Customer Rating:
|
The Vulfix VS/5 Pure Bristle Shaving Brush uses pure boar hair and a natural resin handle. This budget brush is popular among beginners and even works great as a travel brush. The boar bristle hairs are great for holding water and will give a rich and moist lather. It is completely handmade in the UK. Brush dimensions are approximate.
Total Height: 102mm
Handle Height: 53mm
Bristle Knot: 22mm
We recommend using the 30 Degree S1 Shaving Stand or 30 Degree S3 Shaving Stand or 30 Degree S5 Shaving Stand to store this brush.

This was my first shaving brush, and from the reviews, I expected it to be like rubbing my face with needles. But, I thought, that's what I get for being cheap. I have been using it every other day for a month now and I am pleasantly surprised.
I recommend soaking in hot water before making your lather, leaving it in while you shower to really load the brush and soften the bristles somewhat. The brush spreads nice and wide and the slightly stiffer bristles manage to work the lather around the hair and get that nice polka-dot pattern that indicates the hair is in the shaving cream, not under it. It's not pure or silver tipped badger hair, but it also isn't terrible and would make a fine budget starter brush or travel brush.
