Introduction
The following is a guide and suggestions for the foundation for a great lather, posted by Jim[1].
This tutorial was developed by a group of B&B members in collaboration. A team of struggling new wetshavers worked with more experienced members to learn how to make great lathers with a variety of soaps. They documented their progress--triumphs and setbacks--and developed the method shown below. This method of lather making is not the only way to get to a great shave. It is however in our collective experience the simplest and easiest to communicate through our chosen medium. We hope with this we can get our new lathermeisters on the fast track to great shaves. Enjoy!
