Plisson 1808

Description

Beautiful shaving brush with a bulb-shaped handle made in Black Beech wooD, Plisson’s new design material. Finished with a satin varnish. The very fine grain of the wood combined with Plisson ‘s new logo create a unique piece of great elegance. This brush is filled with pure Russian grey badger hair - the intermediate grade between pure black and pure European gray bristles. It serves perfectly for hard and medium hard beards. The traditionally shaped handle provides a good grip and its standard size, 12, is optimal for daily use. You can complete this brush with a matching razor, available separately. As all Plisson’s products, this brush is made by hand in France.

Instructions for use

The best moment to shave is in the morning, just after a shower and before breakfast: your hair, consisting mainly of keratin, are softer and easier to cut, and the skin of your face less fragile. Prepare your shaving foam by loading the brush with soap or shaving cream. Use of products called " shaving preparation " is twofold: it boosts hydration of the hair by removing its fat layer (sebum) and secondly, protects your skin from the aggression of the blade.

1/ With shaving soap: Your face is beforehand wet (ideally after a shower), quickly place your brush under warm water and lather the soap inside the bowl (without crushing the hair) until obtaining a thick and creamy lather. Apply it to your face in circular motions for a minute or two, the time to soften and straighten enough the hair from your beard.

2/ With shaving cream: Once your face prepared and the shaving brush moistened with warm water, put a small amount of cream on top of the brush and lather the face for one to two minutes as described above. Some users prefer to file directly a trace of cream on each cheek with the tube, then they emulsify it with the brush.

Maintenance

To maintain the quality of your shaving brush for many years, we recommend rinsing it well after each use to remove all traces of cream or soap and to drain it. Then rub it gently on a towel before putting it upside down on a suitable stand.
