How's that S-Brush from Omega?
Hello there!...sorry for the belated reply..The Omega S brush is a great brush,it's slightly floppy, but it has enough backbone to use with with hard soaps,and is great with shaving creams. The brush is very soft,whips up a great lather instantly i purchased this for travel, but I use it at home too.If I could have only one brush, I wouldn’t feel bad with this.
People say that you don’t have to soak a synthetic brush, which is true. But you will find that a good soak in hot water will help the brush retain heat longer.
PS: i also have the Omega S 10018. If your sitting on the fence to try a synthetic brush, you can't go wrong with an Omega S.
Regards. B :thumbup:
