    Agreed. I think thats the best advice. Practice with one soap and one brush until you find what it takes to get good lather with those before changing to other brushes or soaps. I know its hard to use just one, and i was really had about this myself. I could use just one. And it took me much longer to gain the experiance needed to know my equipment.

    Practice and practice some more. Its sounds odd to practice making lather but it really is needed to have exactly what you want in lather. And all soaps act different!

    Thank you to all for the advice. I do believe these thread has very likely "shaved" a significant amount of time off of my learning curve.

    Kyleybob,

    You might Google: lynn abrams making lather

    He has a bunch of videos on making good lather with different brushes and methods. This can really shorten your learning curve.

    Anytime I want to learn something about shaving I Google the topic with Lynn's name. I like him because he is very competent and doesn't say anything unless it is correct.

    It has been noted, sir. I'm giving it a search now.
