I have a few older badger brushes that develope beautiful creamy peaks during lathering and I love that, except they don't have much, or any backbone. Two that I recently used are a Simpson super badger and a Simpsons manchurian
Recently I've developed an urge to try something with more backbone to it. I've bought a few from the B/S/T section. They feel more rigid, less floppy however the tips do not develope that rich, thick lather that I also like. They are OK, but not as good as the 2 Simpsons.
Is the ability for the brush to develope the thick, rich lather something that gets better with time? I know that boar brushes develope split ends with time which helps. What about badger brushes?
