For the absolute longest time, actually since I started wet shaving almost two years ago. I was totally impressed with my Simpson Special Pure Badger. I didn’t think life could get any better.
Fast forward to my first Synthetic, a nice cheap brush from Maggards. I got it and I thought meh I don’t get the hype, well then let’s fast forward again, I used only that Synthetic for the longest time, then acquired a Simpson T1 on another impulse purchase. Months and months and months went by as I only used a Synthetic brush.
Today I used my Simpson Badger and the results were horrendous, couldn’t make a great lather. My neck is broken out and itchy, it wasn’t soft like my Synthetic”s and I wasn’t pleased with the outcome.
I hate to be that guy now, but I’m all in on Synthetic brushes only moving forward.
