OMEGA 81230 100% PURE BRISTLE (WITH BADGER EFFECT) SHAVING BRUSH PRODUCT The Omega 81230 pure bristle shaving brush is a variation on the classic no. 48 professional shaving brush. The handle is of a similar profile but comes in satin chrome and has a distinctive rib around the base with the OMEGA logo in contrasting tones. The ergonomic design of the handle allows the brush to be manipulated with ease and maximises the high performance Omega 100% hog bristle with badger effect loft. This brush is also supplied with its own black plastic stand. A great looking brush with a uniquely styled handle. Another great performer, also available in Gold and Polished Chrome. Made in Italy.  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 after care 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 When applying a shaving lather to your skin always use strong circular movements to help soften and raise the hairs and prepare the skin for shaving. DIMENSIONS A.
