I am thinking of trying a Magyfosia 3 band badger brush. I never heard of this company. Are they any good? I'm looking at this brush.
Magyfosia brush, any good?

Has anyone dealt with this company? It is a very low price. What would be another low priced 3 band badger brush?

I found another inexpensive brush, Taconic 3 Band pure badger 22 mm. This one got better reviews. I want to try a 3 Band Badger brush.
What is your budget?
I would rather look for a Yaqi - even though they don't have many 3Bands and the tips are most likely gelled - than an unknown producer with pics that look more like Pure (read coarse/scrubby).
Silvertip is mostly about softness and cloud like face feeling.
CC has a very nice 3Band with this qualities but it might exceed your budget so this is only for how the knot should look like. Shaving brush, badger shaving brush, silver tip shaving brush — Captain's Choice Products - https://www.captainschoicestore.com/all/shaving-brush/badger/silver-tip

Thanks for the advice. I've tried so many brushes, mostly boar and synthetic. I have tried a couple highly recommended 2 band badgers and I did not care for them. So, I am curious what a 3 band would be like.
What are some to the basic differences between a 2 band and a 3 band?
Backbone and Scrubbiness for the 2Band
Synthetics are sometimes soft as a 3Band but often have a "spring" to the fibers that makes them uncomfortable to use. If you have per chance a Mühle STF Synthetic brush in 23 or 25mm around it would give you a very good impression of a nice 3Band badger without breaking the bank.
Never heard of them but the handle looks nice

Yes I do have a Muhle STF in 23 and 25mm and they are the brushes I use the most. I'm not sure if it is worth trying a 3-band badger. Just curious what it would be like.
Not at the price level that the STF's are going for...
Still have a look if you can find a 3Band Yaqi they should be around 50 bucks if you are set for Badger.
