Sunday Daily Question Thread (Newbie Friendly) - July 23, 2023 - WetShaving

This is the place to ask beginner and simple questions. Some examples include: * Soap, scent, or gear recommendations * Favorite scents, bases, etc * Where to buy certain items * Identification of a razor you just bought * Troubleshooting shaving issues such as cuts, poor lather, and technique Please note these are examples and any questions for the sub should be posted here.

Does anyone find synthetic knots get worse over time? I’ve now had a couple go from super soft to quite soft but slightly scratchy like the very tips of the fibres break off leaving a subtly harsh contact surface. They still lather fine, just less pleasant to use.

I’ve only been wetshaving for 3 years, so my oldest synth is 3 years old and doesn’t get used all the time. Still, with all my synthetic brushes I haven’t noticed any change over time.

Do you bowl lather?

Thanks for the feedback. I face lather most of the time.
