Collection: Shaving Brushes

Handmade shaving brushes with hand-turned timber handles — teak, olive wood and rare Tasmanian Huon pine — or clean matte-black polymer. Badger or synthetic, all made by hand in Moss Vale, NSW. Every brush ships with a Wave stand included, and free shipping over $99.

The range runs from $69 to $500. It starts with the Essentials badger and the vegan Synthetic at $69 — the right place to begin wet shaving. The Premium badger sits in the middle from $139. At the top is the Luxury Silver Tip Badger, $249 to $500 — the finest grade of badger made, turned onto hand-picked Huon pine, olive wood or teak. It is the most expensive brush we make, and cared for simply it gives a decade or more of daily shaves from the one knot.

Shaving Brushes

Badger or Synthetic?

Badger holds more water and heat than any synthetic fibre, builds a richer lather, and has the classic feel wet shavers chase. It improves with use and needs a rinse and hang-dry between shaves. Synthetic dries in hours instead of days, needs no break-in, suits sensitive skin and travel, and is fully vegan — the good modern fibres get surprisingly close to badger at half the upkeep.

LuxurySilver-tip badgerFrom $249The softest grade there is — enthusiasts and serious gifts

No two timber handles are alike — each is turned, sanded and finished one at a time. And the included stand isn't a freebie, it's function: bristles hang downward so water drains out of the knot, which is how a brush lasts a decade instead of two years.

Quick Answers

Looking for a men's shaving brush?

All four ranges make an ideal men's shaving brush — built for a close daily shave, on handles sized for a proper grip. They lather just as well for anyone shaving legs, head or anywhere else; a good brush doesn't care who's holding it.

How long does a shaving brush last?

A quality badger brush, dried bristles-down on its stand, lasts 10–15 years. The number one brush killer is storing it bristles-up while wet. Full routine in the badger brush care guide.

Sensitive skin — badger or synthetic?

Either works: synthetic for its softer, springier feel from day one, or Premium badger for finer tips with the traditional water-holding. Avoid coarser natural-grade badger if your skin reacts easily.

Do women use shaving brushes?

Absolutely. A brush builds the same protective lather for legs and underarms as it does for faces — less irritation, fewer ingrown hairs. Lather doesn't care about gender.
