Quality product

When the product was received, it was clear that it had been opened previous to me receiving it. The product's packaging was squished and opened. The brush itself was not dense or thick. Unfortunately had to return it to the seller.

La prima cosa che colpisce, aprendo la scatola, è la bellezza del pennello. Design molto studiato. L'impugnatura è molto ergonomica, la migliore di tutti i molti pennelli che possiedo. Ovviamente ho preparato il pennello con immersione in acqua tiepida/calda per 4 ore, con il cambio dell'acqua ogni tanto. Il pennello sembra piccolo, ma il ciuffo è grande, funziona benissimo. Logicamente nei primi 15 gg si perde qualche pelo, parliamo di fibra naturale. Finito il primo periodo, nessuna perdita. All'inizio il pelo punge un poco, ma dopo un mese rimane la grandissima dolcezza del tasso. La storia: comprai il mio primo pennello nel 1972, un tasso best. Lo usai per decenni e solo da qualche anno ho affiancato setola e sintetico. Con i sensi affinati dal confronto fra sintetici italiani e sintetici inglesi di altissimo livello, ho scoperto che il tasso best di 50 anni fa è ancora il migliore. Per questo metterò in museo tanti pennelli. Torno alla dolcezza del tasso.

Excellent quality brush. Note that this one is size Medium and a bit more expensive than the small size. The badger is very soft and works up a great lather with shave cream. There is no odor and only one or two bristles have come out in about two weeks of use. This is worth the money and I would recommend it. This is in a completely different league from the cheaper boar brushes.

This is my first shaving brush. I have been using it for 5 months now, as my beginning into DE shaving. The brush is high quality, hand knotted in Sheffield England. It feels soft and smooth on your face and beard and shaving is now a luxury for me, not just a daily chore, the brush softens the hair and works great, you can feel the exfoliation effects...now I know why my wife loves facials. The included stand is very nice and matches perfectly, I am very happy with the stand included. If you want pretty chrome and want to spend buy one, after all this is a bathroom counter accessory. A stand is a must to let your brush air dry properly, with the brush tips down, and you never want to rest the brush on it's bristles, so even during shaving flip it over to rest it on the counter, once dry completely you can invert your brush on its' top for storage. How to choose a shave brush? I knew to go with badger hair from all my research on DE & wet shaving, but picking the quality of badger hair from the 4 types of badger hair qualities was difficult. Better hair is better right? Yes but also very expensive. Well being new to wet shaving I did not want to ruin a very expensive brush, so I eliminated the top two qualities and targeted the best quality brush I could find under $60. This brush was about $45 included a stand and was Best Badger. That was the easy winner. I also choose a rounded brush over a staight brush, because it would cover more of my face faster, and provide more surface area. The medium size is ideal for my average size face. I lather up in 4 quadrants to keep the face lather wet, a good wet lather is important to a good and comfortable shave. Once you finish a quadrant rinse and move to the next area. Come back at the end and go over any areas you missed, short hairs left, or better yet redo the whole face. My brush looses an occasional hair which can be either a sign of poor quality or misuse. As I became more experienced, the hair loss from the brush is much less. Maybe one hair a week, it is still a lot but I am not an expert on wet shaving yet either, so for the price and inexperience I think that's me being to hard on the brush. If you take care of this brush it should last many years. Being new to wet shaving I have to remind myself not to press too hard so I don't ruin the brush tips...that ruins your brush. I bought a quality shave cream - Taylor of Old Bond also from Amazon. I started lathering with an old mug, but I was banging the top of the brush annoying my wife and not getting a good lather. I now use a small Pyrex bowl to lather up and that works great, lots of room and I get a great lather....spending a minute to gently work up a good lather is well worth the time. I love this brush it will sit next to the Jagger 98l DE razor I bought as my first DE razor for many years.

Acheté en remplacement d'un blaireau abordable Wilkinson utilisé pendant plusieurs années, je dois dire que la différence est grande. Ce blaireau possède des poils très souples est fins mais il permet de faire mousser très facilement la crème à raser en pot que j'utilise ( Proraso pot vert). Je n'ai pas de pertes de poils à déplorer pour le moment. L'application sur le visage est efficace et agréable. Le manche est par contre un peu petit et glissant. Le support fourni est très basique mais indispensable pour le séchage. Je pense que ce produit vaut son prix.

Buena brocha. Distribuye bien la crema, es suave. Muy importante el soporte para que pueda estar boca abajo y no se pudra el pelo.
