I bought this brush as my first brush. I wanted a good value badger hair brush and seeing as I'm about to start a new job with lots of travelling I thought this would be perfect.

It is a very nice brush and I can create a good lather from it without any trouble. It's obviously relatively small-so not as comfortable to hold as some bigger brushes may be, but that's expected in a travel brush.

It will certainly hold its own until I upgrade to a luxurious and large silver tip. Although I will probably still use this one most as it will fit nicely in the wash bag.

I chose this brush because I travel a lot for my work and this wonderful brush, not only for travelling but daily use. The size is big enough than you would expact. Even further, it is easier for you to alternate lathering bowl due to the brush size during your travel. My initial decision to purchase this product was for travelling, but it does not compansate your daily use at all. Like most of other brushed, the hair may fall little bit at first couple use, but now this one. This was wonderful choice.
