Thread: The Perfect Lather

Filling the sink two times seems like a big waste of a natural resource to me. Got excellent lather with less than lets say... 100ml of water, maybe less. Just a little reminder that it's not infinite.

So.....

That sink that you're floating your lovely shave brush in....is that the same sink that the family uses to spit in after brushing their teeth? Or wash their hands in after taking care of business on the throne?

I have never taken to the idea of making use of the sink as a hot water recepticle for the above reasons.

Actually I suppose it's the same sink that I wash my hands and brush my teeth in. However, I do usually give it a good wipe down and rinse before shaving. To each their own I guess. Anyway, my hands stay fairly clean!

Initially, I was using a small bowl in a big bowl of hot water but that only kept the lather warm. This way, with a big sink full of hot water and a smallish mug, the lather actually gets hot between shaves - it's great in winter!
