Just ordered a NEW brush

I just ordered a Vie-long 14030 horse hair brush. This is my 7th brush but my first horse hair.

I'm looking forward to seeing how it does compared to badger and boar hair. BTW it's the ivory with chrome bottom model.

I was literally looking at a horse hair brush today. The badger/horse mixed travel brush looks like a good size for face lathering.

Would be good to get your opinion on it once it arrives. I like mixed brushes quite alot more then the standard badger or boar.

I like soft brushes of all kinds.

Here's my write up on some nice stick lathering brushes: http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php/359040-Stick-brushes-shootout where I compare these:

Cheers for the comparison. I was curious how the horse hair would do! Good to hear your a fellow face latherer!

Nice comparison those are some nice brushes. I almost got a Da Vinci 290 last week when they were on sale.

When it arrives I'll let everyone know how it does compared to a badger or boar hair.

Just purchased the Vie Long 14020 Badger/Horse mix, im a sucker for smaller brushes to face lather.

Cool let me know how the mixed hair brush is?

Will do! Just purchased a Vulfix 2273 aswell...

I'll have to see what the Vulfix looks like

I've used this brush twice already at I really like it. It's got a great loft and the bristles are nice and soft.

I bowl lather but I'm sure it will work face lathering. I think it works best on soft soaps I tested it when I got on MWF and didn't have as much luck as I would with a boar brush.

...But over all very well priced and nice feeling brush.
