Synthetic recommendations please

well had my first shave with the yaqi sagrada familia brush, i love how soft it is and it does make a good lather
i need to get used to the backbone of it tho :)
 
In my opinion you can't compare face feeling of synthetic brushes to natural fibre ones; they simply are different.
The plus of synthetics is lather capability; the downside is a somehow "plastic" feeling.
You can look after, and indeed find, a backbone similar to your preferences.
That being said, my personal advice is for plissoft Maggard bristles in your preferred sizes; I could suggest a 22 and a 26 in order to reach for a full spectrum of "sensations" while lathering: a more efficient one and a more luxurious one. If you would buy just one brush, go to the all-round 24 mm size.
After having choosed the preferred size, just choose handle type: chubby or long.
Maybe the most gorgeous synth brush Maggard sales is this 26 mm https://www.maggardrazors.com/product/maggard-razors-26mm-synthetic-shaving-brush-granite-handle/

I don't get a "plastic" feeling from my Yaqi - just has a bit less scrub. I'd agree with 24mm. Just the right size for face lathering.
