Thanks! Splaying the knot after a while was a game changer for me. I tried this today with 3 different soaps and had my best results ever with all 3. Slowly kept adding water and splayed half way in or so & wow!
@@CosmoBarber by gold I meant general lathering ideas - like your scientific approach (even when not using samples), which is a great idea in my opinion and strangely this is the first time I'm coming across it... The general tip on dialing in was also appreciated.
In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" (Mitchells' Wool Fat based tallow soaps or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. Wheelchair Larry Happy New Year. Your Mileage may vary?
