My baby FB 58 original platingSay, that's a nice looking Razor and not a bad cream either
My first try yesterday didn’t go that well. There was just not much to the lather, I think that I underloaded the brush. I added some more soap before 2nd pass, which helped a bit.
Great advice.I use around a brazil nuts worth of lather with mystic waters soap which is twice what I would normally use (Around an almonds worth of all other soaps). About 1/4 of that sample tub I sent you, 2.5 grams or thereabouts as a quantity for a generous 3 pass shave.
Stay on the puck and add the water there...do it until the lather on the puck is to your licking (shave ready) - then go to your face and hydrate the lather that is in the brush...Cheers for the details @todras !
I did use your technique of spreading the sample on the bottom of my bowl over a large surface area. However, I loaded the brush using less water and then went to face lather with a very dry paste and slowly fed in a little water at a time.
I can imagine your technique being more successful. I'll try give it a try.
Thanks mate!

Razor 1st-2nd pass: Weck Sextoblade
Razor 3rd pass: BBS-1
Blade 1st-2nd pass: Personna Hairshaper (3)
Blade 3rd pass: Ladas (3)
That's what I meant of course: create a large surface area with the sample in a dish of your choosing and then load/add water until the lather on top is already shave ready...You are correct , but he is using a sample container not a full size puck. One of the small 10g containers that I use to send my samples out in so there is not the surface area to load thus the bottom of the bowl/scuttle technique
Thank you sir
That is just 'off the hook' as the kids these days like to say.
Very nice set-up & photo, @Sxot.
