$150. Pick-up from Johnsonville.

Simpson's "Major" Best Badger shaving brush. Designed for travelling, but perfect for daily use at home too.

Bought in Australia in 2017 at AUD 220. The brush is currently going for GBP 92.80 (about NZD 190) on Simpson's official site, and USD 146.99 (around NZD 223) on West Coast Shaving's website, a popular male grooming product vendor in the US.

The brush is in excellent condition. The reason for selling it, is that I have become used to the brushes with synthetic fibres.

Pre-owned shaving brushes are not necessarily inferior to the new ones. Just like painting brushes, the performance gets better and reaches full potential with uses, this process is known as break-in. The brush is fully broken in, only received occasional use (around 3 to 5 uses per month) during the first year of purchase. The brush has been well cared for with regular cleaning and conditioning, even being unused for the past 4 years.

Simpson's shaving brushes are widely regarded & acknowledged as being the finest in the world. Some popular models such as "Duke" and "Chubby" are available in New Zealand, ranging from NZD 160 to 300, this model of "Major" is still nowhere to be found here to date.

Specifications:
Overall brush height - 116mm (Screwed together as a brush)
Handle height - 78mm
Knot loft - 38mm
Knot diameter - 17mm
Weight - 82g

Style trends you need to know about for 2022

The 22 interior trends we’ll be seeing everywhere this year

1. Taste of Morocco
Warm saturated colour palettes, oodles of texture and intricate detailing are inspirations drawn from the North African nation. Rebecca Jones, design manager for Adairs, says to look out for Moroccan textiles and textural embroidery. Team them with decorative tiling, intricate lantern pendants and bright clashing colours to immerse yourself in this beautifully opulent style.

2. Cuddle in
“Plump styled interiors are squishy, cuddly and comforting,” says Laura Heynike, director of Pocketspace Interiors. Think round, curvy and wavy shapes with soft and organic materials in hues of mellow caramel, raspberry and chocolate. Davina Harper, Dulux colour specialist agrees, “Interiors are rich and sensual with essential depth. A decadent look reflects our mood since the pandemic with hyper-feminine aspects in curves and sumptuous materials.”

3. Finger tiles
You might know them by their other name; Kit Kat tiles. This style of tile, slim and petite, adds colour and texture to a space without overpowering it. Prepare to see many more of these on kitchen splashbacks or in the bathroom.

4. Home office
“Work from home is here to stay, in some way, shape or form,” says Dulux’s Davina Harper. So, expect to see the WFH office go from a small desk squished awkwardly in the corner of the living room, to a dedicated workspace with colour, and style to ensure the right mood and ambience for a proper nine-to-five slog.

A young refugee will train among New Zealand’s best up-and-coming footballers just months after fleeing war-torn Afghanistan.
Fahima​ Yousofi’s​ tutors from the English Teaching College in Lower Hutt put in a call to the Wellington Phoenix after she revealed her talent at a school picnic. From February, Yousofi will begin training with the club’s academy team.
Yousofi, who played football in Afghanistan to a high level, is pleased she will be playing football again. She arrived in New Zealand in September – around the time the air force was making mercy flights to and from the Afghan capital – with her family. Members of her extended family had already settled in New Zealand.
