Premier shaving brush with synthetic bristles
Please note: the Premier Shaving Brush is only available with a black handle at this time.
Italian made shaving brush with revolutionary synthetic bristles. The first shaving brush development in over 250 years! These new bristles generate an amazing amount of lather, require less shaving cream, rinse easily and dry extremely fast - making this shaving brush more hygenic than animal hair and easier for travel. Generates a rich creamy lather, lifts the beard away from the face, making a smooth close shave easier. Cruelty free alternative. • Bristle Height: 60mm (~2-3/8") • Stand Height: 50mm (~2") • Bristle diameter: 50mm+ (~2")• Stand Diameter (at widest point): 32mm (~1-1/4") Our brush comes with Free stand and Free triple Shaving/Skin travel tube set (worth$11.99) that includes Shave Cream, Healthy Facial Wash & after shave Moisturizer. Each tube has between 20-30 uses.
We have always recommended hanging your shaving brush with the bristles facing down for reasons of hygiene and bristle longevity. That is why we have always provided a free, functional plastic stand with all our men-u shaving brushes.
Simon Shaw, Wahl UK Artistic Director said of the Premier shaving brush “The men-u Premier, synthetic bristle shaving brush is the best I have ever used! The bristles are easily cleaned and you use less product. I have always felt uncomfortable about using badger bristles.”
Good barbers use a quality shaving brush to facilitate the optimum shave. The bristles have to be a balance between resistance to raise the beard and softness to generate a fine, rich lather. These bristles are soft like badger (definitely NOT badger as they are synthetic!) but with resistance to raise the beard, making a closer cut easier.
After 3 years in development - this is a revolutionary, new type of shaving brush. Probably, the first significant change to the shaving brush in over 250 years and we believe it is simply the best shaving brush you have ever used!
What makes this shaving brush so great?
The magnified images in the additional image above (1200 – 3000x magnification) taken by Southampton University, Bio Medical Department feature badger bristles on the left and Premier synthetic on the right. Badger bristles are very much like human hair in that they have scales making for a rough surface, they tend to be damaged and often hollow.
This means that approximately 50% of the shaving cream used just penetrates and coats the bristles but never makes it to your face. It also means that not all of the shaving cream is rinsed out after use. This is the reason why these bristles suffer from product build-up and need to be cleaned out, as well as using approximately twice the amount of shaving cream!
- The synthetic bristles are non-absorbent, so they need less shaving cream and create a richer lather.
- Add a little more water to the bristles after shaving and you will probably have enough lather for a second, closer shave.
- Easier to clean the bristles and keep them clean.
- Using the stand helps promote the longevity of the bristles and is best hygienically.

Use with men-u ultra concentrate shave cream for a completely new generation of shave. If you know of a better shaving combination, let us know.
A good, close shave provides a degree of skin exfoliation that a woman can only dream of! To do the best for your skin, after shaving and rinsing use men-u healthy facial wash, rinse and pat dry with a clean towel. Then apply men-u facial moisturizer lift to complete the facial experience.
Shaving can remove up to two layers of skin. There is no other regular activity that does this, which is why it is so important to use a good quality moisturizer designed specifically for men.
The Premier Shaving Brush may also be purchased in a gift set/travel kit
