Omega Pro 48 Breaking in.

[Garry357]

My new Omega 48 is breaking in nicely.
Used a basic approach to soak overnight then towel rub. Soak for 4-5 hours then repeat.

I have used the brush, it has a very comfortable soft feel.

A broken in piggy is like porn to me. Don’t tell my wife.

My 8-9 year broken in 48 is a pleasure to use, the length of the loft makes it feel even softer

The loft really does make it feel softer

The splitting of the bristles seems to happen mainly as the brush dries. So, you don't really have to soak it all that long. Just make sure the brush has enough time to dry out between uses.

This is the barber brush in Italy.

I have one 48, and have broken in two others for friends.
My break-in method is to soak in a mug of water overnight; shake dry, then dry the tips only on gentle heat with a hair dryer. I repeat the process for three days, then good to go.

The 48 is easily the best and my favourite boar brush ever. In terms of break in though my process is just use it

Mine as well! It’s actually my favorite brush overall. Soft with great backbone and it’s a lathering beast!
