    Default Omega 100% badger

    I am interested in this brush. Has anyone purchased and used this brush? One Amazon review says floyy and scratchy and the other review is all positive.

    I've never held one but one thing I can tell you, if it's pure badger it will be pretty scratchy. Usually pure badgers aren't floppy because that type of hair is pretty resilient unless the fill is really skimpy.

    Hello, aramirez:

    I have an Omega pure badger brush that has good backbone and softens up nicely with hot water. It comes in a standard plastic handle with a metal ring at the base of the knot. It's quite attractive, as well as being a good brush. The one you're looking at seems to be high priced. I suppose you're paying for the wood handle.

    Regards,

    Obie
