Simpsons Wee Scot Best Badger Hair Shaving Brush With Imitation Ivory Handle

I travel a lot. It's nice to have a decent shave when you wake up in some random hotel. So I just keep two travel wash kits ready to go, so I can just throw them in a bag. I have the Simpsons major Beeching which has a cunning reverse thread to protect the brush in its own case, and a German brushed metal travel brush that looks like a shotgun barrel that screws together for travel with only one click. Both of these are stupidly expensive £80 plus.I prefer this little guy for a third of the cost. Biggest issue with travel brushes is leaving them wet. This one is so much smaller if you dry it carefully and find a suitable case - an empty roll of boots dental floss fits it perfectly - there is much less moisture. It's so much smaller it's much easier to pack. It's tiny. I was hugely surprised that it creates plenty of foam for me.The major Beeching is great but almost three times the size. Takes 3x longer to dry. The German one is great too, but sometimes attracts unwanted attention at airport security X-ray machines.If you're just looking for one travel shaving brush :) get this one...

Very small and light which is what I was after. It also works surprisingly well. Although it arrives "sterilised and ready to use", mine seemed to have come from the smelliest end of the smelliest badger available. The smell dies off a little after five or six thorough washes, and hopefully will continue to. Recommended.

After 45 years, best shaving brush I’ve ever had. Created the perfect lather for my Feather razor.

I've been looking for a high quality badger hair shaving brush, but I wanted it to be small; I grow a beard and only need to shave my neck line, so it made no sense to buy a huge fluffy brush, and I'm glad to say this brush ticked all the boxes. It's creates a rich lather easily and a surprising amount of said lather, when you consider the size of this thing.The only thing that is unfortunate was the red box it came with, which was stained (see added photo), so it might be a problem if you want to give it as a gift. It didn't matter to me, so that's why I'm keeping the 5 star ratings.I received the parcel in 2 days through UPS, and was pleased with their service, as usual.

An excellent little shaving brush. The lather that can be produced with this brush is astonishing given the tiny size of the brush.

I bought this as a travel brush but it's so good it has become my everyday shaving brush. Although it is indeed "wee", I find it perfect for my smallish hands. The badger bristles have he perfect balance of stiffness and sloppiness when loaded and can carry enough soap or cream for a three-pass shave. The brush has not shed a single hair in a month of almost daily use. I rigged a travel case from an all Steradent tablet tube cut down do size. It does the job perfectly. Well worth the price.

This brush fits the description given to it - a "wee" brush indeed. Too small for my huge face though, so I gave it three stars only. I was looking for a decent travel brush and many had recommended this one to me. But with no protective case or travel tube, I wouldn't feel comfortable with this freely bouncing around in my wash bag. My advice is to spend a bit more on a turnback or one with a tube and not worry about whether it will arrive at your destination without any bristles!

excellent wee brush. Use it for every shave.
