Hey everyone does anyone else have a Simpson chubby 1 super badger that gets like gel tips.I got it 3 weeks ago been using it every few days and its got like hooks on the end of the hairs.Is this natural for a super badger or is the hair damaged?It's super soft and i'm enjoying the brush but didn't think it was supposed to go like this.Any advice would be much appreciated.

Loves a smelly brush
Looks like a great example of a Chubby 1 to me. Enjoy it.

I smell like a Christmas pudding
I have owned several Simpson brushes in all grades and none of them have had gel tips and nor have the ends split. I believe that gel tips require the hair to be treated including bleaching which as far as I know Simpson do not do but I may well be wrong. Gel tips seem to be the fashion at the moment but I prefer a scrubby brush so I do not care for them. If you like the brush as is then enjoy it, but I do not think it is the norm for Simpson brushes and I hope they are not introducing gel tips into their range.

That's what i was thinking i've never heard anyone mentioning hairs jelling on a simpsons.I don't know if to send it back i got it on amazon so only got a few days to get it back.I do love the feel of the brush i face lather it's like a pillow but it cost a lot and don't want to regret not sending it back.Can't make my mind up.I have owned several Simpson brushes in all grades and none of them have had gel tips and nor have the ends split.

Looks fine to me.
Enjoy it. Especially if you like the way it performs for you. Looks like a great brush.
I have a chubby 2 and persian jar 1 in super and the persian jar is gelly but the chubby is not. Now as for shedding on the chubby 2 thats a different story...
I agree. I have a 2 in super but it might actually be too big for me! I've often thought about a 1 in super or even best. Enjoy it! It's hard to find something as soft.
I have no idea if this normal or not. Why not shoot Simpson an email with a couple of photos and see what they say. I would be interested to know what the manufacturer has to say.
Thank you. Appreciate your reply.

Thanks everyone for your advice.It's so nice to hear other peoples opinions.I'm definately keeping the brush its my absolute favourite right now.I love it more than the last one i got.I always do.lol Thanks so much everyone.Cheers.
Everything seems to be fine, my new Chubby1 Super Badger has the same light gel tips as yours.
It seems to be a different batch than before. I also have an older Super Badger that does not have these signs.
But it is not bad, because this chubby1 feels very good, only I have never had this feeling with a Simpson and I have a lot of Simpsons to choose from.

Chubby 1 Super Badger must be my all time favorite brush, maybe a tie with the Classic 1 Best Badger. Perfect size, density and face feel
Enjoy it!
Enjoy it!
