Is this the same thing as Crabtree &amp; Evelyn badger best brush? Or the Badger Pure brush? Thanks

I am afraid there is not an industry standard that specifically defines grades of badger hair, there are basic classifications that many manufacturers use to describe the quality of hair used in their brushes.

The best way is to use it with a brush. For a starter brush: Escali 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush

Braun sells this brush for around $50 around the world. There is no difference. I got mine for $50 three or four yesrs ago. Dont psy that amount. It is over inflated!

What's the difference between this and the DC35 "non animal" version? This one costs more but the only thing I see is a special brush???

I love mine. I have looked at them in the store and they are the same. You can buy them at Kohls and Bed Bath and Beyond in the store. Compare prices and do the best deal. They were the same brushes for me. You can always send it back if you are not happy. .

I did not have particular issues with the bristles falling out, but abandoned this one because the plastic bristles were about 1cm longer than the "boar" bristles, which was not what I wanted. I went with a Kent brand brush, which is quite good, but more expensive.

The brush is very good. It has a curve in it that works really well for me. If I were you, I would not hesitate to buy one.

Hi, I am not sure you posted this in the right place. I am a buyer and I bought mine in 2013 off Amazon and it is still good today. The label is coming off but this is only cosmetic. It works great, has the button and is the best brush to remove the undercoat that I have found for my Husky. I think if you bought it from this seller and you think it is an inferior copy you should contact Amazon.

I bought this brush for my wife and she fell in love with it. She made me buy 2 more, one for her mother and an extra one for her in case anything happens to hers. She tried many other brands before which she never liked any of them.

I like both brands. They both perform about the same, Gelish I think lasts slightly longer. I find them both to be about the same to remove. I like the Gelish brushes and the cost better.

I am 61 years old and have fine but fairly thick hair. The Mason Pearson with not pull or break your hair when you brush through it. It is very effective but doesn't cause any damage. I have used one since I was in my 20's and I can assure you that it is one of the best brushes I have ever used. I have tried all brands and pure boar bristle brushes but the combination of the nylon/boar bristle far surpasses any I have used. Hope this helps you make your decision to buy one.

I got the Van Der Hagen kit with the badger brush. The stand fits amd its cheap. The soap and mug are decent too. The only knock is the stand is plastic and the knot came out of the handle on the brush. Emailed the company and they replaced it. Happened again so I just glued it back and its great. Plus I now have a backup brush. I like the Lord razor as its not very aggressive. I have used it with several blades and I prefur Merkurs but thats a personal choice. Good luck

Love this brush. It is very strong. Doesn't bend like the others. I will recommend this to any one.

I think they are synthetic, which I prefer. Boar bristle brushes tear up my hair, and this brush does not. I also love the Twilight paddle brush. On it, the bristles are plastic with beads on the end. That brush has lasted for years without losing any of the beads. Honestly, any of the Twilight hair care products are the best I've ever used.

I have tried this one, the Erisonic, a Chinese knockoff Clarisonic and a Conair True Glow brush. You can purchase this brush for $20-$40 if you look on Ebay or Amazon and you have time to look for a deal. The other brushes range in price from $40-$100, but be careful if it looks like a Clarisonic. The one I got obviously came from a Chinese factory that manufactured for the big brand-name company, but I suspect it was rejected because the battery wouldn't take a charge after it wore down after about a month of use. Disapointing since it did work somewhat better on my 57 year-old skin than the other three. If you want to buy the overpriced brand, pay one of the approved retailor's to be sure you get the warranty. Otherwise, at the price points I mentioned, the Erisonic at $56 including shipping was the best buy. The Sirius is definitely adequate at the price I paid, but I wouldn't pay over $30 for it. Whatever you buy, avoid the spin brushes like "Brite Leaf" or Pro-X which are not worth the $$ in this reviewer's opinion.The Sirius Brush is definitely worth its Amazon bargain price point.

I'm sorry, I have no idea what you mean by "popular brushes". Boar bristle is the best. Mason Pearson (and other companies) add in nylon because it's very difficult to pull a purely boar bristle brush through thick, long hair. Your age has nothing to do with what type of brush you use. This is a superior brush and I'd recommend it to anyone.

I bought replacement brushes on Amazon several years ago. It was clear which ones to buy. Have not checked recently to see what they are offering.
