As I wrote on a recent SOTD I struggle to understand natural brushes and yet I would love to add one to the fold. I just cannot get my head around making the same quality lather as a synthetic which I have no problem at all with in use. The other problem I have is the actual application to ones face.
I have a Traditional Shaving Co best badger (probably not the best by a long shot) and it don't seem to hold the cream to the same level as the synthetic. Then when applying to my face the whole brush just flattens out with a very defined hole in the middle.
In general a long way of what I can achieve with my Muhle synth.
Am I missing some big point or is it simply synthetics are actually all That?
If it comes down to brush quality then any hints as to any recommendations and what do I need to look for when buying a natural fibre brush.
