Addendum:
Meanwhile I got the brush more than half a year has passed and can draw a better conclusion. As other buyers written before me lose the brush with me every now and then one or two hair is, but overall still frayed ok and not too strong. At its qualities for foam whipping he has lost nothing. Also about the smell over which some have so omitted here, I could not find anything negative. In the brush is more than the most pleasant smell of my shaving holds.
