How to Care for Your Shaving Brush & Razor

Shaving brushes should always be rinsed thoroughly after use. Gently squeeze out excess water and let them dry bristle-side down to prevent water from seeping into the handle. For natural fibers like badger or boar, avoid boiling water or harsh soaps, which can damage the hair.

Razors, especially safety razors, should be rinsed after every pass to prevent buildup. At the end of your shave, disassemble the razor, rinse each part, and dry with a soft towel. Store in a dry area to avoid corrosion.

Deep cleaning once a month with mild dish soap removes soap scum and mineral deposits. For safety razors, replace blades regularly to ensure smooth, irritation-free shaves.

Proper care not only extends the life of your tools but also improves performance. A clean brush builds lather more effectively, and a well-maintained razor glides more comfortably.

Invest a little time in care and enjoy the reward of consistent, high-quality shaves for years to come. Explore our razors and brushes to upgrade your kit.
