    Default building lather

    so i think i can talk my GF into at least swaping to good shave soap/cream but whats the best way to get a pile of lather fast

    could one use a natural sponge or one of those fluffy scrubber liquid body wash thingys was thinking load the sponge/ scrubbber and use your palm cupped a bit to make lather

    would this work
    or better yet how are you gals doing things

    You could try a puck soap and a scrubby that should work pretty well.

    Not sure what a scrubby is. It may be what I'm thinking of too. I'd try one of those net things my wife sometimes uses to wash with. Lather galore from shower cream so it would probably do it.

    When I first started I didn't have a brush yet. I just used a folded washcloth in a soap mug. It worked decent. It wasn't as good as a brush, but it worked.
    One of those lather builder units would probably do a nice job.

    Well, Butch, I would recommend a badger brush. :-P

    A while back I was joking around with making a lather machine for home use. Well I started, but haven't had the time to finish it. It was made from a commercial foaming soap dispenser and I used some kiss my face cream. I'm sure if you asked there are a couple of soapers here who could advise or make a proper cream consistency for this unit.

    Not necessarily wasteful, whatever is left over on the scrubby can still be used to wash the rest of her with...
