Product
The Semogue 1470 Pure Bristle Shaving brush is a great looking brush with classic styling. It features an hour glass curved Beech wood handle, common to many Semogue brushes, with a clear matt finish. The handle carries the unmistakable 'Excelsior' badge and is topped with a 'silver' collar which holds the renowned Semogue densely filled Pure Boar Bristle loft. A great looking brush with excellent performance. Hand Made in Portugal.
(NB. The handle is made of a natural material and there will be variations in the grain to the images shown)
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.
