Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have been shaving for over 40 years. That's a long time and a lot of shaves! I started out many years ago with a shaving mug, a cake of soap and a double edge razor. Over the years, I dabbled with electric razors, but I always felt that the shave was not as close as with a razor with an actual blade. For many years now, I have used cartridge razors. They are handy, work well with shaving creams available in just about all department/grocery stores, and rarely produce nicks or cuts... if you change cartridges relatively regularly. For me, that is at least once each week to week and a half. Cartridges are EXPENSIVE!!!
I recently switched back to double edge razor shaving. The blades are MUCH less expensive, and I have found that the shave is also much closer... although you have to slow down and make multiple passes instead of "slap - dap - done" that is possible with the cartridge razor system. I purchased the shaving brush to increase the luxury of the shave - a luxury that I can well afford with the elimination of the expense of the cartridges that I no longer have to fork $$$ out for. This particular brush is much nicer feeling and produces better lather than the brush I used many years ago. I attribute that to the badger bristles used in this brush instead of the boar bristles that my old brush used. My face is well hydrated with the lather produced with this brush (and a Crabtree & Evelyn shaving cream) and the razor glides smoothly and leaves a silky smooth aftermath.
I have been using the Edwin Jagger Best Badger shaving brush for 2 weeks now - and a single DE razor blade - and couldn't be happier. A very close shave, a luxurious lather, and a pleasant experience now that I have slowed down to actually enjoy the experience.
