Shaving Character

Reviewers on Italian Barber describe a soft knot that still picks up soap well, lathers quickly and dries fast; one found it a little stiff for the first few shaves. The 24mm knot and 57mm loft give a standard size that works for face lathering or in a bowl, with hard soaps or creams. If you would rather have a British-made synthetic, the Simpsons Trafalgar T2 Synthetic Fibre Shaving Brush is the step up.

Use & Care

Wet the knot under warm water before loading; there is no need for a long soak. After shaving, rinse out all the lather, gently squeeze out the water and shake the brush. Leave it to dry in the open air rather than in a closed cabinet.
