Review title is bad quality, not 100% boar bristle, and possibly received a used brush!!! [SEP] this product is not as described in the description. as others have said, most of the bristles are nylon and not actual boar bristle. the brush i received doesn't even come in a box as others have said and came in a generic plastic bag with a sticker label on it. the brush itself appears to be used because the handle of the brush has a lot of dents in it and scratches. the brush itself had a lot of weirdly long bristles that would stick out and it looked like the brush may have been used before. this brush also smells awful like chemicals and i am returning this product. not sure where others have purchased their brush from but i got mine from Gran Goods and it appears they might be selling used brushes with the fake bristles. buyer beware!
