Super Large 30mm Silivertip Badger Hair Shaving Brush Handmade by Frank Shaving Faux Ivory Color Handle

This is a large shaving brush - similar in size to a Simpson Chubby 3. It is well made and the badger silvertip bristles are soft to the touch and to your face. There is no smell and the brush can be used from the get go. It has a good backbone and lathers well - although being a large brush it is a soap hog. My method is to place the soap puck in a scuttle and then use the brush to whip up oodles of lather.I have used this brush several times and there is no shedding of bristles - it has a nice bloom when dry and it seems to be getting softer with every use. It is good value for money as it is comparable to the much more expensive Simpson Chubby 3 brushes - even if it lasts for half the time, you would have got your money's worth. The only downside was the time it took to ship the brush - from order time to getting the brush was about a month as it had to be shipped from China - so please keep that in mind when purchasing this item.
