Thread: My Brushes loss it hair

In all types of my brush loss it 4 - 3 hair in each daily shaving ? Is that normal ? I keep it my brush ( daily used ) in bathroom it's small but I leave it open , and the others brush (unused) i keep it in my room for a while , If I am use a wrong way give me your advice .

Are you storing your brushes with the hairs pointing up, or down? If you store them standing on their base (hair pointing up) I would think the water could eventually work to loosen some of the hairs from the knot. I made a quick and dirty little brush hanger that I've been using for about 2 years out of a clothes hanger. It's not pretty, but I've not seen a single hair come out of my brush over those 2 years.

after shaving leave it in brush stand until second day or if I am not used it for a next shaving I leave it at least 24 hours

What brush is it? My Frank Shaving badger brush shed a few hairs the first week or two and now it sheds a hair once every couple weeks. My first Omega Boar brush sheds hairs like a dead monkey. 1-2 per shave (and it's stored in a brush holder). My Omega 10048 ("The Professional") hasn't shed a single hair in it's 4 months of use.

Now I am using Simpsons chubby 1 with soap same problem with chubby 3 ( New , I shaved just 2-3 times only ) also my Vulfix 2236 in super , and all my omega boar loss it hair more than 3 hair per shaving

The Simpsons should have good knots. Are you getting the water super hot or using lots of pressure while lathering? The heat can degrade the glue and a lot of pressure can break hairs.
