I just love this brush, probably my favorite brush. If you face lather anything and like a soothing little scrub this is perfection.
Price: Boars rock and are hugely much less than badgers. This runs in the twenties but you get an awesome acrylic handle and its still much cheaper than badger.
Quality: Semogue is straight up quality and this is no exception.
Density: This is a reasonably dense brush, definitely not the densest but holds plenty of lather and gives it up well.
Stiffness of tips: Great backbone on this short lofted brush. Nothing floppy about it. Picks up the hardest soaps like butter.
Softness of tips: This brush is still breaking in but I think (hope) it will always have a gentle scrub. Some boars will be crazy soft to the touch, not this one though which I like.
Ergonomic: The awesome acrylic handle is just... awesome. Well made with a great feel in the hand.
Latherability: I face lather and this brush whips soaps and creams into a frenzy.
