Q: Does the brush snap back well?

It depends on size but I’d mainly say it’s more like a natural hair brush. It returns to a great point with water, but no real snap back especially with larger sizes.

Q: Does it have natural hair?

Soft Aqua brushes have a newly designed synthetic hair, which due to micro wavelike structure has a greater water holding than the best squirrel hair. They are a superb brush ,hold shape and can stand upto vigourous use without hair breaking or coming loose. Excellent value alternative to topline squirrel.

Q: What size round brush is this closely equivalent to?

That is a hard question to answer as there is nothing specifically to compare and all brushes are not alike. The best guess is to take measurements kindly provided by Amazon Customer in the only other answer here and I quote "Tip to end is 7 inches. Brush is about 3/4 inch long. Ferule slightly longer. Brush width slightly under 1/2 inch". Take the round brush you are comparing to and measure to get an idea of size. A mop brush also varies from company to company. What I do know for sure is that this brand is relatively smaller than a customer not accustomed to them might imagine from their images. For instance, my Soft Aqua travel mop 1795 by Raphael is a 3/0, 6.4mm wide, and 19mm long which is fairly small. To eyeball it I'd say it's a size 4 round but again this is a only a guess based on other size 4 rounds I happen to have and they range in size from different companies in a variety of materials from Kolinsky sable to synthetic. If you look at the Raphael SoftAqua travel set they offer a round in size 6 but I'd consider it more a size 2 in any other brand I have. This is why I only bought their travel quill from that set. I have more use for it as it's like a size 6 in actual size compared to my other brushes. Beyond that, it's nicely put together, keeps it's shape, has a fine tip, and holds water as good if not better than organic hair brushes so I recommend it on that alone. As to durability I don't know yet but it seems to be holding up nicely, but I also take proper care of my brushes. I hope this information is of help to someone.
