Brushes: Bloomed vs "New"

I always liked leaving them bloomed and I actually use the bloom for measurements on what I call "bloom width" and "canopy height". If it's in that new position, you can't get as good of an idea of the density. I love how much these long lofted and dense brushes widen out. They have to feel so nice on the face to lather with. Nice post John and do it your way!

I also keep my brushes in their pouch, kind of like the way they look as new when you go and use them. I can see I am not alone on this!
