Is this durable? The problem my current brush has (different brand) is that every time i use it I'm badger hair falls out onto my face.

I've used about ten times, & after the third time, it started loosing hairs, I haven't seen it loose anymore hairs as of lately, I like the brush.

It's too new to see if durable but I brushed the brush with my hand and seems that got out all the loose hair

At the start a couple of bristles came off. Only had it for a short time. So far so good.

I've only had it a few days and used it three times but no hairs have fallen out so far!

I have had this brush for almost a year now. I take care of it, meaning I rinse it out very well after each use and allow it to hang on a brush/razor stand after each use. It is just now starting to show some solid wear and I am planning on ordering another one. I highly suggest this brush for longevity.

I get the occasional badger hair that falls off...but pretty rare...it seems quite durable to me.

No, no trouble with mine. I've had my 1/2 in, Helen of Troy curling brush for about two years, and my 3/4 in. about 5 months with no problems. Maybe they've started using a new formula plastic for the brush bristles or you got a lemon. Bummer. Complain, return?? Not normal in my limited experience.

I've only used it twice. I suppose I should use it more often but I don't. So far it is performing beautifully but I can't vouch for a longer term or harder use. You may be right about the bristles wearing quickly.

No. I did not have any problems. But make sure the brush head is on. If it is not pushed in correctly it will not work.

I don't under stand your question? Did you buy this and the brush is shedding???

This is Parker's premiere Pure Badger brush, and a quality badger brush should last for years. The better the brush's quality, the longer it will last. The better the brush is cared for, the longer it will last. Like a fine Kent brush (costing 6 to 10 times as much), this Parker can easily provide you with a luxurious morning shave for about a decade. If you don't treat it well.. five years is all you're going to get, at best. So, protect your investment: 1) Use it for the first two to three weeks with WARM water (NOT HOT) so it can fully bloom.. go to hot once the bloom is finished. 2) Always rinse it out and then hang it to dry in the stand. 3) Use a good soap, not a facial cleanser.. those cleansers will wreck the bristles. Stick to a nice Parker or Col. Conk, or a Proraso shave soap. 4) ALWAYS use a brush tube when you travel... but don't leave the brush in the tube longer than is absolutely necessary. ... do those things.. and you'll have this brush next to your sink for a long time before you need to think about a replacement.

So sorry to hear you have bristles falling out! We have had our brush since Christmas and it's held up great!

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond - I haven't been near my computer - I have a brush thats 2.5 x 5 inches, and its a supremely tight fit at 1 and 1/16" at the thinnest part of the brush, so you need to use a brush that has that diameter at the absolute max, 1 inch diameter would fit a lot more safely. If you don't have a brush with a nice finish, you can wedge 1 1/16" in there, but my brush is already getting the finish scratched. (SimplyBeautiful Basic 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush.)

I find that putting the brush in handle fist that the brush slides right in. Also with the brittles wet when I place it in the case it slides right back out the next morning with no damage to my boar bristle brush.

bristles are hard plastic, so no I don't have trouble with it getting tangled in my hair. The cord doesn't rotate easily (maybe because it is new), so I have had some trouble with it getting tangled and twisted.

I've had the Shark for a few months and I have not experienced that. On the contrary, it handles hair very well. I have a black lab-shepers mix.

I have been using this brush for over two years and have never noticed any shedding of the bristles...very durable.

Hello Natasha,I have only owned this brush for about six months. I do use it everyday and have found no degradation in the bristles. It works great and I have seen a distinct improvement in the overall condition of my skin. I would imagine that this brush should last at least a couple more years. In either event it is worth the cost.

Well the hairs on the brush will fall out definitely. But I've had mine for a few weeks now and everything else seems perfect.

I would suggest you replace the brush as often as you replace your toothbrush.If you are using this as a dry brush you will be able to enjoy the benefits longer than as wet. If you are using it wet then you will definitely see signs of built up residue on the bristles at the baseline after a short time. Enjoy!

I just recently purchased the brush, so I haven't had to change it yet. They recommend changing it every three months.

From day one, Mine came apart (The handle can come out) However, I does not use my frush anymore since my brush did not agree with my skin - IT BROKE-OUT MY SKIN and left me with several severed scars on my feet. I am still trying to get rid of them!
