Glad I could help in a small way. Thanks for the kind words.I've been having less than par shaves and as a newb, I went back to the stickies. Thanks Bruce! I am refocused and reenergized!
I think there is an optimum, with maybe a wide latitude, but it is true that there can be different ways to get there, and a person needs to find their lather. Good post.
Number 10 is the key. Lots of times lather can look great but completely lack substance. Besides, the lather from various soaps and creams looks different from each other when they have reached their peak consistency. No two soaps are the same in this regard.
If it works for you great. If I personally have to lather a soap upside down or sideways, I'll use a different soap.You can get a better lather more quickly by getting more water to stay in the center of the shaving brush. One way to do that is to hold the brush so the bristles are sideways or upright.
I generally try to stay upright on my feet... If I personally have to lather a soap upside down or sideways, ...
Very well written. This should be mandatory reading for new wet shavers.
Instead, try mashing potatoes.Thank you. I will stop mashing my brush
