Ahhh, how I remember bath and bedtime routine with the kids!
My youngest turned 12 today.
Enjoy this time with them it goes by too fast...correction FIGHT for this time with them.
That really helps to put it all in perspective.
Priorities in place, I'll look to read from you MUCH later.
Good luck Sir.Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietum servitium

When U got a 3 year old son and a 4 year old daughter that your raising by yourself you don't have enough free time ( any time your not getting something they want or doing things they need) to realize how fast the time does go by. I swear I have had 1 hamburger today and the time I've taken to post on SRP today and that's all the "free time" I've had. IM on the run from daylight to dark and then some. A member without children doesn't realize you literally can't walk into a restroom without hearing the knob jiggle followed by "Daddy" 10 seconds after shutting the door.
But I can't complain too much I love them to death.Thank you,

Sorry it's been a long while over 3hrs but here's my findings.
IM gonna call the VDH luxury (the one that's scented) VDH-W. And the VDH premium (unscented) VDH-P.
Ok the VDH-W normal took just under 3 min to get dry. And when I made the lather wetter it took 3 min 20 sec give or take 5 sec.
VDH-P Regular was close to 3 min 15 sec. VDH-P Wetter 3 min 40 secThank you,

Soap and pre-shave questions
Swerve that's fine.
Well, my suggestion didn't extend the time appreciably.
About 3 1/2 almost 4 minutes a pass...
I guess you should take a look at changing soaps In Accordance With some of the other suggestions.
Either that or shave faster
Good luck!Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietum servitium

My lather dries out too - but I think I am making the lather too dry to start because I my history with my DE. I have read that your lather should be runnier and wetter for straight shaving.

When I normally make my lather I will create a too wet lather (with a few bigger bubbles) and then I will keep working the lather until it is consistent (with no big bubbles). Then apply
Thank you,
