Sheds like a German Shepard
Updated review - after using for past year plus, it is starting to lose bristles like crazy.  They end up in sink, on my face, in drain (hope it doesn't clog).  I have never had a brush shed like this before so very disappointing.  Otherwise, it is very durable and soft.  I really enjoyed it at first but would think it would last longer.  I have had other brushes last for years.<br /><br />Original Review<br />Super soft with minimal break in.  I let it sit in hot water for about 10 minutes and by the 2nd shave, seemed very well broken in.  I didn't notice any hairs falling out so well constructed.  My old brush lasted several years but wood handle started to &#34;blacken&#34; from water and soften up so hoping that this handle will last a long time.  Nicer quality of hair than my old brush and like the slight rounded shape of bristles.  Very surprised by the quality for the price.
