Let’s talk about the most luxurious hair type “Silvertip” hairs. As the name suggests, these bristles have very soft silvery tips. Only around the 5-10 % of the hairs coming from the badger’s body are silvertip hairs, coming from the neck (jowl) area.
Their water holding capacity is best among Silvertip Badger Hair Brush. Due to their fine and delicate structure, more bristles are required for the same size knot (for example, compared to a best badger brush). Since they are much scarcer, they are expensive. Silvertip brushes are made with hand selected bristles, never trimmed, has much more hairs at the same knot size and these make them the most expensive shaving brush type. Denser knots mean better water and lather absorption, these brushes create very rich lather in no time and provide a wonderful luxurious feel on face with their super soft tips. They don’t effectively massage the skin as other bristle types since they are very soft, which poses the risk of breakage of the bristles if used roughly to get a massaging feel in the wrong hands. In short, they require care and experience. For this reason, even though they are the most expensive brushes, they may not be the best choice for every user. We recommend silvertip shaving brushes to experienced users. Silvertip Badger Hair Brush
