Hi I originally bought a "pure badger" brush and it worked perfectly.
I thought I'd buy a "super" since I had heard it is softer and can hold more water, expecting that holding more water means transferring more water to shaving cream and therefore saving money.
This is the "super badger" I bought.
However on acca kappa's webpage it reports it as a pure badger . Upon research i larned that super just means that it is pure badger that has had the tips bleached and there is no real regulation as to the difference, am i correct? It does look like the "super" badgers I see on other webpages.
Can I ask those who have tried two of pure, best, super and silvertip which one they believe will lead to saving money on shaving soap? To me the ability to use less soap is a key feature in the "water holding capacity" of the different brushes. Alternatively why would the water holding capacity matter. In my expereince, which is doubtful per above since I'm not sure of what best "really" means, the pure brush transferred more water to the soap and skin, whereas the best retained the water such that the soap was a bit dry. I only tried the best brush once so maybe I haven't used it enough yet. I'll report if there are changes later
thx!
