OK guys I'm fully on board now. Until this morning I had trouble getting a good lather. I won't bore you with the details of that. Anyway, I had a little extra time this morning so I got out my well-soaked puck and immersed it while I showered. Drained it, scraped the puck on my face like a stick then loaded my brush (Burma Shave, $4.45+tax, awesome boar) for about 45 seconds. Bowl lathered and didn't stint on the water. It was a GREAT lather! Usually when I tried Williams I got a thin lather that faded before I could complete a pass. But this time I guess I got enough hydration and loading that it was just awesome. I totally get it now. And it's a buck. Amazing. Anyway, Williams, cheap brush, Merkur 34c...two passes and a touch up and I got a terrific shave. Finished with AV Ice Blue and had great morning.
WISE indeed.
Cheers!
