I am nearing the decision to purchase a BK4. For the past 4 months I've been using a Vulfix 2233 exclusively (is shedding ~2 hairs per shave) and need to send that back for replacement.
Obviously, I can't be without a brush so I think it might be time for an upgrade.
I use both soaps (Tabac) and creams (Taylors, Trumpers)
I have sensitive skin and find the Vulfix to be very soft - maybe too soft? I started with the Art of Shaving starter set and found the brush included in the set to actually cause me irritation. I think soft bristles are what I need, but would like something with substance for soaps - thoughts?
I've also been toying with holding off on the BK4 and getting the C&E Best for the time being until I have a real excuse to "splurge" on another quality brush. Any thoughts there?
Also - I notice the "GBK1777" code was last reported to be working in the beginning of August. I tried (while the site was in US dollars) to enter the code and received an error message from Kent. Am I doing something wrong or have I missed my window of opportunity? Thanks all.
