Is this normal for a new boar bristle brush?

Hi, I’m new to the wet shaving community and I just got this new Omega boar bristle brush from glow shines.
Is it normal for a new boar brush to “flower” like this after use or did I do something wrong? I did not put any pressure while using it. Just lathered it in a bowl by swirling it and just put it on my stubble.
