Am I doing it right?

 

[alfredus]

Lather can be very personal, but from my point of view @pvsampson : you have too much air and water in comparison to soap

Lather should be:
A - slick, so your blade can glide over your face
B - protective, so there should be a cushion on your face

Large air bubbles pop in front of your blade. This will stop your glide and lead most likely to weepers and/or cuts. You want a thick creamy lather with no visible large air bubbles and a shiny/runny consistency

Nearly two years in on this thread and @alfredus is still not bored with it. I'm impressed! I got bored the day you started it!
