Omega Evo Silversynth Marble Ego

Omega (https://www.omegabrush.com/?lang=en) is an Italian company that is most well known for their shaving brushes and painting brushes. The company was established in 1931 and began as a manufacturer of bristles only before expanding their production to complete brushes. The company now has a world wide reputation for providing high quality wet shaving brushes and in addition to direct buys from their website, Omega has a list of stockists the rivals any company in wet shaving.

Omega Evo Silversynth aims to provide a feel that is close to natural hair brushes, specifically a badger brush. The Evo Silversynth fibers are extremely similar if not identical to the synthetic fibers used by other world wide grooming companies, most notably Muhle STF v2 and Edwin Jagger Synthetic Silver Tip. The Evo Silversyth tufts boast an extremely technical weave which allow the brush to retain water in the knot in a similar fashion to that of a natural badger brush. The handle is made of marble effect resin and the height of the handle is 55 mm with the loft of the knot set at 55 mm, also. The brush weighs 100 gr dry.

I have been impressed by the sensation of the Omega Evo Silversynth when using it for both face and dome lathers. While nothing synthetic feels exactly like natural hair brushes, the Omega Evo Silversynth comes as close as I have experienced. Much like the Muhle STF v2 and Edwin Jagger Synthetic Silver Tip, this brush is of medium density and the tips are very soft. The backbone is in the middle for me. The spring of these fibers are where you can tell the brush is not natural. The pressure to splay the brush has an unnatural “spring” to it that will take some getting used to. In terms of overall experience though, this brush provides a luxury feeling with the consistency and durability of synthetic fiber brushes.
