So I finally got tired of my omega boar being a lather hog and giving me just over 1 pass worth of lather, thus I did some looking around and decided to talk to Larry at WD and he got me set up with a 24mm Synth brush. My first reaction was oooo such a nice feeling knot with a hefty and very comfortable handle! I then decided even though I didn't need a shave I was going to lather up and give this beauty a test run. I AM DISGUSTED with myself.... I cannot believe I waited so long to buy this brush and I honestly for the first time see why people have more than one brush as I can't wait to order another one for me and for my Stepdad! Doing the same thing with my Arko as I was with the omega I lathered my face up 4 times and probably could have gone a few more times. I also really liked the feel of the brush on my face as I worked it in but that is probably more of a YMMV thing. Anyways I really really enjoyed this brush and for the price I would definitely recommend anyone considering a new brush at least have a look at Larry's offerings!!!
