I have owned one of the chrome plated varieties for years. I purchased it off Ebay. I agree with most of the posters, I usually prefer a stick and brush or lather shaving cream and brush. However, it is a nice treat to have the warm lather, so I uses it once in a while.
Does anyone know when it was invented? I also have a black hot lather machine, which uses bar soap. Does anyone know about this machine?
Thanks!
My fondest memory of haircuts when I was a kid was hearing the "whirr" of the lather machine and feeling the warm lather being spread behind my ears. It also felt great when the barber shaved that area. I probably haven't experienced that since before 1970.
I'm curious, does anybody try to apply lather behind the ears and around the nape of the neck and try to shave themselves? Sounds dangerous!
