Item Description
Well, ya can't beat $4.50, but if I were you I'd spend an extra few bucks and buy an Omega Syntex.
Burma Brush:
I bought this from Wally World for a song, so on the bright side they're not only cheap, but widely available.
They're made of natural bristle which is very stiff compared to badger hair. They also don't hold as much water or heat as badger hair.
This brush will really stink to high heaven on it's maiden voyage. I would suggest soaking it in a borax solution before using it.
As far as lathering goes, I can generate adequate lather with this, but I noticed some hair loss during the process. This is another reason why I would suggest an Omega Syntex (no loss of hair and no smell).
This brush is about as scrubby as they come, so if you like the feeling, this brush is right up your alley.
I probably wouldn't buy another one of these if I had lost one.
This seems to be the absolute beginner brush. Many give these away to friends that are newbies to wetshaving.
