Six days a week I bowl lather creams.
On Sunday's I've tried the hard soap every week for six months or so.
I don't get very much or very thick lather, must be doing something wrong.
I've got a Sandalwood Art of Shaving soap in a lovely wooden bowl.
I put some water on the puck for 5-10 minutes.
Then squeeze out my brush (currently trying a boar hair).
Scrub circles back and forth and really try to load up that proto-lather.
Move over to my regular lather bowl and try to finish it up.
Starts out dryish and I slowly add water.
It gets up to a fairly week lather and then more water turns it to garbage.
I've really tried to get lots of soap into the brush but I get little return compared to my creams
What am I missing? .... are there magic words I don't know?
Thanks,
Curt
