Hi guys, I currently have 4 brushes:
Semogue Owners Club
Omega barber pole badger (sorry forgot model)
Omega 10005 boar
Yaqi segrada synthetic
I like each for different characteristic but all seem to have glaring flaws. Can you suggest a brush that combines the best attributes or soft tips, decent backbone, easy splay, and most importantly easy lather release?
Semogue: very soft after broken in, but too much of a lather hog (3 times as much soap needed vs the Yaqi). Also splatters everywhere, not enough backbone.
Omega badger: similar issues as the Semogue, lather hog, not enough back bone.
Yaqi: absolutely excellent lathering, releases easily and consistently, softest tip I've come across and good backbone. But, too springy, hard to splay for face lathering.
Omega boar: prickly even after 5 years of use. Lathers better than the Semogue and not too much of a hog although still far from the synthetic.
