Thread: Cheap brush ideas...

I went to Meijer and bought the $5 dollar shaving brush and I think more hair fell out then stayed in when I used it. It was bad.
Anybody know where to find the best brush without spening $55 or $60?
Maybe $20 or less. Or doesnt that brush exist? Thanks!

Where do you live dude? Target, in the US, has a great brush IMO for $9USD

As mentioned, Target, CVS, Walgreens, etc will have a brush for under $10. If you want to splurge a little over your budget, you could order something like this:

Amazon.com: Omega Stripey 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush with Stand - Made in Italy - FREE SHIP!: Health & Personal Care

I checked at Target and they didn't have any. Maybe they were just out of stock that day. I'll have to check again, thanks!
FBones24 I like that brush... you're right its a little over my budget but I really want that one. I'll have to run it by the wife :l

If you like boar or horse for about $20 there should be plenty of choices out there. Check out the Vulfix at Classic Shaving. Try the Vielong horse some guys have been talking about.

Best bang for the buck brush I have ever found.
The box in the middle and the brush on the right.


Worth getting two, except they do not wear out.

I am tempted to replace the knot in one, upgrading it
to Badger from Boar. I will try it some day....

Penworks Shave Brushes : Fountain Pen - Antique Pen - Vintage Pen - Fountain Pen Ink - Penworks AZ

Thats about the best I can do. The 20mm is on sell right now for $19.96

Hello, Rugesters:

Thebigspendur has excellent suggestions. To that, I will add the Edwin Jagger brushes, which are quite good in that price range, give or take a couple bucks.

In the beginners wiki section one of the brushes it suggests is a tweezerman badger brush, I think it's $16. I've got the Van Der Hagen boar brush that nifty posted above, it was $5 for mine, and I'm satisfied with it.
