Boreal Vs. Omega Boar Brush ?

Posted by thadoggfather on August 24, 2009, 10:06 am

hi everyone,
i already own an omega professional boar brush and like it a lot, but i face lather most of the time and its a little bit to big for that in my opinion, so i would like to buy a smaller boar brush, but cant decide on a Boreal or a Omega boar brush, it should be in the 21mm-24mm knot size range, can anybody compare the boreal ones with an omega one ?
i like the soft tips of the omega with still enough back bone to lather hard soaps

I would stick with the Omega vs. the Boreal

If you don't like a big brush, you might want to try a 'colors' brush, the 10065 (or 10066 in white).

Also, the Vulfix and the Semogue lines fit the bill for you as well; for Vulfix I prefer the #18 but that's personal; in Semogue I like the 1305 plenty but the 1520 is really growing on me.

Try a colors brush; if you want more style try a 10072/10077 or the lovely 81052.

I agree that an Omega Colors model is a great place to start with Omega brushes. The colors was my first Omega boar, and it remains among my favorites. I used it to lather Proraso soap this morning.
