hello,
im a newbie and have been lurking for a while. i have tried the straight razor shaving but have had poor although improving results.anyway maybe later we can discuss that.i've looked in past forums but couldnt find an answer to my question.what i was really wondering is whether there is an ethical from the point of cruelty badger brush. i was watching a sky news report here in ireland about the disgusting dog and cat fur trade in china . have a look at the peta website.some of those animals are stolen pets!
they skin some of them alive.as most if not all of the badger hair comes china i'm sure although i have no guarantee that there treated the same if not worse. when i bought my badger brush i would have liked the option of a brush without the cruelty. mine is cyril s salter brush.some websites suggest that they are sheared but mr moss refutes this.i certainly dont wish to provoke an argument and am not a fanatic but just wished to hear your thoughts.
thanks guys,
nev
