    I added a bit of CA (Super-glue) to the sticker when attaching it.
    Seems to work great

    Nah, it wouldn't affect the brush, but it affects the aesthetics

    Not long ago, The Art of Shaving used to sell Plisson brushes without the sticker. It didn't matter, but there were some who still ordered in stickers to add to their brush because it's just nice to have.

    You can take some clear nail polish protector and put a coat over the label for protection.

    Off topic, but that's exactly what I had in mind, when reading the Thater group buy thread, to protect the Thater logo. Nail polish is cheaper than laser etching, or ordering stickers for that matter.

    I normally cover my existing stickers with a thin layer of CA. When I replace then, I add some under it, then cover it with another thin layer once it is fastened properly

    I recently got one of their limited edition brushes in horn and it arrived with the sticker half crooked and the other half falling off. I just removed it and polished where it was a bit looks better without it in my opinion. Nice brush but you would expect better quality for such a price.

    The super glue chemicals may not be compatible with Plisson handles in genuine horn or plexiglass and may harm them.
