs will soften and split at the ends to create a softer tip

Brand Information

Progress Vulfix

Progress Vulfix is one of the premier and most venerable manufacturers of badger shaving brushes in the United Kingdom. Way back in 1893, when top hats were still the height of fashion and handlebar moustaches roamed the streets of Manchester, the Vulfix Old Original Shaving Brush Company came to life. In 1954, amidst the industrial buzz, the company relocated to the Isle of Man where it has been operating from ever since. 2008 sees the birth of the Progress Shaving Brush (Vulfix) Limited which includes the Simpson brand ........ it's like a soap opera, but with more lather ........ Progress Vulfix is renowned for its hand-crafted shaving products and accessories. Their superb quality is complemented by an excellent value for money and Progress Vulfix has deservedly gained a first class reputation for service in the wet shaving market.   All the brushes are handmade and stamped Vulfix Old Original.

    Lovely shaving brush

    Posted by Adrian on 21st Jan 2022

    A really soft and flexible shaving brush that makes a good lather quickly and feels super comfortable against the face. Nicely balanced in the hand and a pleasure to use.

    a good buy

    Posted by Robi on 3rd Mar 2016

    Il pennello in questione ha soddisfatto tutte le mie aspettative. Molto bello il look vintage, le dimensioni ed il ciuffo molto grande. Le setole molto morbide raccolgono una gran quantità di acqua...non serve inzupparlo...e rendono il sapone una crema densa che rende la rasatura un momento piacevole. Io lo uso accoppiato al mio Straight Razor 72 J.A. henckels una gran coppia. Grazie a Maguire's barbershop, è stato un piacere acquistare. P.S. Il miglior prezzo trovato nel web

    full set

    Posted by craig on 12th Mar 2014

    I bought a Merkur 38C along with Progress Vulfix 2235 bader shaving brush and Proraso eucalyptus and menthol pre/post shave and shaving soaps. The full set in one go after spending ages looking at reviews. Firstly, really pleased with Maguires, service was first class - especialy when the parcel didn't turn up as planned, the communication was spot on. I expected it to take a while to get used to a new style/technique of shaving with a few cuts along the way but I'm pleased to say that one week in - no cuts and shaving is now a treat rather than a chore- 5*

    A real luxury !!!

    Posted by Vassilis on 17th Nov 2013

    I bought this brush, although I prefer silvertip ones, and the only thing I can say is that Vulfix Super Badger has very soft hair with creamy tips which make shaving a total luxury.I think it's better than the silvertip version of the same brand. I strongly recommend it. The price is extremely good for a large brush like this and for its high quality.
