Description
Omega "Syntex" synthetic nylon bristle shaving brush with silver hard plastic rigged handle. Bristles are in a black plastic inset. While nylon bristles don't hold water and make as rich of a lather as natural bristles, it is a good entry level place to start for those that prefer a vegan alternative. Bristles are manufactured for softness and performance. Omega brand imported from Italy.

~ Total brush height from base to top of bristle tips: 4 1/16"
~ Grip area (smallest diameter on the handle): 33mm

Brush stand/holders: The 29mm rounded fork works best to insert the brush upside down at the black plastic area where the bristles go into the handle.
A shaving brush creates lather by using a shaving soap or cream and is warm to the skin as it raises the hair for shaving. In addition, it gently massages the face and improves skin circulation. It is kind, cleansing and mildly exfoliating yet gentle enough for sensitive skin. Check out our Reference Desk for more information.
