The finest natural hair for handcrafted shaving brushes. Its special features are the shimmering silver colour and a black band running though the hair. It is used to make durable, high-quality unique pieces - and products that make the wet shave the best time-out imaginable. The fine, conically tapering hairs possess the ability to retain a large amount of water and produce a dense, creamy lather. 

The Material - Porcelain

HOW TO USE A GILLETTE RAZOR BLADE?

Prepare your skin for the shave: Always shave during or after a hot shower for a flawless traditional wet shave. Apply foam to your skin to soften your skin and prepare your beards for shaving. The application of shaving foam with a shaving brush helps to remove the dead layer on the skin, while removing the hairs and preparing it for a comfortable shave. Also, if possible, leaving the foam on your skin for at least 1-2 minutes will allow the beards to soften more and shave easier.

Check the razor blade: Check the lubricant bands on the tip of your Gillette razor blade, they should not be worn, there should be no clogs between the razors. If the Gillette razor feels blunt while shaving, you should change your head. The most common mistake that causes skin irritation is shaving with blunt razors.

Start shaving: Shave with gentle touches without pressing the blade. You should rinse your Gillette razor frequently to avoid clogging between the razors. Always take the first act in the direction of the beard growth. In the second act, you can shave at right angles to the direction of beard growth or against the direction of beard growth.

Rinse and moisturize: After shaving, rinse your skin with cold water, apply an aftershave balm or lotion to moisturize, nourish and refresh.
