I never tried anything that wasn't badger hair so I can't compare. My first brush was the MenEssentials Pure Badger Brush, right now I use a Vulfix. I am lusting after a Plisson... only I don't have $700 to drop at this point.

I use a Tweezerman badger. It works good for me. I'm thinking about upgrading to a Vulfix 374 super badger. But I'm wondering if it going to give me a better lather. By the way, I'm new here. You guy seem like a great bunch, and I've learned a lot haning out here and at yahoo. I've yet to have my first SR shave. I'm looking forward to it. I'm sure it will go smooth. Tim
Are you kidding $700 on a brush. For $500 I'll sell you my share of the Brooklyn Bridge. :lol:
I just got a minty Simpson Super Badger in the 120mm size off Ebay and tried it out today for the first time. The Tweezerman worked pretty well but there's no comparison. This is much more dense, softer and holds water like a sponge. Best $30.00 I ever spent.
My large Vulfix super Badger I got from Ray's shop is among my favorite. When dry and fluffed up, the breech is so large it covers most of my cheek. At first I wondered how I'd be able to use the massive brush; now, having used it, I can't imagine otherwise. The brush has exceptional water and lather holding properties. Once I've lathered up, I never need to lather up in the mug again. For a second pass, I just need to dab the tip of the brush in a bit of warm water.

$700 bucks for a shaving brush, anyone who would pay that for a shaving brush has got to have a Kangaroo loose in the top paddock.
FXR,
I agree with you 100%. I think I spent $30 on my badger brush and while I don't know what number it is or for that matter what size it is It works just fine. All I know is that for $700 you had better get a nude woman to shave you and use it. :lol:
