Simple cleaning: Cleaning your brushes in between uses is crucial! Don’t let last shave’s soap be part of your current shave.

- Grab a glass or cup full of clean water and plunger the brush until the water runs clear. This will remove excess soap and cut down on the amount of soap scum you may find.

- Allow your brush to completely dry before using it again.
