Sorry to jump on your post, but for me there is nothing about a soft badger brush, nor creamy, foamy lather that makes my whiskers stand up anymore than they already do (mine lay quite flat against my face). I believe that idea of the brush "standing up" your whiskers is yet another of the wetshaving fables along with letting your razor "rest" for 24 hours, canvas stroppping heating the blade, etc, etc....


Although there is a slim chance that I could be quite wrong
