Never heard about Ibero brushes, but even a cheap brush should last a bit longer...unless is was truly cheaply made as well.Bought an ibero brush few weeks ago, now its completely shedded... It lost 1-3 hairs each shave, and lastly it flopped over 50 hairs in one pack. i lookd inside that brush, and there was alot of empty space betwen knot and handle.........
is this how companies make brushes these days? really?
what brushes really does last? how to know are they good or bad glued?Never heard about Ibero brushes, but even a cheap brush should last a bit longer...unless is was truly cheaply made as well.
There are many excellent brushes out there that will last a very long time. Also, it depends a lot how a brush is treated and cared for as well. Very often when I have a brush for restoration with a new knot, I see a lot, and I mean really a lot, of soap/cream residue inside the knot when I cut it off.
see my post, I think #11what brushes really does last? how to know are they good or bad glued?
You may want to spend some more time here on the brushes forum and read through the many threads about brushes. There are very many excellent brushes that last a long time. As I said in an earlier post, I have seen and handled brushes that were 30 years or so old and were in superb conditions, but I also have seen quite a few that were not that old and have been not treated well - showing a lot of soap/cream residue inside the knot.Not ansvearing my question, is an clear sign that thre is extremely meny bad brushes.

I bought an Omega boar brush 10 years ago and still use it.I have 3 boar brushes and of course other fiber types. These 3 brushes cover all the level of backbone and scrub for me, from the high level to the minimum one. I don't know how long they will last, the oldest one is 3 years old and not loosing its characteristics. Honestly if they last 20 years, I would be surprised for good...
Hi, try a brand like omega from Italy. They sell for a reasonable price. And you will get value and quality. I see you just want a value at a fair price. I think omega is perfect for you. Have fun with our shaving hobby. Best, Ron EastmanYou may want to spend some more time here on the brushes forum and read through the many threads about brushes.

Most of the brands discussed here are great brushes. Not only from the established companies, but there is also a plethora of brush makers that have sprung up in the past 10-12 years. Since I am a brush maker myself, I refrain to name any names here. On rare occasions, even a high end brush may have an issue with the knot, and it may shed a bit more than expected. A reputable company will replace the knot if they see the brush was treated properly without any questions. Yes, a higher price point may be also a factor, and I would not expect a company that sells a $5-$10 brush standing behind their products - although at this price point their cost is maybe a buck or two and they might give you a new one.....
But you should re-read your post, it comes over as a bit aggressive, so you may not get too many responses.
Hi Akke, it can be frustrating. Omega is a good deal. There are a lot of good people here to help. I wish you the very best. RonBought an ibero brush few weeks ago, now its completely shedded...
