How to Reduce Badger Brush Smell

For most people, this may seem a bit odd, especially because they have not experienced such smell. For others, they get this repugnant smell after buying a new badger brush. Yes, it is so much possible to perceive smells on some new badger brushes. Generally most people tend to forget that a badger brush is gotten from the hairs of a badger. Undoubtedly, badger brushes make good shaving lather but there are still parts of an animal.

To reduce this smell, manufacturers put the hairs through a long process of sterilization between knotting them together in a handle. Sometimes these processes do not entirely remove the smell. This is why it's advisable to buy badger brushes from brands that take quality seriously. A good example is the newly released Vikings Blade badger brush.


If you happen to have a badger brush that smells, just prepare warm water with a tablespoon of vinegar solution. Immerse the smelly badger brush into this solution for about a minute or two. Remove brush and ensure proper rinse with water. Keep in a cool place to dry. This should reduce the smell the next time you want to use the brush.
