About Simpson Shaving Brushes
Simpson Shaving Brushes
Simpson shaving brushes include classic Simpsons badger brush models, Simpson synthetic brush models such as Sovereign, and Alexander Simpson brushes. The best choice depends on fibre type, knot size, handle shape and how much backbone you want when building lather.
Badger Grades and Synthetic Fibre
Simpson Pure Badger gives a firmer traditional feel, Best Badger is the balanced daily grade for many wet shavers, and Super/Silvertip Badger is the softer premium natural-hair option. Trafalgar, Sovereign and Platinum synthetic brushes use synthetic fibre, dry quickly and need no break-in period.
Key Simpson Models
The Simpson Duke, Classic, Special and Colonel X2L are practical daily-use badger brushes. The Chubby is denser and fuller, while the Trafalgar is a straightforward synthetic choice.
Complete the Setup
Pair a Simpson brush with a suitable shaving soap, shaving cream or shaving bowl. For drying and storage, check compatibility before choosing a Simpson drip stand or travel tube.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Simpson Pure, Best and Super Badger?
Pure is usually firmer, Best balances softness and backbone, and Super/Silvertip Badger is the softer premium natural-hair grade. Knot size and density also affect the feel.
Are Simpson synthetic brushes good for daily shaving?
Yes. A Simpson synthetic brush such as Trafalgar or Sovereign dries quickly, feels consistent from the first use and is easy to maintain. They are practical for travel and daily shaving.
Do Simpson badger brushes need breaking in?
They normally need very little break-in compared with boar brushes. A natural badger brush may settle with use, but it should be ready to lather from the first shave.
Let customers speak for us
from 389 reviewsThis brush (T3) is amazing and fantastic value for money. Well made and made to last. Robust when lathering up with no need to pre soak before use. Highly recommended.
Having just got back into wet shaving, I thought I would try the T3 Trafalgar & Henson AL13++. I've just used both of them and they are fantastic. The T3 is great for lathering and no need to pre soak. The Henson is just something else. If you are new to wet shaving, go for this, I didn’t have any nicks but a really close shave (3 passes). Don’t be put off as it is very lightweight, the blade will do the work and you will learn how much pressure you need to apply after a couple of uses. Using these going forward will be an absolute pleasure. Highly recommended, both of them.
Taylor of Old Bond Street is a wonderful shaving cream and I highly recommend to all.
Simpson Bay Rum shaving cream has got a very delicate but elegant scent, not too overpowering but very pleasant throughout the shave. The cream lathers easily and it's very slick, the razor will glide effortlessly. Post shave is very good, my skin was left soft and elastic even before applying the post shave balm. Definitely recommended!
After several years my old razor stopped aligning the blade correctly. This razor is a much better design, easier to clean, and a very smooth shave.
I have the Muhle R89 standard, however I wanted I wanted to improve on it for two main reasons, a longer handle and having a two rather than three piece head, whilst retaining the R89 head. The R89 'twist' was just what I needed and it most definitely works for.
Highly recommended well done male grooming for rapid dispatch
salter shaving creams never dissapoint, performance is great and aftershave feel fantastic.
the vetiver fragrance is a very dark earthy fragrance if you like vetiver this is for you
cannot fault this cream only wish they did matching splashes or balms
I’ve used these with the Henson AL13 and they seem to work very well! I suspect I may never have to buy any more razor blades for the rest of my life…!
I've used a few regular safety razors before, but I've never had a shave this smooth and clean. I finally tried this bad boy with an open comb, and it has been a total game-changer! Yes, you need a good technique, but the results are absolutely remarkable.
It also has excellent moisturizing effects.
I've moved from badger to boar due to using soaps instead of creams. The boar bristles are stiffer and better suited to soaps. This lathers up well and softens the beard ready to shave.
Excellent product - so pleased someone is still selling it
Nothing else to add
