Greeting Fellow Den mates.....I just wanted to write a quick not about my recent experience with Whipped Dog Brushes manufacturer Larry Andreassen. I sent a note to Mr. Andreassen with some questions and concerns for a brush required to meet some very unique difficulties I have shaving. To be specific, my recent treatment for Cancer has left me with a hair, both facial and cranial that is the consistent with steel wire. My previous brushes were adequate but I needed to learn how to best deal with this new follicular challenge. He was very thorough in asking me questions about what prep I use, what razor, cream or soap.......a plethora of questions all pertaining to my issue. Wow I thought, this is not your normal experience when ordering a brush. They usually just take your order no questions asked. With queries answered and a new education as to the hows and whys, I ordered a 30mm brush. I'm a big man and need to do the head and the face. The brush is a Black on Black Badger and looks amazing! I followed instructions on prepping the brush and anxiously awaited my first shave. Well I can tell you this, the brush without a doubt is the BEST brush I own and at a remarkable price! The brush is TAILORED to MY needs, not just a brush for the masses. The brush loads quickly and has enough loft and backbone to not only exfoliate properly but to produce a very slick and properly consistent lather. The difference in performance between my previous brushes and this is night and day! I can only compare it to purchasing a suit off the rack and trying to fit it to my frame of very large shoulders and small waist. I'd look like a clown! This is a custom brush, tailored to fit me and my needs perfectly! One can not appreciate the difference UNLESS they experience it! Without a doubt or hesitation, I recommend Whipped Dog Brushes for ANYONE wanting an experience above par! I love my Whipped Dog Brush! I suggest you contact Mr. Andreassen quickly so you too can experience for yourself what a Properly Tailored shaving brush experience is. You Won't be disappointed! Thank You Sir for producing a wonder product!
I took the time to forward this podt to Larry. I think he will be very happy to see it. Congrats on your enjoyment with your WD Brush. I have one too and they are the best.
I sent Larry @ Whipped Dog the post by the OP, and this is his reply I received this e-mail from Larry @ Whipped Dog I feel that I should share it with all of you.

The second reason is that my wife has breast cancer with some metastasis to other organs. You have cancer also. My prayers are with you, and I am sure your prayers and concern will be with us also. Be strong! Be weak also at therapeutic times and ways. Thanks for a cheering letter. Larry
