Listing of the different hair types at Shavemac

Every practice has its perfect tool, so does the shave. In practice, boar bristles, hog´s bristles and badger bristles are the common hair for a shaving brush. Our shaving brushes are made from badger hair because it has the best and most pleasant characteristics. Badger hair is very soft, flexible and gives a very comfortable feel on the skin. It is able to retain plenty of water and remains firm and flexible when wet. In addition, badger hair shaving brushes create, in combination with a good shaving soap, an outstandingly creamy and dense lather. Shavemac uses only the best quality of pure badger hair. The hair of our shaving brush has always its natural tips, which - still intact -add to a longer durability. The hair tips are not trimmed.

We also offer shaving brushes with very high quality, synthetic bristles. These offer a good, cheaper and vegan alternative to natural badger hair. They are also pleasant on the skin, produce a rich foam and are extremely durable.

2-Band Badger Hair In contrast to the usually 3-band hair, consisting of light-dark-light sections, the 2-band shaving brush has only silver shimmering tips and a long dark section down to the handle. To achieve this effect, you need specially long badger hair as only these do have the appropriate long sections. These long hair are in addition very dense and firm creating a uniquely sturdy shaving brush. As most of the badger hair parts are lost - the end of the badger hair and not the tip is trimmed to its final length - more weight in hair is needed.Therefore this brush is more expensive. Furthermore, these long hair are very rare and are not always available. There are Silvertip 2-Band and Silvertip D01 2-Band.
	Silvertip 2-Band The Silvertip 2-Band is very gentle, but also has a great strength. The noticeably high quality and the high durability make the Silvertip 2 band so special.
