as a relatively new wet shaver I am feeling my way through the soap/lather conundrum. I have been using fairly soft soaps up to this point but recently due to an extremely generous pif from another member I now have a few sticks and a hard pick or two. I have been placing a small amount of the soft soap in my bowl and then using it for making my lather. Should I be doing it differently or how would I go about using the sticks in my bowl and the pucks would seem to me that I would be stuck using the same one until it was gone this way.
