    Just got my H.I.S. brush in the mail today, going to shave with it tonight and see if all the hoopla is true.

    Ordered one about 2 weeks ago and just got it today! Can't wait to use it. It is incredibly soft and I'm sure all of the good things I've been hearing about it will be true.

    I had an old AOS stand that was mounted under my sink cabinet and it works fine.

    This is without a doubt the softest brush i have ever used, and it easily made more than enough lather. It is super efficient.

    I just received mine today, I agree with everyone who is saying this is the softest brush they've ever used.

    Is that from the VDH kit? If not, where did you get it?

    The brush dries so quickly, I don't think a stand is necessary.

    Since it is manufactured by a make-up brush company, I'm going to assume that it just means "HIS" (3rd person male singular pronoun). I don't think I've seen any other indication to it actually meaning anything anywhere.

    Yeah, but the way they spell it w/ the period btw. each letter leads me to believe that it's an abbreviation and that each letter stands for a word.
