Thread: Making Lather

Don’t do your first shaves on the way to work. It’s going to take more time than you are expecting if you are going to do it safely. Do it when you have time to give this process the proper attention and enjoy it. You are apt to get a few cuts, no use worrying about explaining them all day. When you start to lather, soak the brush in hot water for a few minutes, so your brush does not soak up water and leave you wondering where the water went. I keep my soap puck in a mug and later with it in that mug. Others put a small amount of soap in a different mug to lather, or lather on their face. “There are many ways to skin a cat!” Otherwise, just jump in, swirl the brush around on the soap, and see what happens. You will pick up on it quickly.
