I shaved yesterday with Wholly Kaw. I loaded up my SOC boar pretty aggressively, and lathered on my dripping wet face.
The lather was very much thicker than I thought it would be. I tried dipping the end of the brush in a bit of water and working that in, but it only seemed to marginally thin it. A bit of more water, and no improvement, then a third visit to the water collapsed the lather into running suds...
Loaded some more soap on the brush, and the lather was very much like when I first loaded. It seemed to rinse off the razor pretty easily, and didn't feel sticky or dry. It was slick, but unnervingly "goo-ey" and thick.
I like the post shave feel, and maybe this is just the way it's supposed to be, but I have myself wondering if I am using this stuff right.
