Sheds too much - Great customer service
I am not a fan of this brush.  I used it for about 2 months then replaced it.  I like the way the brush whips up the shave soaps.  I do not like the way it sheds.  Shaving brushes are not supposed to shed on every use.  The brush leaves bristles in my shaving cream and on my face.  I put it in my kids bathroom and they have not complained yet.  Either they don't use it or they don't mind the shedding.<br /><br />Edit - I posted my 3 star review (above) on a whim.  Adam, the owner of Latherwhip, was very concerned about the shedding issue and gave me a refund after I told him that I did not mind the problem and it was good enough.  He went through the effort to find me after my post and make things right and he does not accept good enough.  He sent me two emails on Christmas day to do his best.  You can't beat this level of customer service.  I am going to give the brush another try.  Hopefully, I will follow up with my results.  If you are the fence about this product, give it try, the customer service is excellent.<br /><br />12/28/15 - Received my new brush today and gave it a try.  I gave the gold level treatment.  I soaked it in hot water along with pre-shave oil, a mixing bowel and a tube of Bigelow shave cream.  The brand new brush left a few small bristles in the mixing bowel, as expected.  I did not get any bristles on my face.  So far so good.  I will give the brush a thorough try and hopefully it will not shed.  I have to admit the fact that I like a new brush.  I don't need a new brush but I still like them.  This brush just feels good on my face.
