Hello friends, I am new to this forum and this is my first post, i need some guidance.
since many years I used a cheap Gillete synthetic brush and it worked fine for long time but lately it became too harsh on my face and bristles was going stiff day by day. So
I decided to buy a decent shaving brush and started searching online-it did not take a long to know that badger is the choice of many, thought I should try it but also didn't want to spend too much so found a best badger hair shaving brush on aliexpress. Best Badger hair
When I received I was expecting a better experience than my old Gillete synthetic (1$ brush) but to my surprise this feels too much soft on face, Yes I wanted a softer brush but not this much soft, to be honest it feels like it doesn't have enough hair on it, may be if it had higher density of hair then wouldn't have this problem or may be badgers are always like this and I am not used to it. It creates lather quickly but all the lather stays on face and brush can't hold it like synthetic did. synthetic had enough lather for 2 passes but this only gives single pass and I have to re apply cream again, but even all of that aside the softer brush feeling is not satisfying, I would want a little stiff brush.
Are they always like such or I have bought the bad quality product or the wrong one? any guidance would help. Now I am thinking about Omega Boar brush 10049. will it ne better choice?
Thanks.
