Hey everyone, I'm planning on getting a synthetic brush soon (just waiting for the shop to re-stock a few other things too) and I was wondering what you guys thought made a Synth better than a natural. Is it the cost-effective way they immitate badgers? or is it because they have properties that natural brushes cannot ever have? I'm personally looking into yaqi brushes and some of them are apparently more synthetic (i.e. very plush and floppy and have less water and heat retention etc.) or very similar to badger (at least in appearance and backbone). I'm speaking specifically of the Beaux G4 synth (more badgerlike I think) and the Polar HD synth (more synth than badgerlike). If any of you have any experiences with any yaqi brushes I'd love to hear them. I know they're all pretty great and unbeatable price wise but I'd like to know what you look for.
Thanks in advance Gents!
