At the end of the day it is only a shaving brush no matter the cost and as such is a consumable. Very few survive 40+ years of continuous everyday use not needing re knotting or complete replacement. A reasonable amount of care will help to prolong the life of the brush. Personally, reasonable care is a good rinse, a quick shake or two and put away to dry thoroughly.

I have heard of people using tape at the base of the knot to stiffen the bristles but that would allow/hide the buildup of soap so I don't think that is a good idea. Originally Posted by Hirlau

I can categorically say that I do not tape my brushes when I wash them. However when ultrasonically cleaning them maybe it could be beneficial. Originally Posted by Hirlau
