New Semogue Boar Brush


I received my new Semogue 1305 boar brush in the mail today. It was one of three shaving things I bought with Fathers Day money.  It is hand-made in Portugal with a natural Portuguese Oak Wood handle painted green and ivory and top quality natural boar bristles. For my first shave with it, I used Proraso shaving soap, and it was a very good shave. Boar brushes lather differently than badger brushes. I will be using this brush exclusively over the next week and changing soaps while I am learning to lather with this acclaimed brush. I am looking forward to lathering with it this week.
