I have a few badger brushes, from cheap Pure to Simpson Best and TGN Finest.
But the majority of my brushes are either low end Pure, or restores of vintage brushes that I have done with TGN knots.
And guess what? From all of those grades of knots I have mentioned, I love every one of them. From the stiffest, most densely packed to the floppiest, moppish ones. They all have their good and bad points, but for me, on a soft croap or cream, the floppy ones are special. I might not choose them for hard soaps(although I do from time to time, still with excellent results), but they excell with creams and croaps, and feel soft and pillowy on the face.
But my experience with brushes doesn't extend to l lot of the higher brand brushes, just my restores, so I have no frame of reference to compare them to.
I know that there are members here who love these softer, floppier brushes, because over the 18 months I've been wetshaving I have read the posts.
What are some of the more loved "floppy" or "moppy" type brands? I would like to see some of the better quality brands represented, but price isn't the only consideration here. If you have a soft, floopy brush that you love, whatever the price or brand, please post a picture, tell me why you love it, what brand, etc?
This is my favorite flopper.
Ever Ready 500 PBT with a TGN 18mm Finest F2. Soak it, and it falls over like a champ, lol. But it works beautifully on everything from triple milled soaps to creams, and feels incredible on my face.
