I have been having trouble with my lather for the first month of wet shaving, but yesterday I finally figured it out. I reviewed mantic59's youtube videos, and noticed he was splaying out the hairs of his brush on his face when he was lathering. I did as he was doing and to my surprise, a full lather emerged. Enough for 3 passes and touch-up. I still have to get bowl lathering down, but at least I can now do a sufficient face lathering.
Question about blades now. I've gone through half my blades in my sampler pack, and I was wondering if I should go back and try the other blades again and compare them against my favorite when I'm done going through all the blades? I'm thinking I should since my technique is improving.
