If you guys, more experienced and owners of mighty brush collections say they are bad I'll probably keep my money in my wallet... and then, would you please recommend a brabd that is not that expensive and can be a nice starter badger brush for someone on a budget? I've been considerering other brands like Vulfix, Rooney and Kent... Thanks!

Forget Omega babger. I have a pure babger omega model 666. Hare pain in the face, does not retain water, lather does not ... FORGET

I suspect your problems could have been avoided if you had paid closer attention to the model number!
Yes, thats right, you got the Devils little helper model!

I bought one starting out. It is better than a boar brush and, I think anyway, a good start to badger.

If you have the money and are sure you want to keep wetshaving, by all means go ahead and jump to something like the C&E. I have one and I love it. But if you want (need?) to start out slow go ahead and try the Omega. It is a step up from the boar and nylon.

Just my thoughts,
