Macassar Ebony Shaving Brush - High Mountain White

Founded in 1808, Maison Plisson invented the shaving brush. This model is one of its most refined expressions: a precious wood with a spectacular grain, filled with the rarest grade of hair.

Macassar ebony. Dark brown to almost black, streaked with lighter veins, it is a dense wood with a strikingly graphic grain. Shaped, polished and varnished, it reveals all its depth. Each handle has its own pattern.

High Mountain White. Selected for its extreme softness and suppleness, it whips soap or cream into a rich, creamy lather and gently prepares the beard. It is the choice for sensitive skin.

Choosing your size. The model comes in several sizes, from the most compact to the most generous. Size 12 is the reference for a daily face shave; the other sizes suit every face and every use.

Handmade in our workshops in France.

For an optimal shave, thoroughly wet the shaving brush with warm water, ideally after a shower when warmth and moisture have helped soften the beard hair and prepare the skin.

Work your shaving soap or cream into a rich, creamy lather using circular motions.

Apply the lather evenly to damp skin using circular motions. The shaving brush helps lift the beard hair, distribute the lather evenly and gently prepare the skin for shaving.

After each use, rinse the shaving brush knot thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining soap or shaving cream. Avoid excessively hot water, which may affect the qualities of the natural hair.

Gently shake off excess water without pulling on the hair, then lightly dry the knot on a bath towel. Place the shaving brush on a suitable stand with the knot facing downwards to encourage proper drying and preserve its qualities over time.

As wood is a natural material, avoid leaving the handle immersed in water or in an excessively damp environment in order to preserve its finish and qualities over time.

The choice of shaving soap is also important: an excessively acidic pH can weaken the hair and lead to premature shedding. Choose a soap or cream suitable for traditional wet shaving to help preserve the qualities of the knot over time.

Suitable for all skin types, particularly sensitive skin seeking an exceptionally soft and flexible natural shaving brush.
