    I found funny the obvious tongue in cheek scent description and how people found it off putting. It's one of my favourites soaps and sad to hear it will be gone, but given the amount of soaps already in the den, don't think I would ever get to finish even this one. R41 is my favorite for sure and have used it on a daily basis for a while

    I am also a returnee to DE Safety shaving, at the age of 81! Got the SAD syndrome & have spent my daughters inheritance on all things shaving. However, using a soap (I have both cream & soap) it seems to take forever to get a good bowl lather. In your case the soap was showing, stuck to the bowl for most of this video. And, ok we all all a bit nerdy with shaving, but over 10 minutes to make a lather! I have other things to do with my life. What about using the brush direct in the soap dish, then transfer to the bowl? I agree about contamination, but what do you think?

    • @DoubleAshaves
      @DoubleAshaves Месяц назад

      Thanks so much for watching! I’m happy to hear you made the return to traditional wet shaving! It’s truly a wonderful hobby with a great community of people. Yeah, using a soap can take longer. But can be done quickly if you add more lots of water at the start instead of what I did which was slowly add water. I just did that for educational purposes so people can see how the process works. It’s also more aimed at hobbyist who enjoy spending time shaving. But yes this method wouldn’t be that efficient if you’re running late to work. But like I said, if you start with a really wet brush instead of a damp one like I did, you will save time. I like to give people soap samples from my tubs, which is a big reason I like to scoop. Also adding water to the tub can reduce the soaps scent over time.

    Great to see you again Aaron, I couldn't do just weekly shave let alone longer, the beard already annoys me after 2 days and would prefer to shave every day except I don't quite get enough growth. I consider my largish "collection" of soaps (and other gear) part of my "hobby" so don't consider it a waste as such, a man needs a hobby, I'm only restricted by the tightening of our budget which has slowed my hobby down to a trickle. "Blueberry Muffin" sounds great for a fall & kitchen shave, olive oil can be a lather killer unless the Artisan knows how to use it properly. Take care brother👌🤠👌

      @@abdulthomas6821 thanks for watching Abdul! Haha yeah I’m not sure. I fall into weird shave habits sometimes. My current one seems to be to clear all the hair with one pass. But like you said, it’s not very efficient unless you’re using a super aggressive razor. But the more time shaving, the better. So i need to start getting back to my usual with and against pass routine. Have a great weekend!

I’ve also found that a large amount of soap is the secret to a great lather.

    How much water should be on my face when I apply this lather to my face? How many times should I add water droplets during Lathering?

    • @DoubleAshaves
      @DoubleAshaves Месяц назад

      Thanks for watching. I would say a normal amount of water on the face would be good. Like if you put your hands under the faucet and got your face wet before lathering. Then wet your face again at the start of the second pass and same with third. The more water the better. I wouldn’t apply my lather to a dry face. Although it could probably work, I still wouldn’t be comfortable doing it.

    😮 How did I lose that??? With this method you use, you skip the big air bubbles phase. It's insane how much density AND volume does you lather have, even with a small amount of soap. Your technique is really up there. Congratulations 👏🎉 PS One small advice if I'm allowed. Use a black bowl next time so the lather will be more distinct 👍👌

      Thanks so much for watching my friend! Always appreciate you stopping by! I’m happy you enjoy my method!

      Thanks so much for watching! I appreciate that a lot! I would say if you’re used to aggressive razors, or even mid aggressive, the r41 is definitely worth a try. You can get just the head from maggards if you want to save some money. My suggestion for a good lather is lots of soap with slow water additions. My observation from watching videos over the years is that most people don’t use enough soap. But most lathers would work fine, this is just how I prefer mine. Hope you have a great weekend.
