New Shavemac—Too big for its own good?
Hi Guys!
I just splurged on a new Shavemac 28mm. It is truly a fantastic brush, but it seems that it holds TOO much water and has completely thrown off my lathering technique. I used to be able to get a very good lather together in my mug (I typically use Trumper's creams) with only a thumbnail sized amount. But after soaking this brush, it dilutes the cream too much and becomes completely unusable.
Should I just be shaking more water out of the brush before I lather? I've heard some people say not to shake any water out, but that clearly isn't working.
Maybe I should just go back to a smaller brush? :shrug:
