I'm presently using a Semogue 2,000 (boar brush).
I have a cheap badger brush that lathers nicely but sheds hairs like crazy.

My brother in law just gave me a badger hair brush, he said it cost £50! No way I'd spend that, turns out he is into de shaving in a big way, and I never new! I happen to mention that I was waiting on some blades and he asked what for, he has around 6 De's from antique to brand new, I ended up with a new brush, bowl with lid, 50 blades and some homemade shaving cream...result lol

I just received my Omega 10049 boar brush that I got off ebay (dealer in Turkey) for less than $15 delivered to Jamaica, oh my god
this this is incredible. I just used it for the first time today and it felt incredible on my face and head.

Prior to winning the Shaving kit in Mike Koz's Scotty's Ride Contest, I was using a brush that came free with the purchase of Bump Patrol (at WalMart). The badger brush in this kit blows that brush away. Great lather....The key to making any brush last longer is to rinse it thoroughly and hang it upside down. A DE razor stand, bought or homemade should help with that.

I have a cheap van der Hagen that served the purpose until I got a better brush.I also have a Casswell Massey badger brush that I was gifted after someone seen my shave set on the sink.. It does shed a little but makes a great lather..

I have been wet shaving since 2006 and my favorite brush is a Savile Row SR 204 badger for which I think I paid $50. My first brush was an Omega boar that I bought at Target for less than $10.

I have owned quite a few brushes and some of my favorites are:
For face lathering...the Semogue 1305. Great backbone for lathering those hard to lather soaps.
For bowl lathering...An inexpensive Whipped Dog 24mm SilverTip with a 50mm loft, coupled with a firehouse handle.

I gave my vdh boar brushes to new wet shavers I work with.
I have a few Simpsons and a couple of brushes I got in AOS kits that are working fine for me.
I plan to add to the brush collection eventually, but I just haven't settled on what I want to try next...

I had a Semogue 2,000 that was excellent but I gifted it to my brother in law to get him into wet shaving.
Currently I have a Tweezerman badger brush and a silvertip badger brush by simply beautiful.
I've very pleased with my Silvertip brush so I don't really intend to buy another brush unless mine dies.
