Thread: my new Shavemac D01 experiance.

This is still the un-used pic. I did get a chance to give it a try last night. Soaked in warm water for 5min. Put a touch of shampoo in my brush cup with the warm water and worked the brush in the cup working up the shampoo into suds and rinced. Put back in tue cup and worked up the shampoo again, rinced. Did this 4 times and the smell was next to gone. Ready for the first use.

Put brush back in the cup after rincing cup out and added some warm water. Took a shower then broke out the MDC. Brush brought up a nice lather on my face without needed a lot of soap (just as it should). I had the knot set 2mm less than what they recommended as i like a scrubby brush. Ive found my older brushes loose there backbone kinda quickly after a month of use or so.

Nice shave, brush tips were a bit prickly. Well, its new. So finshed up and cleaned up and all was well. My cheeks were a little sinsitive afterwords. Got up this morning and my cheeks are red and irritated. Guess its a bit more prickly than im used too. I think ill need to bowl lather for the first week to help break in the bristles but im thinking this is a good solid brush. Lots of backbone, good size for me (26mm) and im going to be happy. After i break it in some.

Thanks to all who pointed me in the direction of this brush.
