    Hehehe Doc and his lather king stuff....
    First, there are many ways to make lather, and some of these have already been shown above....
    Keep in mind that there are very few real variables in making any type of lather....
    The brush
    The amount of water
    The soap
    And to a way lesser extent the container....

    If yer still having problems after watching those great vids.....List what yer using, and we'll go from there...
    Keep in mind that it is called LATHER for a reason, this is not sudsy shower lather we are talking about here, this should end up with an almost whipped cream constancy when it's ready a thick, rich, cushion, for the edge to glide on....
