Hi Gents,
As much as I love this hobby and reading the forums, I'm starting to believe that product reviews aren't as reliable as you would think. I think they should be taken with a large pinch of salt.
The fact is, we all have different tastes and preferences, different faces and beards, different water supplies, live all around the globe. Added to that, brushes vary so much between batches in terms of loft, knot shape, and hair quality. I speak from experience of various Rooney and Simpsons brushes I've owned. Not to mention the reformulation of soap ingredients.
Added to that the hype that surrounds certain products and personal bias for certain brands/ingredients, makes it all even less reliable.
Discuss!
