Product Review

This fine quality brush comes from PROGRESS (VULFIX) LTD, located on the historic Isle of Man, in the Irish Sea, a self governing Crown dependency. Made using traditional and time honored processes; hand selection of only the finest quality boar bristle and badger hair, individually weighed, shaped and hand knotted. Badger hair varies in quality from the FINEST WHITE/SILVER TIPPED "SUPER BADGER", to the slightly darker brown tipped hair and the blackish color, slightly coarser hair. Pure badger brushes are soft and build and hold a lather better than any other.

As far as the brush itself, for the price, it's fantastic. The weight of the brush feels great in my hand; it's very heavy considering the size. I also like the fact that this badger brush comes in a chrome finish, it a fusion of the old and new worlds. The badger hairs won't come off strand by strand like some other lesser made brushes as you apply your soap. All in all, I cannot find a single flaw with this brush.

For the other reviewer who stated, "little course on my face..." All brushes, just like everything else, have to go through a breaking in process, Don't worry, it will get softer with use and time.

Very good value for the price. The bristles are long and the brush has a nice,hefty feel to it. It does require a large drip stand and will not fit in the smaller,average stand. No stand came with the brush,but I alreadt had my own large stand. Brushes like this easily cost 2 or 3 times more.Check the other Amazon listings. Looking for a hefty, inexpensive, long lasting badger brush-you found it.

This is my first shaving brush, so I don't really know that I am qualified to say anything. I can tell you that not only am I enjoying the experience of a warm brush on my face to prep my whiskers before shaving, but I'm getting a better shave than I ever got with pro-glide for far less money! I am still learning how to shave and I am also having fun trying the many different blades that are out there. This is also necessary, because I am finding that the most expensive blade doesn't always get you the best results! This depends on your skin type, shaving methods and skill, shaving brush, shaving cream and of course the razor itself.

The brush itself is made of the best materials I understand and I had a very hard time finding a 'badger hair' brush with a 'chrome handle' to boot for such a low price. I can tell you that it makes my face feel great and I am also noticing that my facial skin has never looked or felt better. I cannot tell you the reason why, but it could be...Read more
