Yaqi Synthetic Shaving Brush, Cola Handle

Cool looking handle. Good feel on the face . All of Yaqi brushes seem to feel great. Wanted to try a smaller knot. Works well and gives you some room to work . Highly recommend.

The Yaqi Cola synthetic is a bit different. Shaped like a Coke bottle, it immediately evokes that classic shape and appeals on a nostalgic level. However, unlike many of the Yaqi and WCS synthetics (as in, "big and bushy"), this one is slightly taller and has a narrower body and knot (22). This results in a brush that looks smaller than its pictures would suggest. That isn't a problem for me as it still looks and feels distinctive. To be honest, I don't see the Yaqi Cola as a "daily driver" given it's size and coverage (although the knot feels fine on the face) but I like the way it looks. The Cola brush often seems to be "out-of-stock", but at $14 it's worth waiting for if you have a nostalgic itch...
