Thread: Perfect lathering bowl for 3.99

Hello, Pabster:

To give you an update on my lathering bowl, after using it for a few weeks, I must say this:

I love it.

You'll find no better lathering bowl for that price.

Regards,
Obie

Don't forget to check out your local Goodwill, too. To this date, my lathering bowl is one I got for 50 cents. It was so good I splurged and got a backup.

You are right that the ridges make a difference. My favorite bowl is similar, but was made by a art student at a local university. It looks like it's supposed to be a fish curled up with it's scales raised on the bottom of the bowl. Talk about making quick lather. Looks like I need to make a trip to target to check these ones out.

That is really a nice looking lather bowl.

I am going to have to stop by Target and pick one up.

Thanks for posting your find.

Perfect lathering bowl for 3.99

Ah! My shaving bowl is a big breakfast bowl that I got in my local supermarket for 1.50 Euros. Try and beat that! OK, it's plain black, not as fancy as yours

LOL, I just bought that at Target myself!

I saw them in a stack near some serving platters and immediately went for it. It just set off my radar I guess.

It's labeled as a "Dip bowl" but it did a fantastic job with some Proraso last night.

Yep, Im loving it more and more i use it, not bad for 4 bucks, now i just have to find a new shelf or cabinet to house all my scuttles/bowls. Why does variety have to be the spice of life?

Had to get 2 - hard to beat that price. Why 2? My son is 12 and he's already asking about SR shaving. Who knows when the testosterone will kick in. As a Boy Scout he's been taught "Be Prepared".

Here's what I use. It's a rice bowl from my local Asian grocery store. It has a narrow stem that fits between my fingers perfectly almost as if it were made for lathering. I paid about .99 for one very much like this:

was able to grab one at target - decent for the price - I'm a face latherer but ya never know when that will change

thanks for the tip
