Hello,
I've been a short time lurker and am in the process of purchasing my first brush. I want a good brush but not top of line. Believing in the law of diminishing returns, I don't want to spend that extra $100+ for the slight improvement. So with that said, I'd like to spend around $100 for the brush. I don't mind spending more, but I would like to keep the max at $150. The two brushes I've looked at are Shavemac Silvertip L and Rooney Super Silvertip Style 1 Medium. I'm not sure if I see the necessity of the XXL brushes. Maybe it's just I have limited knowledge of why a larger brush is better. In any case, what would you guys recommend?
In case it matters for your recommendations, I shave every night and have incredibly tough whiskers. I also have very durable skin on my face, however my neck is a total push over. I could dry shave my face with no shaving cream and not get a single nick. On my neck however, if the wind blows across it in the wrong direction I'll have razor burn.
