The classically stylish range of Traditional Barbers products from Wahl have been designed to take shaving from a chore to a luxurious and classy experience. Traditionally handmade for the professional barber, the product is designed to perform at the optimum level and captures the essence and heritage not only of the Wahl brand, but of the Traditional Barber Trade itself. The Boar Bristle Shave Brushes can feel quite coarse at first, but as you break the brush, the tips of the bristles will soften and feel more comfortable on the skin. The coarser texture of boar bristles will agitate the surface of the soap easily, making the Boar Bristle Brush very good for lathering soaps.
