Hi Paul:  That is what I used to think.  However... when I incorporated a shaving brush in my routine, it boosted my shaving routine to an even higher level.

I have a brush that was issued to my father by the US Army during the second world war.  It is getting a little short, but I still use it from time to time.

I recently ordered a  Parker 100% Silvertip Badger Bristle Shaving Brush with Faux Petrified Wood Handle and expect delivery tomorrow.  I'll take a picture of both of them and post it later.

I have tried many brushes over the years.  Simpson, Shavemac, Vulfix, Rooney, just to name a few.  It really all boils down to personal preference in the end.  Every manufacturer uses different hair weathe badger or boar.  Some use softer tips, some have more backbone (stiffer hair), some pack the hair more dense in the knot, and tons of other variables. 

I cannot imagine shaving my face or head without a brush. It is just meant to be.

My personal favorites on my face and head are:

Saville Row for badger.
Semogue for boar.

I'm not sure what type of brush I use, it cost me about 5 bucks. But what I can say is that it enhanced my shaving expierence. A big plus for using one is definetely the fact that there's always enough lather for second, third passes or even for shaving your face by adding just a few drops of water.
