I have a skunk brush from coastalscents.com, I think it was like $12 or something like that. I know quite a few people have expressed concern about it being so cheap, leeching dyes and shedding, but I've had mine for several months now. After several washes it's held up nicely, it still performs like new. I've had both hits and misses with the company. But if it does degrade on you, you will definitely not be out of a lot of money.
