When I started this change into wet shaving I purchased a Bluebeards Revenge shavette kit.
A part of this was a pretty standard synthetic brush.
It’s been a pretty good brush (not that I’d really know the difference yet!) but the lacquer has pretty much disintegrated from the handle, leaving the raw wood exposed.
Is this something that happens often? I realise it’s a ‘cheap’ brush - but it’s pretty much done what every other brush of this kind has done in the sporadic times I’ve had one.
Is 4 months out of it decent?
I’ll most likely be looking for a new one soon- is this one of the advantages of a resin handle?
And is there genuine advantages to spending decent money on a brush compared to buying a quantity of Chinese cheapies, which I’m sure would be the generic version of what I currently have and just toss it after 4 months?
Thanks,
Tim
