I've heard that lathering with a live badger causes some skin irritation.

They tend to object to the hot water.

And don't even get me started on trying to shake excess water out of one... :biggrin:

That and the fact that they really dislike being hung upside-down to dry.

Live Badger - The Brush that Bites Back! :blink:

Don't forget the new badger smell NEVER goes away! :lol: OK I'm gonna stop...

I actually think that would be the ideal, all-in-one badger for any wetshaver. Think of it. Each day you can try a different grade. Monday, try the pure. Tuesday, the best. Wednesday the Super. Thursday, the silvertip. I don't think he'd stay in a scuttle, though, and you might need to use the toilet bowl to whip up that lather (I'd steer clear of face lathering!).
Would that model be better for soaps or creams?

Don't forget that the badger would provide its own agitation for making lather. Regarding soaps or creams, I say go for superlather and make the thing look like a poodle. Fun for scaring the wife and kids too.

Not good for travel either, I hear the TSA is strick on not allowing people to take these as carry-on.

I think it's more laceration than irritation.:eek:

[TorzJohnson]

The only problem is - every time you lather up you'll have a bit less face left to shave.

[liege]

And it would be considered "scritchy" and a great exfoliater of your soon-to-be dead skin cells.

Umm.. Personally, if my badger did this it would be more on the irritation tip. Nothing says Lather me up like an annoying song....

No need for a razor...those claws will do the job in half the time ;)

[OldSchoolYoungin]

The only time you'd be able to blame nicks and cuts (..and mauling) on your brush.

[Mr. Gillette]

My new badger certainly has a way of lifting the old whiskers!:w00t:

I imagine the idea to lather with a live badger would definitely involve mushrooms.

One way to convince a badger to be used for lathering up : make him smell some AOS Sandalwood:biggrin:

Or perhaps threaten him with "hey either you lather some face, or you can get a job like this badger." *see below*

That looks about like the right type.
