Random Thought #34: I still can't decide if I like synthetic brushes. Most days I prefer a good boar or badger brush...or even a horse hair brush. I just like the feel...and to me they exemplify the old school nature of our wet shaving passion. But this morning I dug out my synthetic brush and really enjoyed my shave. A synth has a different feel on my face, but there is no denying they can work up a nice thick lather. But then again, so can an aerosol can of Gillette Foamy. I like synths in the summer when the humidity is so high it can take three days for a boar or badger brush to dry. I find a synth dries quickly. But then again, this is why having a dozen or so brushes in the den can come in handy...the drying time time between use of many brushes in rotation isn't an issue.
But I digress. I think for now, my synth will see random service.
