For a few months now I have been unfairly harsh on the big Stirling synthetic. I have referred to it as being too big, and mentioned that it uses too much soap. After reading some of my previous posts, my tone seems to insinuate that using such a brush is wasteful when smaller brushes can accomplish the same job with less.
I'm here to tell you that those words were WRONG! I committed to using the big Stirling about three weeks ago to see what it's really about. I've come to thoroughly enjoy the 26mm brush. my routine needed a bit of adjustment and my technique needed a slight tweak; but, now I have another synthetic brush to rotate with my Shave Revolution 24mm. The same super quick loading, super quick lather, super quick clean-up, and incredible face feel.
Sorry to you, Big Stirling! I gave you some unfair and undue bad press. You are a wonderful addition to my shave den and will remain a cornerstone of my brushes now and forever.
