My next installment of Chinese reviews will focus on synthetic brushes. My favourite knot size for synthetics is 24mm therefore it made complete sense for me to choose 26mm brushes for this. I've one from each of the well known manufacturers:
Frank Shaving 26mm G4 - the latest generation of knot
Yaqi 26mm tuxedo - I could have gone for their newest generation (mew brown) but their tuxedos are excellent
Dscosmetics 26mm T4 - latest generation as per G4
As per most Chinese brushes, these have high glue bumps but have loosened somewhat after a few palm lathers. The exception is the dscosmetics T4 which has an insanely high glue bump - I've very low expectations for this brush.
First shave will be with the Yaqi tomorrow.
