Another happy day of face lathering with my monster sized omega boar 20106 brush today!!!! I love that huge pig brush massaging my whiskers!!!!
Count me in gents...I am a die hard, 100% face latherer...yes, I admit it and very proud of it! 
Anything other than face lathering is a waste of a great brush and fine shaving soap. Haven't touched a lather bowl in well over a year. I'm in!
It really doesn't make sense to use a bowl, why get a nice brush that feels great on your face and then go and allow this brush to have more contact with the inside of a bowl or scuttle (brush scuttles ok). My brushes only come in contact with my face (head, hand, soap, cream, water, and towel) but never a bowl!

I agree - I saw the light recently and now only use my newly acquired scuttle as a brush scuttle.
This is very much to my own approach as well, therefore I would like to also submit my application to the B&B FLC United.
In fact I only recently sold my various scuttles although I have not used them in over 2 years.
PS: should we have a signature tag line as well, such as "The B&B Face Latherers Club United"?

We have! TOFLAC-U (The Official Face Lather Club - United).
I'm in. I slowly found myself face lathering more & more over the last few months. I enjoy it quite a bit more than bowl lathers 
For those of you who have joined the group, I have started a discussion on face lathering brush of the day. I'm curious as to what the preferred tool of the trade is
Loving my omega 20106 boar, she's breaking in nicely for face lathering!!! Only problem is, I want BIGGER!!! 
How about a Pro 49 or a Vie Long professional?
I have numerous restored vintage brush handles with TGN Finest Badger knots. ranging in size from 18mm diameter to 22mm, both bulb and fan-shaped and set to a loft anywhere between 45mm to 50mm. All are awesome face-lathering brushes. I end up using a different one every day, depending on my mood and which handle strikes my fancy. I honestly can't pick a favorite because they're like children....I love them all!
As a "late-adopter" (third face lather ever today) I can honestly say it's more thoroughly enjoyable and builds a quality lather quicker than a bowl. The turning point was using a crappy little brush with ridiculously short loft to give Cella one last chance.
Go figure.
Go figure.
Pro 49 would make a wonderful face latherers brush!!
I am in love with the B&B 2011 LE fan knot right now. The face feel is amazing. I'm working through trying my new Razorock soaps. Today was Bee's Knees.
