    I watched the video and that’s almost exactly how I lathered when I started shaving in the '60s. Wet the brush, swizzle it around in the soap, apply, then shave (1-pass). I only did this until I killed the soap which was not new when I got it. I then “advanced” to canned goo only to return to this style of shaving in 2021.

      For fans of artisan soaps it might be a little cringy to watch, but there’s a certain utilitarian appeal to being able to shave like that. It probably works with most soaps, but I still enjoy the lathering process.

        Agree completely!
