MÜHLE VIVO Plum Wood Pure Badger Shaving Brush - Luxury Shave Brush for Men, Rich Lather

This isn't an everyday experience for me, but once in a while I like to treat myself to some lather before I shave with my wet/dry Norelco. (Sorry blade guys, but I learned my skin can't handle that method.) I did have a cheap, discount store beaver hair brush before this that was okay, but I decided to treat myself to something better. The Mühle Vivo was WAY better and does all that it claims. It has a soft touch and does an excellent job of retaining heat, working up a fine lather quickly and distributing it evenly across my face. The fine craftsmanship, materials, and design are obvious each time I pick it up. Sure, it was a bit of an extravagance. But my face was so very happy I splurged a bit on it!

Great brush. Lathers really well with both soap and cream. Great price great quality.

Beautiful brush. Love the weight and feel. Feels very luxurious

I like the weight feel and balance of this brush. The brush head is full and soft. My old brush handle feel apart being some sort of pressed particle board. This metal and resin feels stronger and hopefully more durable. There was a wet dog odor from the bristles as first bit with repeated shaves and soap it is going away. The real test will be if it lasts. I would expect to get several years out of this brush. If I don’t I would be disappointed but it seems like it will last.

The handle and the weight of the brush are high quality, and the bristles are firm, which helps make an excellent lather for your face

Before I had $10 "badger" brushes that either might have been fake, cheap badger, or not badger. I will never know. However for a lousy $42 I must say that this "expensive" shaving brush is well well well worth it. Beautiful to look at and hold. It is not as stiff a brush as horse or boar brushes. I have never but silvertip badger, but I think they would be too soft. This brush is the perfect combo of stiff and soft. It is stiff enough to gently exfoliate but soft and smooth enough to be a pleasure to use. It holds lather and water phenomenally. After a full thick lather shave, I can rinse off and shave two more times with new lather and comfort to spare. I have only had it one week but experienced NO hair shedding like cheaper brushes. Weight and look and handling is beautiful. Utility and function to create a great lather is outstanding. Feel on face is perfect. I am telling EVERYONE TO BUY THIS BEAUTIFUL AND FUNCTIONAL SHAVING BRUSH. thanks for a beautiful and useful product Herr Muhle!!!!

Went from a boars bristle brush to this one and was pleasantly surprised. The bristles are somewhat stiffer than my old brush, but they’ve softened up a bit since the purchase and work the lather well into my beard. Excellent product. Recommended.

Excellent brush but amazon sent me the wrong color and refused to credit me the difference
