Just started face lathering so was looking for a slightly stiffer brush. I found an Edwin jagger best badger on offer for £18 which felt good and stiff when I tried it in the shop.
Tried it this morning, It was surprisingly soft and it swallowed the lather so I made more. Hard to assess it really after one shave but it seems fine just maybe not as stiff as I hoped I’ll keep using it and see.
I’d used a GSB for the last few days but couldn’t get a great shave with it, not particularly close or smooth and always a few red areas.
I was glad to see the back of it and replaced it with an Astra SP today.
What a difference, completely close and smooth it’s such a great blade for me. Whenever I’ve had a few rough shaves I keep coming back to it as I know it’ll look after me. Got a bbs even on my top lip which I’ve never had before.
Great cold splash and a bit of the old Proraso Green, nice start to my Sunday.
