from what i read online that erasmic brush is something like 24mm knot so i think after using that id probably like something bigger, so i thought id take a punt with this 30mm know synthetic brushHave a look at A P Shave company or even the body shop I’m sure they do a cheap little synthetic brush that you can pick up on the high street
Yes that looks ideal mate bigger knot especially for head shaving with more ground to coverfrom what i read online that erasmic brush is something like 24mm knot so i think after using that id probably like something bigger, so i thought id take a punt with this 30mm know synthetic brush
yea thats what i thoughtYes that looks ideal mate bigger knot especially for head shaving with more ground to cover
thats interesting never heard of anyone having a reaction to badger hair shaving brushes, what sort of reaction? if you dont mind me asking mate
Can you photograph the actual brush?no way seriously? i read on the back of the erasmic brush it actually said synthetic fibres, so i thought it was a safe buy tbh
in regards to the wilkinson sword it didnt say anything about being boar hair bristle it just said finest bristles or something like that off the top of my head, suirely they should make it clear for the consumer, well thats what i wouldve thought they wouldve done...
looks like ill have to PIF the erasmic and wilkinson sword brushes lol
Likewise, I reacted to badger hair ...Don’t mind at all. Just got a slight reddening and my face felt a bit hot, as if I was blushing. I was using a soap I’d used loads before (Phoenix and Beau Spitfire) with no problems, and it happened again a couple of weeks later with the same brush, this time with a TOBS Sandalwood soap, which I’d also used plenty of times before with no issues. It might have been an issue with that particular brush, like it not having been sterilised properly perhaps, but soon after that I started to find out about the welfare issues and decided to stick with synths, and I’ve not had reason to regret that choice.
Not sure to be honest mate think some of the PAA are between £20-£30 yaqi are quite a bit cheaper, ap shave are quite reasonably priced too, Simpson do some synthetics but can be quite a bit more depending which model you go with, I have never had something as big as 30 mm as I face lather and find my 28mm chubby plenty big enough but head shaves are different maybe £30 range perhaps a bit more if that’s any helpyea thats what i thought
whats a good price for say one of these synthetic brush with 30mm knots, would you say? you know just to give me an idea...
My favourite is the Dandelion with the cashmere knot
and I'm now looking at which versions are on sale 'cos I "need" one to go with my rose soaps
I'll let you in on a secret, Chris. I am currently planning for my "release" later in the year, and when I go nationwide again the Groom Room will be a pilgrimage en-route to my erstwhile regular stays in AberdeenA Yaqi Dandelion does wonders with hard soaps. I can also highly recommend the whiskey barrel from The Gentleman's Groom Room up in Dundee. An absolute boss little brush
