The brush is a Rudy Vey AS3M made around 2013. Since 2015, it's been my daily driver except when traveling. I rinse it well after every use and give it a deeper clean every month or so by lathering up with Dawn.
It's starting to "shed" fibre. Not a lot. But every shave without fail over the past week, I end up plucking one or two errant strands from the lather. Some are wiry/curly but most are straight. Today, I took a look at one and I noticed that the base of the fibre has a clump resembling a follicle.
The brush still works well but it's never lost fibre before. Ever. Not until last week. Has anyone else experienced similar fibre loss? Does this usually mean that the knot's glued base is starting to deteriorate?
