What is Plisson and where does it come from?
If you want a shaving brush with real history, Plisson 1808 is one of the oldest brush manufacturers in France — operating continuously since the era of Napoleon, for whom they created a special shaving set. Over two centuries of handcrafted French expertise in a single brush.
What makes Plisson brushes stand out?
If you've used a cheap brush that sheds hair, doesn't hold water properly or feels scratchy on the face, Plisson is on a different level. Handcrafted, with hair that builds lather quickly, retains water properly and delivers a feeling of luxury every time it touches the face.
What types of brushes does Plisson make?
If you're wondering what hair type to choose, Plisson offers badger, synthetic and two-band brushes — each with a different feel and performance. Their synthetic brushes are particularly well known because they feel almost like badger without any animal ingredients.
Is a Plisson brush worth the price?
If you think a brush is "just a brush," the difference shows the moment you use a properly made one — lather builds faster, spreads evenly across the face and the shaving experience changes entirely. A Plisson lasts years with proper care, so the price pays for itself over time.
How do I care for a Plisson brush?
After every shave, rinse thoroughly with warm water, shake gently to remove moisture and leave it to dry with the hair facing down on a stand. Never in a closed damp space — proper storage keeps the hair in shape and prevents mould.
