SEMOGUE 1250 PURE BRISTLE SHAVING BRUSH PRODUCT The Semogue 1250 Pure Bristle Shaving brush is a great looking brush with classic styling. It features a classic sculpted Ash wood handle, common to many Semogue brushes, with a clear matt finish. The handle carries the unmistakable 'Excelsior' badge and is topped with a 'silver' collar which holds the renowned Semogue densely filled Pure Boar Bristle loft. A great looking brush with excellent performance. Hand Made in Portugal. (NB. The handle is made of a natural material and there will be variations in the grain to the images shown) HOW TO USE The brush bristles should be wet (not soaking) before use. Load the loft with soap or cream and apply to the areas to be shaved, using a strong circular motion. This softens the hairs and also raises them ready for shaving. We strongly recommend the following aftercare for your brush; When finished always rinse the brush under hot water (especially at the base of the bristles) to remove any remaining soap residue which can result in damage to the bristle and cause early shedding of the loft. The brush should then be stored loft facing down to dry. This can be achieved by using a shaving brush stand and prevents the bristles rotting at the base due to moisture. RECOMMENDED FOR Both shaving creams and shaving soaps and all skin types. GROOMING TIP Whilst taking a shower soak your shaving brush in hot water. When you are finished your shower, both your stubble and brush will be ready for a shave   A. OVERALL HEIGHT 112MM B. LOFT HEIGHT 55MM C. BASE HEIGHT 57MM D. LOFT WIDTH  47MM E.
