Here's a question that's just come up for me that I wanted to solicit fellow members opinions on. I'm fortunate to have quite a few brushes in many different hair types. My current regular rotation includes a Silvertip that I have been using more or less every day for the past couple of weeks to exhaust some old shaving cream stock.
Does anyone feel that a silvertip (or any other type of badger brush) should be dried out completely before its next use and if so why? I follow this protocol with my boar because its widely believed to "soften" the brush by allowing the tips to split, but don't with any of my badgers or horsehairs.
