I decided to add a Simpson Tulip 2 in 3-band Super to my Simpson Tulip 2 in 2-band that I have. I resisted for awhile, but alas, I had to find out for myself what the 3-band was like.
I've only had it for a few days now and only one use, but I just noticed today after comparing them dry on the face that they are remarkably similar in feel to me. The 3-band isn't as dense or have as much backbone to the 2-band of course but the tips feel almost dead even otherwise. Just the 3-band has less of a scratchy feel to it, but maintains a good amount of the scrub I get from the 2-band.
Something odder than how similar they feel to me is I love the sound of using the 3-band more. I can't explain it but it really adds to the pleasure of the shave.
I guess with all the various brushes I've tried through many different types I'm just surprised how close the 2-band and 3-band for this manufacturer seem to be for me. Anyone else have this as well?
