How do I clean my Shaving Brush? Should I clean the brush every day after shaving? Can I use boiling water to clean my Shaving Brush? Should I soak the Shaving Brush after shaving? Is it necessary to buy a holder for my Shaving Brush?

We get a lot of questions every day about the maintenance and cleaning of Shaving Brushes. That's why we've created this guide to help you take the best possible care of your Shaving Brush in the future.

A Shaving Brush is made to last for many years. However, it requires you to treat it with care - cleaning and sanitizing it. Fortunately, it's not that difficult to treat the brush so that it retains its shape, function and durability for as long as possible. Just read along here...

1. Rinse the Shaving Brush
Rinse the brush in lukewarm water to rinse all soap residue from the bristles.
Note: The water must be a maximum of 45 degrees Celsius. It is important that you never use boiling water as it destroys both the quality of the hair and the Lime that holds the brush together

2. Squeeze the brush
Gently squeeze the brush so that excess water squeezes out (do not pull). Then give the brush a few flicks with your wrist into the sink or shower. Now the bristles are only damp

3. Put it in a holder
Place the brush in your holder and let it air dry

Note! Avoid putting the wet Shaving Brush in a closed cabinet as this prevents it from getting rid of the moisture.

To remove limescale from the brush, you can occasionally (or as needed) place the brush with bristles in a mild vinegar solution (1:10) and leave it for a few minutes.

Rinse the brush under running water and wash the bristles with a mild shampoo. Finally, rinse the brush, squeeze it gently and place it air-dry in your holder.

Your brush is now clean. For the first few shaves, it may smell a little like vinegar, but this will quickly disappear.
