Hello Gents (and ladies),
Until recently ive been using the body shop synthetic brush (on soaps) and loving every second. I saw in a big-w (for USA, think a smaller wallmart) a comoy best badger brush for $14aud, so i picked it up, interested to try badger (although knowing full well it was the cheapest one I was going to find).
When I tried to use it on my C&E Sienna soap the other day it worked fine, built mountains of lather perfectly, but when time came to move from mug to face everything went haywire! It was like i was brushing the knot directly onto my face, the hairs went all ourwards and pushed the lather out and onto the outter hairs and handle, leaving me with a latherfree face where the brush went over.
Long story short, is there a different technique for using natural hairs over synthetic, or is it just because this brush is rubbish?
