Good

This brush will probably last a good long while due to having synthetic bristles. However, synthetic bristles are NOWHERE near as good at lathering as a good badger brush. This thing absolutely keeps its' shape wet as if dry - no change when wet. Doesn't seem to take on enough soap to lather adequately. I will keep trying and maybe it will soften after enough time and use, but I'm not holding out much hope for that. Though it was absolutely worth the low purchase price, you still only get what you pay for. Next time I will just buy another badger hair shaving brush and tolerate the loose hairs falling out. Update: After a couple of weeks usage, the bristles have softened somewhat - but not nearly enough to even come close to a badger hair brush. I had given a mediocre review, but with the miniscule softening of the brush I am willing to upgrade my review just a bit to four stars. Second Update: After a couple of months of usage, the bristles have softened up significantly and give a thick luxurious lather. I have upgraded to five stars due to the brush's excellent quality after a 2.5 month break-in period. So, buy one and give it some time and don't immediately leave a mediocre review as I did. Seriously, this thing keeps getting better. Five stars!

As advertised

This is my first shave brush as I am new to traditional wet shaving so I'm no expert bit what I can say is this: - Its very cheap compared to some other brushes. - Has not fallen apart and its very well made and feels great in the hand. - Its very soft, which feels great on the skin, but lathering up on the face takes a little while because the bristles don't stay together or distribute evenly when pressing the brush against your skin, which I believe is called breaking the back of the brush. - Lathers shave soap direct from a bowl very well (can't comment on lathering in a dish as I don't do that). - Why isn't a Simpson T5 this cheap! LOL. Overall I am very happy and impressed with this brush, and for the price, it's a must buy for the saver on a budget (which is me and why I chose this brush).

Excellent brush - good quality hairs, nice to hold and it foams up great. Great value!
