Wahl Traditional Barbers Boar Bristle Shave Brush

The bristle taken from boars are stiffer than badger hair and are at first very coarse

The courser texture of the bristles makes it very useful for lathering soaps well because of its ability to agitate the surface of the soap very easily.

Over time the tips of the bristles will soften and feel a bit more broken in, but will never be as soft on the face as badger hair.
