Thank you for your boar advice! I really appreciate reading your suggestions
I agree with you that omega can change hair quality within the batches. I put on sale my quite as new Proraso boar brush (I have 2) because it has less backbone as my first one. Still is a great brush but I have a Mondial brush (bought on the valuable advice from @Chan Eil Whiskers) that covers the soft area.
By the way (Thater in the mind) do you have the omega 48? If yes, what do you think about it?

For facelathering, i would suggest an Omega 24x55, if you want backbone, but not too much. It will be lower than Proraso, but still there. The dyed Omegas, are supposed to be a bit softer. Supposed, because i can tell you for sure, that Omega can change the bristle quality in the same model according to various batches. I have the same model in 2 brushes. The older brush has softer quality bristle. A more luxurious equivalent would be the Semogue 1250 (22x52 loft). This is badger-like soft on the upper half and the backbone is more pronounced in the lower half.
If you want a backbone similar to Proraso (maybe a bit lower), get Omega 22x50 or the Semogue 1470 (21x48 loft), which will be bit softer than the Omega, but with more backbone than the 1250.
