Semogue Excelsior 820 Bristle Shaving Brush Black Edition

I purchased this brush on a whim, I liked the handle, and the bristles where blond without the fake badger stripe. I'd never heard of Semogue, until recently when I purchased a similar brush. After 2 months it has lost only a few hairs and has softened very little although it's by no means hard. It has plenty of body and creates great lather on the face. I'm very pleased. It looks great too; much better than in the Amazon pictures. I like to have a number of brushes I like to change them and clean them every couple of weeks or so. This is one I love to use
