 The importance of shaving preparation (also emphasized by me) is often highlighted. In the context of traditional shaving, it is definitely the prerequisite for a successful shave. This allows you to fully exploit the potential of your razor or razor. Otherwise, irritated skin, razor burn, or even small cuts are the inevitable result. To make preparation successful, a high-quality shaving soap or cream, and especially the shaving brush, are essential – depending on your taste, possibly your most beautiful accessory.

Shaving brushes are available in many shapes and materials. The handle is usually made of plastic, wood, or metal. A wooden-handled shaving brush should be varnished so that it does not swell due to regular cleaning with water. The brush hair is traditionally made from animal hair, most commonly badger hair. But boar bristles and horsehair are also used. The question of vegan shaving brush alternatives has now also been answered: synthetic fibers. But how do these compare to their "animal" competitors?

Comparison: Animal Hair or Synthetic Fibers?

Shaving brushes have been a proven tool in the shaving sector in Europe for over 250 years. "From the advent of self-shaving in the 19th to the mid-20th century, foaming shaving soap or cream with a shaving brush was an integral part of male wet shaving." 1

Due to the increasing popularity of cartridge razors and canned shaving foam, traditional shaving has somewhat faded into obscurity. For several years now, shaving with a safety razor or straight razor has been regaining popularity. Anyone exploring the topic of "traditional shaving" will quickly realize that choosing the right shaving brush is an important step towards achieving the perfect shave. The type of bristles used in shaving brushes is the most important component that you should be clear about before making a purchase.

Enjoy reading exciting topics:

As mentioned earlier, shaving brushes are most commonly made from badger hair and synthetic fibers nowadays. But boar bristles and horsehair are also occasionally used (sometimes more commonly in other parts of the world). However, compared to badger hair and synthetic fibers, they have the decisive disadvantage of storing less water. Shaving brushes with boar bristles are the cheapest but also the toughest. They can more easily irritate sensitive skin. Shaving brushes made from horsehair are hardly widespread in Germany and are more in demand in Muslim-dominated countries. Horsehair is softer than boar bristles and cheaper than badger hair.

The choice of the shaving brush will ultimately depend on your individual preferences. But if you don't want to sacrifice animal welfare, you should prefer synthetic fibers. Despite their short history, they have become so good that there is virtually no difference to "real" animal hair. The shaving brush made from synthetic fibers stores water as well as that made from animal hair. You can then spread the foam or shaving cream over your face in the same way as with an animal hair brush. The price is also often lower, and vegans do not have to accept any disadvantages due to the synthetic shaving brush.

Conclusion

As with every purchase decision, the choice between a shaving brush made from animal hair or synthetic fibers ultimately depends on individual preferences and priorities. The products of traditional wet shaving, which were almost forgotten, are experiencing a revival today. This is not least due to the internet. If you decide to opt for a synthetic shaving brush, you will save the lives of animals. But also, you won't have to make any compromises in terms of quality. Of course, the experience is different for every man. So, do you already have experience with shaving brushes?

Also ich habe bislang einen Dachshaarpinsel benützt. Der ist nun auch in die Jahre gekommen. Aber einen deutlichen Unterschied konnte ich feststellen:
Der Kunsthaarpinsel hat eine deutlich höhere Kapillarwirkung. Es saugt Flüssigkeit und leider die Seife auf und gibt sich nicht mehr so gut ab. Wenn ich den Pinsel nach der Rasur auswringe habe ich mehr Rasierschaum im Pinsel als auf der Haut.
Dafür haart er nicht, ist zwar straff aber nicht unangenehm hart.
Unter Tierwohl-Gesichtspunkten verwende ich gerne das Kunsthaar. Allerding sollte man auch das “Mikroplastik”-Problem nicht außer Acht lassen. Hat halt alles seine 2 Seiten.

Ich bin schockiert. Das man Dachse tötet um Haare daraus zu gewinnen. Never ever Kauf Ich mir so einen Rasierpinsel
