Wee Scot Best Badger Shave Brush 70mm shave brush by Simpson

I travel a fair bit and this brush has been with me on every trip since I’ve gotten it. It’s extremely small — like completely conceal it in your fist small — so if that’s not large enough for your taste, look for something else. Look at the product dimensions before making any purchase.I personally don’t have issue with the size. It makes it much easier to store and throw into a toiletry case, and the badger hair absorbs plenty of water and lathers great. It’ll take more strokes to cover as much ground as say, a 26mm brush, but considering how much the hairs splay on this, the difference isn’t much. If anything, I make way less of a mess with this and don’t end up with lather on my earlobes.There’s decent backbone but it does splay enough to cover a reasonably wide area. The hairs are a tad bit scratchier than a nice silvertip brush (I’m comparing to ones that run upwards of $100), but it’s leagues ahead of the lower quality badger hair brushes (~$30) in the same price range. This is much softer and holds much more water. There was a bit of a badger smell when it arrived, but that went away after a shave or two.Considering the tiny size alone, late $30 range is a lot to put down, BUT because of the nice quality and portability, I find this to be a reasonable purchase. Between this brush and a regular-sized best badger of the same price, I’m more likely to use this one on a daily basis.Bottom line: Get this if you like the idea of a quality, tiny travel brush.

This brush is amazing! I originally bought a cheap $12 badger brush/stand combo off amazon and thought it was terrible, I was considering not using a badger brush altogether after that. I came across this brush and saw good reviews and I liked how it was smaller, as I only shave my neck and cheek to keep a clean beard line. It works perfect for that, regular size brushs would have been way too big. With that said, if I ever started shaving my entire face, this would still be my go to badger brush. It whips up beautifully and is plenty big enough to do your whole face, not sure why you would need anything bigger to be honest. The more I use it, the better it performs. I lost a few hairs on the first 2-3 uses but after that it's been flawless. This would be the first brush I recommend to anyone who is a first timer to wet shaving, it's well worth the price! One thing to note, do not expect this to fit in the standard badger brush stands, it will be too small. That's okay for me as I don't want a stand sitting on my counter. I clean and dry my DE razor when done, put it in a $13 leather wrap/case I got on Amazin - rinse my badger brush, dry it by brushing it over a dry towel and then store out of sight. I was resistant to switching to DE shaving and a Badger Brush but I will NEVER go back! My neck no longer has ingrowns or any irritation.

I bought the wee scot as a travel brush since I travel a lot for work, and client visits require I be presentable. However, this brush has also become the only one I use whether at home or on the road.The bristles have just the right feel and have lathered anything I've thrown at it, including hotel facial bar soap when I left my usual puck at home one time. I normally do a 3-pass shave, and the wee scot can just barely hold enough product for 3 passes, although I usually do a minor recharge after the second pass. I face lather, but if you use a bowl or scuttle even that shouldn't be an issue.Despite being a little tight on how much product it holds, I find the smaller size perfect for applying lather exactly where I want it. Particularly the upper lip and around my side burns, and honestly, I don't understand why typical shaving brushes are so much larger now that I've used this one. Despite having to recharge the brush a little bit, a lot less product seems to go to waste.On the travel side, the small brush dries out extremely quick, and it fits quite nicely into a prescription bottle with airholes drilled. No worries about a wet bag or mildew build up.All in all well worth the money and a top notch brush.

I upgraded to this from a Omega Bambino which is made with very stiff hairs, which is absolutely love.I wish more shave brushes were this small. Its perfect for who don't have that much facial hair.photos:Truefitt&Hill is made by Simpsons and is The chubby size 2 I think.The white brush is the Wee Scotpros:-uses less soap-I feel it lathers faster than larger brushes-the size allows me to be more precise-made for people with less facial hair.cons:-not for people with full thick beards-too expensive at regular price

After 45 years, best shaving brush I’ve ever had. Created the perfect lather for my Feather razor.

I bought this as a travel brush but it's so good it has become my everyday shaving brush. Although it is indeed "wee", I find it perfect for my smallish hands. The badger bristles have he perfect balance of stiffness and sloppiness when loaded and can carry enough soap or cream for a three-pass shave. The brush has not shed a single hair in a month of almost daily use. I rigged a travel case from an all Steradent tablet tube cut down do size. It does the job perfectly. Well worth the price.

excellent wee brush. Use it for every shave.

This brush may be small, but it punches well above its weight. Very pleased, indeed.
