Exactly that Razorock brush is already on the way to me from USA.Yaqi 24mm Tuxedo knots are nice. Sagrada Familia is a nice brush for example but other Yaqi brushes have the same knot. It just depends on personal preference for the handle.
I know you specifically mention Yaqi, but another brush to consider is Razorock 24mm with the Plissoft knots. There are a few handle styles that use the same knot.
They are not too expensive and given your preferences are worth checking out.
It says can't be delivered from Spain to Norway only from China, which is strange, but I will check it again maybe with some other brushes.In fact it can’t be had for £8.45 shipped from Spain on the app which will make delivery much quicker as at the moment free shipping is taking a long time from China, (currently waiting in soaps and splashes order over 2 months ago and the first has just been cleared at customs!)
Thanks for the info.I ordered my SF brush earlier this year and ticked the Spain box when ordering. A week later I got a message from Yaqi to cancel the order and make a new one from China.
This might no longer be the case but thought I'd mention it.
I know your saying Yaqi but you should give the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements brushes a go.Thanks for the info.
I have already 2 PAA and I love them. Those 2 are the absolute favorites as of today. I like most The Green Ray and I often use the Peregrino also.I know your saying Yaqi but you should give the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements brushes a go.
Brilliant brushes & not much backbone
Thank for the tips! have you maybe measured them? If the 26 and 24 are really that size? I mean at top of the handle where they are the most "thin".I'm four Yaqis in so farObviously personal preference, but the Sagrada Familia Tuxedo is my fave. 26mm Tuxedo (Mysterious Space) feels more like a powder puff than a shaving brush! 24mm Chianti Tuxedo is the same knot as the SF obviously, and herein lies the rub. Look out for Yaqi "defect" brushes if you don't mind handle style. Cheap as, and all of mine have been spot on.
I've also picked up the Yaqi Beaux HD Premium Synthetic knot - holds more water and is a little less soft, but an awesome brush for the price.
Ok, so it is basically that two PAA I have as of today (and which I already like a lot), kind of "Yaqi knots" just with different handles? So now I will have soon 6 very "similar" brushes?All Yaqi synths are more than capable of making an excellent lather, but it's about finding the right size for your needs.
IMO, the 24mm are about the sweet spot, but the 26mm seem to make a lather a touch quicker.
The only thing I would say is worth keeping an eye for is if you buy direct from Yaqi they occasionally send out a stinker, one that will have a glue bump set ridiculously high but they send out replacements if you contact them.
Yaqi also make OEM brushes for a few others including PAA, who's brushes cost a little more but come with nice handles and you can get them from a number of retailers in the UK, I know a few guys speak of them very highly here.
