Jayaruh #292: First Lathering

I plan to use Jayaruh #292 next week, so today, I put it through its first lathering with Soap Commander Renewal. That is my practice with all my natural hair brushes. Here is how it went.

Ready to go: Soap Commander Renewal, Turkish cup, JR#292.

Wet the brush, loaded for 25 seconds.

Making lather



Beautiful lather.

I let it sit for a while.

Very rich, thick lather.

Rinsed out and drying for Monday's first shave.
