Thread: Lather or suds?

I started out with the classicshaving soap too, have found some other glycerine based soaps since then that I like much better but the CS soap is certainly capable of better results than you've been getting.

You'll probably see much better lather if you work that brush on the puck longer than you have been - at least that's what worked for me when I had problems lathering with that soap. The exact technique will vary somewhat depending on the brush you use, but I have to suggest that you need (a lot) more soap and not necessarily less water.

Treat yourself to some Mama Bear, TABAC, T&H, Goldman-Dachs, or other premium soap when that CS puck is used up.

Thanks all,

I was able to get a good lather from my soap this morning. As it turns out I have not been working it enough. I used my silver tip and even with the soft bristles I was able to get a great, almost pasty, lather.

Best shave I have had in weeks.
