Browsing a different forum, a member asked about the longevity of brushes and what is normal wear. He posted a pic of a Simpson pure and it had a doughnut in the middle. I've seen this before but mostly on synthetics. My immediate thought was he was applying too much pressure. He stated it was his only brush and that he used the brush every other day for four years.
Today during my shave I wondered, do I use too much pressure? Maybe one of my brushes might be 4 years old. With my rotation of 8 brushes, it would take me around 16 years (shave every day) to get the same usage. I wondered what my brushes would look like after the same use.
So, has anyone here used the same brush everyday for years? If so, what does it look like? Did it develop a doughnut hole? Pictures would be awesome.
