100% Best Original Pure Badger Hair Shaving Brush Handmade. Faux Agate Handle. Perfect for Wet Shave, Safety Razor, Double Edge Razor

Got it as a gift for my grandfather. He was really pleased with it. The hair is really soft, the handle looks really classy and it feels heavy in the hand. The only downside is that there is a very unpleasant strong smell coming from the foam pad that's in the box, so you might take it into consideration if anyone is buying it as a gift.

Well made, particularly like the handle and chrome end cap, a good length of bristle and lathers up great, so far very pleased and good value.

Owned this brush for nearly a year now, still performing strong. It is a soft brush so not really good if you like to scrub your lather in. However the brush does hold a respectable amount so can usually get a second pass without dipping in the bowl.Like other reviewers have mentioned there is a slightly unpleasant animal hair odour but it does fade away after a number of uses. It also did shed hair for a while for the first few weeks but that also subsided over time.Overall, a decent enough entry level hair brush for a pretty reasonable price, but it does need a few weeks to break in.

This is a good quality product. Bought as a gift for dad and he liked it.

Too large and sheds hair all the time

The media could not be loaded. First time I ordered this it didn't even arrive, so I had to get a refund and purchase it again.The brush has a nice weight to it, although the handle seems pretty big for what I was expecting. The middle faux agate part is nice, but you can see little clusters of fine bubbles which seems odd.The first time I used the brush, I left it to soak in a little cup for a bit before using it, and when I pulled it out I could see that a lot of grey dye or something had come off the bristles in the water.The brush did its job well enough, I guess. Wasn't great, but I suppose it was better than using my hands.I could smell the hair for the rest of the day on my face after using it. It wasn't strong enough to be unpleasant, but it was noticeable. And I don't particularly want to smell like a badger, but aftershave or anything remotely scented should be enough to overcome it.A small amount of hairs came out of the brush on the first use, but not enough to really be worrying.Changing the review to 1 star, after only a few months the brush is basically disintegrating every time I use it. A lot of hair comes out of the brush every single time I use it now. I end up with more hair on my face after using it than I had before the shave.Does not last, don't buy.

Good looking brush, nice to use, disappointing that it loses its bristles

Have been persevering for months now on basis it's normal for some shedding in first month or so. Gone on too long, hairs everywhere making it intolerable to actually enjoy the shave. Am returning as clearly faulty as this never happened to the badger brush I had for years before.
