The Lather Maestro
I just got 4 brushes that were to be the basis for my first restore attempts. But one of them needs no restoration at all! It's definitely worth the price I paid for all 4, delivered ($20) at least!
Here is the original photo of the 4.
The one on the right looks and feels unused. A couple of dry hairs were falling out of it. I cleaned it up with a dish sponge, then got some Flitz to polish it up. For all of 3 minutes. Washed the handle off with dish soap, then upstairs for a little shampoo and conditioner.
It feels a lot smoother than my Tweezerman, I'm guessing Best or Finest badger. I decided to lather up some Kiss My Face and it was so impressive, I got the camera out again. Here she is in the scuttle.
Here she is with some nice meringue peaks on her next to the Tweezerman.
And finally ... how does that look next to the chrome on the EJ 86? Wow!
I will shave with her tomorrow. I think that just replaced the Tweezerman. At least until my King1976 Gabon Ebony gets here.
Not bad for one of my first purchases on the Bay!
