    Default Poll: What's your preferred brush size?

    We're talking knot diameter, regardless of loft height and hair type or grade.

    Ditto, but I've got larger and smaller that I like quite a bit too.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I only have two brushes; a Dave Stevens and a Rooney Silvertip Badger and have no idea about the knot size on either.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I have a hunch that 24mm is the most "popular", but it would be great if as many people as possible voted. It would be cool to see the numbers for the SRP community as a whole.

    I'm new and only have one brush. It came with a kit from AoS I think its 22mm, plenty big for me. But I would like to try a few more before I say what my favorite is.

    26mm for me. just starting to get big at this size. I have a 24mm and a 20mm I like a lot too, but I reach for my 26 the most. I have a 30mm I'm going to be doing in the near future for myself. We"ll see if I like how BIG that size is.

    As big, soft, and fluffy as I can get it, as long as it has a backbone. I also like a longer handle so I can keep my fingers out of the lather. 3-4" is about right for me.

    24 is my standard size. I have not yet finished a set I am making of 5 sizes so I can only compare to 2 smaller brushes that I also like. I don't think bigger is going to work well for me. I just want to lather my face not the ears,nose,chest :<0)
