Not worth the Premium price.
I purchased this item in early January.  I waited a couple of months to review to see how it performed with a bit of age.  Unfortunately, it is shedding hair just like the less expensive brushes.  I bought this thinking that it would last longer for the additional expense.  The seller gave tips on how to prepare the brush, but the product itself is on par with the under $10 products available on Amazon.  I am disappointed with the product and think there is a replacement offer if one is not satisfied.  That said, I did not save the seller's email so do not have a way to contact him.  Sometimes, you don't get what you pay for.
