I love the Chinese brushes I have accumulated over the years. I have experimented and have found they stopped shedding hair after I glued them in with Super Glue. I let the hairs dry out completely first and stuck the tip of the glue down into the base of the hair and squeezed a bit in and the let it dry. Surprisingly, they are fine! Even the really cheap bamboo with goat hair that several were glued together to make a wide brush stopped shedding. Super Glue... cyrano something.

Oh that's a game changer! I am going to try! Thanks so much for sharing

@@irishfarmart We have Dollar Tree stores where I can buy the stuff inexpensively. I would make sure to keep the bristles up when you are letting it cure, to keep it down where it belongs. Oh, and always keep your super glue standing up, too. It lasts MUCH longer then!

Cyanoacrylate glue...

@maximme 9 месяцев назад

yes, I tried that. It helped to a degree. Then I wonder what stops them from using better glue in the first place...

That's cool, Ive seen shodo teachers do the same and also they tie a string around for an extra step to prevent the loss of strands.

I tried chinese brushes and while they paint really well, the hair shedding is on a whole new level. Even my cheapest watercolor brushes from Temu don't shed any hair, but these chinese ones shed hair like crazy. First I thought that this was maybe only happening when first time using them and that it would stop after a while. But it didn't. So I stopped using them entirely and went back to my regular watercolor brushes. This level of hair shedding is an absolute no-go.

@irishfarmart 8 месяцев назад

That’s true, I found that if you let them sit in water for a few days, they reduce a lot the amount of shedding

the tiny brush are great for DRY BRUSHING. give it a go. My biggest complaint with chinese brush in general is Hair Shedding and the VAST inconsistent quality. PRICE is NOT an indication of quality. Some cheap brush works very well while some expensive brush shed hair like no tomorrow.

@irishfarmart 9 месяцев назад

100% agree with you! I am really bad at expensive brushes, I find that inexpensive escoda for example work wonders

@maximme 9 месяцев назад

@@irishfarmart "inexpensive escoda" ...isn't that an oxymoron? I never seen an inexpensive escoda. hahaaaa

@irishfarmart 9 месяцев назад

@@maximme ahahah well I buy usually the Perla range or the versatile. Compared to other brands they are really affordable, but yes, probably inexpensive is not the right word here

I have tried many calligraphy brushes and have yet to find one that performs as well as good watercolor brushes. Most are too soft for me. Yes, they hold water because they are real animal hair-and who knows which animal they are from? The term "wolf" is used to cover a variety of animal hairs used in Chinese brushes. I don't want to support exploiting animals like that, and there is a whole industry based on making cheap brushes for the western market.

This is a fair point…made mi realise how unaware I have been. Thank you so much for raising the issue
